keeping busy

all while i was engaged, my friend caitlin (who was also engaged) and i used to wonder what life would be like when we weren't planning a wedding.  it was as if we'd forgotten how to do anything expect tie ribbon and futz with budget spreadsheets. 

now that post-wedding life has arrived, i'm bored and yes, 
i've forgotten how to keep myself busy.

i decided that i needed to find some new things to occupy my time.  ryan started attending a tennis clinic and got super into hockey this season - go bruins! i love taking photos, but i've already done a class for that and my usual subjects (max and ollie) are totally sick of me. 

so, with some brainstorming help from ryan, i took a knitting class at Bead+Fiber in the  SoWa district. i'm terrible, but slowly working towards knitting a really excellent arm band (even ryan doesn't want it).  
maybe soon i'll graduate to a scarf or something more useful like that. 

the highlight of my week, though, is a cake decorating class 
with my friend harlisa put on by Michael's.  
it's awesome. 
i'm not terrible at it.

i definitely recommend this class to anyone who is looking for something fun to do during the week (or all you newlyweds looking for a new hobby).  ryan has also enjoyed the fruits (sweets?) of my labor and once this class is over we'll probably be 10-15lbs overweight.  

i guess my next venture will be something involving the gym.
