Happy Sunday!
I really wanted to pop in on WIP Wednesday but I just didn't get around to it...and then I wanted to pop in and say, "HIHIHI!" one other day this week and that just didn't happen either. ::sigh::
Sometimes I feel like my life is so hectic (and it is, sometimes)...I feel a little guilty, actually.
But, nevermind that. It's Sunday and that means that we're heading into a new week for my Self-Imposed Year of Projects, my fifteenth week, in fact.
So, let's talk about that...

I have the desire to start something else again. I'm not sure what that "something else" is going to be but the urge is there again. And, of course, the designing bug. That's a totally different beast, though...and I still can't find my graph paper so it's not going so well. I know I just saw it within the last couple weeks so I know it's nearby but I just haven't found it. ::sigh::
Anyway, that's about all I have going on. I'm trying to keep it short and sweet this week. I hope to be back with photos or something sometime this week, perhaps a review of some sort. Or not. Next week starts the Fourth Annual Knitting & Crochet Blog Week and I plan to participate. That may mean I'll be light on posts this week. I just don't know. I never know.
I hope you all have a lovely week :)
I find when I'm at the heel turn and the gusset turn I need to just concentrate and get it done. I can't really jump from one project to the next. Some weeks are just too busy to post often. We'll see you when you can!
ReplyDeleteUnderstand completely. I didn't make it for WIPW either, but did make FOF. My list doesn't seem to change much either...come sit beside me and we'll wine together. lol
ReplyDeleteI just think it's a busy time for everyone. I've found the same thing and I'm retired! But there were storms, taxes, Easter and then there's mowing now and gardening and the yarn is sitting there until I fall into bed at night which is later because it's light out don't ya know! It's almost busier than Christmas and just about as pricey! LOL!
ReplyDeleteI think you do fantastic considering you're a young Mom! Cast on something new....you deserve it!
I'm with Sam...this is a really busy time..and you've had a very busy life lately! I can only have 2 wip's at any given time...I am not very good moving back and forth between projects..tend to screw them up! Hope you get some well deserved rest and maybe things will not seem so hectic!
ReplyDeleteDo what feels right at the time. You have a toddler at home and just moved. You do what you can. I was planning on participating this year. Last year I fell off the wagon after awhile. Bt I have designing to do so I think I'm a gonna stick with that.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you're doing well on the list, I know you're really busy, especially with a toddler. And I can't wait to see some of your designs!
