Week one project challenge completed

I created a large tunisian crochet hook from a dowel. I am making a blanket with it for next week's  challenge.

Missed yesterday

I missed posting yesterday. It was a super busy day and I just forgot. Now I can beat myself up mentally or I can relax and just keep counting. Today I choose to be positive and just keep going.

Day 4 of "Blog a day"challenge

Blogger app

I am so glad blogger has an app. It means I can blog on a mobile device while running around to get my family to various activities. I will be able to keep up with posting now.

Day 3 of "Blog a day challenge "

My Calendar

I am going to be very busy this year and I know I have to keep everything straight.... but I also know keeping it all in my head will not work. So I have pulled out the trusty calendar again.  I know I accomplish more when I document what I have to finish.  So this year I am going to work on creating goals and scheduling time to work on them in my planner/calendar.
I am going to work on creating a goal budget sheet.... where I decide how much time each week I want to spend on each goal/area of my life.
 Do you have goals you want to work on.... or have a favorite calendar you love to use?
leave me a comment :)

Day 2 of "blog a day" challenge

reboot of the reboot

so... yep didn't really post well. My daughter did an animation a day challenge.... she is on day 784... So I am going to do "write a blog post a day" challenge.  for at least 365 days.
This will be "my things I am doing combined with things I am thinking about" blog ... till I better figure out a direction for myself. SO  today's post:

I have realized about myself that I am happiest if I am either creating actual objects (things in string or paper that are usable and can be held in your hand) or if I am researching education and writing about it.  Without creation.... I get depressed.   So I decided to research common core math (the research behind it and the actual application behind it) and create a dictionary of terms for parents.  I have also been working on crochet items for the home like baskets and mason jar covers.

Of course on top of all of that... I tutor at local community college, home school three kids, make sure 4 college kids have what they need, and babysit. yep... not too busy.

all are welcome to  join me on this blog journey.  Anyone want to also do "a blog a day"?.... let me know.

Day 1 blog post.... complete

reboot after 6 years

So in 2009, I went back to college. Over the next five years, I completed my AA and a BA in English.  Needless to say, that took most of my time. Now that I have graduated, I have time and want to get back to blogging. This blog is going to be my place to think things through.  Things that are happening that I just want to mull over (not a journal). These things may not be what I believe but will be my way of working through what I believe by playing both sides. Maybe this is silly, but I am someone who works through decisions by talking.
