Reading “Dream Stuff” by David Malouf

Well, when I started making the mini muk-luks she has a “Magic Book” that she keeps her ideas in 1 place. Kind of like at Ravelry, but at Ravelry I always get interested in the chatter and conversations going on, then I get inspired with fresh new ideas and I’m lost again!

In my mind I’ve made some of the most wonderful projects – yeah – right.
If I was able to work everything that I have in mind then I’d probably live to be 100 yrs old!

My plan is to mark off what I’ve worked on each day. Then when a project is finished the list should be shorter. The new ideas I get will just have to get recorded in my Ravelry Notebook.

How does that sound?

It’s a plan anyway.

Today, I sent off a starter crochet set for my daughter Bonnie who lives in Texas.
That is a Great feeling and a lot of love went with it.

I read 2 chapters from the book I’m reading.

I worked on the Morning Mood Doily. This has about 4 more rounds. It will probably be the biggest doily I’ve made so far. It’s supposed to be worked with yarn. Oh how yuck! Blah. I’m using some sz 5 thread that I’ve had for about 5 yrs now. That’s one of those balls of thread that was on sale and you know what that means…can’t pass up a bargain!

Tomorrow I will check off my list what I’ve actually worked on. Just to keep myself in check!
