Finally, it really is all about me and me is crafting! I need two of me to stay on top of all that I want to do in a given day. I use my morning energy (my best) for blogging, crafting, and as little else as possible. I use my afternoon energy for boring chore and errand-filled life that gets in the way of crafting but is um...well sort of necessary in order to survive. Evenings take on a social hue and I can be found with people (husband, friends, maybe friends, but not too many relatives) and usually with knitting in my lap - its most conducisve to socializing at the moment. I actually knit in public and am not ashamed of it at all. To date I still must follow the lemming-like pattern, but hope to design my own one day if I can wrap my brain around the math - not my brains favorite passtime... Right now I am working hard to prep my Etsy shop for the upcoming fall. Im a big swapper and the crafts most on my list are paper, altered, recyled junk brought to new life, sewing, beading, and of course, knitting. Im toying with felting and I can cook like nobodys business.
