New Series: Stuff On Sunday

Since I’m junk with timelines and challenges (except those I MUST do) let’s see how this works. 😛

The point — since I started seriously crafting — a whopping 35 days ago, I’ve gotten a lot of inspiration from other craft bloggers.  It’s hard to bookmark every single one and “pinning” is so time consuming to me.  I don’t know how the chronic pinners do it; they have my eternal gratitude.  To that end, I’m adding my inspiration to this here craft diary.   That way, I’ll spend less time with my absent-mindedness trying to track down what I’ve seen, loved, but didn’t save.  My goal is to spend less time online, more time crafting and living.

Some things you’ll see — an inspiration picture (taken by me or some other source), a quote, a video, a tip, some links, a project, a blog — something that inspires … on Sunday … so you and I can have a head-start to our crafty week.  How about it? 

That’s rhetorical … you don’t HAVE TO answer ….  😛  But you can if you want to.  😀

This week’s goodies is for ALL you granny square loving, afghan making crafters out there ( yes Opal, I’m talking about you 😀 ). I got this list from Stix On The Beach: Tales from the Happiest Hooker On Earth:

 Now go knock some squares or start a knitted afghan out this week!!!  Be quick … Fall’s almost here!!!

Vacation Buzz

I’m on vacation — a much needed one!   😀

I’m having such a blast I’m going to ask for additional days!

Stocked up pleasure reading materials today at the library — 11 books baby!!!

Did grad school orientation.

Reconnected with an old friend.

Did some stuff around my house that I’ve been putting off for lack of time!

Did some hooking today after not touching my crochet stuff for months!!!  Woohoo!

Mani/pedi/facial scheduled for tomorrow!!!

I’d provide proof but my camera batteries died today!  Ugh!!!  So you’ll have to take my word for it.

Stay cool everyone!!!  😀
