What’s up 2024?

I can’t believe it has been 76 days since my last post! What have I been up to? Lots of reading, crocheting, and working on myself. Blogging hasn’t been at the top of my To Do list lately but I really have to get back into the habit. I’m way behind on book reviews. Eeek!

So, what is in store for 2024? Here is my work-in-progress plan for the year:

  • Commit to writing at least one book review per month to be posted on or around the 15th.
  • Continue eating healthier and track what I eat.
  • Come up with a food prep plan that will work for Mike and me.
  • Continue crocheting and learning new techniques.
  • List 5 crocheted items on either my Etsy or Tedooo shop to get started selling my crafts.
  • Start a notebook of crochet ideas
  • Be happy.

March 24, 2023 – Craft therapy: Positive Potato

I saw a positive potato that someone crocheted and had to find instructions. I finally found them.

He still needs arms and his uplifting sign but here he is – Positive Potato.

What have you made lately? Was it fun? Did it lift your spirits like my potato friend did for me?

Thanks for reading.

What I did on my vacation

We were off work last week doing work around the house. In between chores and projects, I spent some time crafting. I am really enjoying crocheting. I’m getting more confident in my skills. I participated in a mystery crochet-along. The parts of the crochet pattern came out every other day. At the end we had a finished product. Here’s some pictures of the crafts I worked on this week.

Hopefully I’ll be back to regular posts this week.
