Redefining

Well, again, I have let this blog go. I really haven't been crafting a whole lot lately. I found a new craft - knitting, which I love because i can take it anywhere with me. I have also found Ravelry - an online knit community which is awesome. I am in a few swaps there!

I have also joined Becky Higgins Project Real Life Class on Big Picture Classes which is amazing. She provides so many insightful messages and really makes me reflect on my own life. She truly is an inspiration!

I have decided that I am going to concentrate on my family and my life for the next little while. I have joined a gym, got a personal trainer and have really tried to focus on work-home balance. I'll let you know how that goes!

Cheers!

Sock Monkey Finished!!!

Well, I finally finished the sock monkey I've been working on for the past 9 months! The arms were a little wonky but I'm finished! The girls just love it and take turns sleeping with him every night!

I also finished a cute scarf that I've been dying to try using Patons Pirouette yarn.

New Day, New Year!

So again, I haven't exactly been keeping up with my goals, but I did manage to make four complete doll bedding sets with pillows, and I am almost finished the girls' quilts. As I mentioned in a previous post, I read The Happiness Project and loved it! I am starting this new year with that project and I am so excited (I have downloaded the tools and started my charts already!) Also this year, I am committed to my health. I don't know why I haven't made this commitment sooner, but after the recent death of my uncle and other medical issues in my family, I am recommitting to my own health. I have signed up for a half marathon - look out, here I come! (This is also an item on bucket list that I can check off 😊). My third goal this year is to become a better family historian. I have signed up for a Photoshop class and I have started a project life album (which I am going to finish this year!) Cheers to a new day and a new year!
