Still Waiting

Still nothing new to report. I did manage to injure my thumb with a crochet hook while trying to imagine something new to make. I stabbed under the corner of the nail so many times making a cord that I am not, under any circumstances, picking up a crochet hook today. Other than that caveat, I have no plan again today. So again I begin my day with crossed fingers and hope for something, anything, to give.

Any Moment Now

I was hoping something would sell over the weekend, so I would have something interesting to make, but no such luck. Most of this weekend's family time was devoted to playing Zelda. We went on some walks too. Oh, and I read a lot. Now you see why I didn't bother writing on Friday. In fact the only thing I've made in days was a really long crochet cord. That's it. I've no real purpose in mind for this really long cord. I'm just using up the end of a ball of thread and keeping my hands busy at the same time. Hopefully something will sell soon, or I will get an idea soon. I suppose either option is equally as unlikely at this point, but you never know, things could turn around any moment now.

Nothing To See Here

I'm only here out of habit today. I couldn't think of anything new to make yesterday, so I read and played video games. Yep, I'm a grown-up. I mean I still spent the morning on school with the kids and one of them had an eye appointment, so taking care of that is adult, right? I'll try to make an effort to do something worth note today, but don't count on it. Here's a photo of one of the cats from a couple of months ago...sorry it's all I've got to liven this up.

Done

The baby blanket is all done. I actually got it finished right after schooling wrapped for the day. I didn't even pick up the video game once during the day either. Instead I read a lot and picked up the half done, well not half, maybe quarter-done, Armenian lace necklace that I had abandoned when I started the blanket in the first place.

This is the other one I made when I did the triangle ones. I had it made in the cream thread so I felt the need to do it in black as well. So that took some of my afternoon. Of course that leaves me with no projects to start today with. I'm sure I'll think of something, because if I don't, it'll be back to the video game and that just doesn't give me the same feeling of accomplishment that making tangible objects does.

Um

So we got the newest Nintendo system over the weekend(thanks tax refund) and I'm afraid that, along with the new Legend of Zelda game, stole much of my day away. I didn't touch them over the weekend as I had an order to take care of and of course a blanket to knit. Well that and an entire family to compete with for time with them.  I thought I would reward myself with a couple of hours of play time in the afternoon. Before I knew it, it was time to start dinner. Luckily I can still knit while I'm doing schooling and got some of that done during the morning. I'm not going to say that that won't happen again, because it is most likely to. I can just cross my fingers that I sell something that needs making soon, so I don't let my life waste away into Hyrule.
