A couple of weeks ago, I was working on the Pirate Pal, a free pattern from the Lion Brand website….when my co-worker asked if I would make him a blanket. So the past couple of days that is what I set out to do. He wanted it to be green, but I knew he would like it better if it wasn’t just one solid color. I chose avocado green and natural heather. I am very pleased with how it is turning out. Here is a photo of how its looking so far!
Its funny and ironic how my last post was about my blog neglectfulness…..I still continue to neglect my poor blog. I feel bad, but sometimes I can’t even find the time to live! I keep leaving myself reminders, but they are in so many different places, and then I forget to check them and all that. Ugh….I keep wanting to just start over. My room is a mess, I am a mess, everything is just a mess! mess! mess!Tomorrow = my new start (I mean it this time!)
I will start by having a clean room and workspace, also using ONE planner for my reminders and such.
that is all…for now.
I will post updates so that I can keep myself in check
By the way, as far as crafts go…I am currently working on a blanket for myself, just finished a sweater for lucky see picture below (not very good quality) and I still have to start a blanket for Nick and beanies for Justin and Brandon. Lots of work! =]
I don’t like to be one to complain too much, but I hate being sick (as I am sure no one would actually enjoy it). But anyways, this is the 4th day and it has gradually gotten worse and worse. I am at the point where I do not even want to get out of bed! I have not missed work and I am not looking forward to going and being all sick. But, I need money and my coworkers count on me. I love my job, but I don’t like to be there when I am sick. Well, I will hope for the best and that today goes by super fast!
Love and wishes of no one else being sick anytime soon,

So here I sit sad and weary…I feel as though I am not a very productive person, even though I could be if I really wanted to. I know I could do anything I wanted to as long as I try. BUT, today I am feeling “woe is me” sad and it sucks. I feel as though I have a million things to do and not enough in which to do them all, but I know I am just fooling myself. I need to bite the bullet and just start on something and not give up until it is completely finished. For example, I was all psyched about finishing that awesome black and gray striped handbag and I did finish the crochet part of it, but I still have to put in the lining. I have all material I need, I just have’t gotten around to doing it. I think I need to first of all organize and clean my space so that I do have somewhere to work and then I need to just tackle all these half finished projects and just do them!
I have also been dying to take pictures of all my work so that I can have a visual and not just ramblings about them. I know that would make my posts more interesting…so that is one more thing to add to my list. Hopefully this week will mark my new beginning.
Lots of Love,
