No. None of the three new projects I brought are listed above. Deal with it. This is how things are going to role. I think. Something like that.

 

Now. We're traveling. I'm on a boat right now. I'll likely have photos after we get back, along with a wrap-up post, but probably not next Sunday. 

 

I hope you're had a lovely week and upcoming holiday season (if that's your jam). Otherwise, happy Solstice (since we just passed that), have a lovely couple weeks :)
