I'm working on treating my studying like a full-time job, but I'm starting to allow myself to take the kind of breaks I can only take here at the house, namely working on craft projects, walking the dog, etc. Sooo ( Read more... )

I've gotten up with Tom two days this week (yes, I know it's Tuesday) and gotten started really early with my day, studying like a mad woman. I've also been crocheting every night, and I've started the scrapbook. I received the material swatches from Mom for Sharee's baby blanket, so we'll be talking soon about how to organize all that. I've ( Read more... )

I am SUCKING at this month's goal. Today is the first day of this week that I've even CONSIDERED studying, and I have yet to crack the notebook open (yes, you read the time stamp correctly - it's 3:friggin:43 in the AFTERNOON! *sigh ( Read more... )

So... what topic for this community would make you POST MORE about your goals and progress in September ( Read more... )

I have been absolutely horrible about our walls in the living room. The walls are plaster and have all these weird OLD stick-up hanger thingies. So, since we haven't had money to repaint the room yet (and thus take off all the hanger thingies), I just haven't bothered putting any new nails/screws up to hold stuff. This is partially 'cause I'm ( Read more... )

I'm just feelin' all kinds of crafty this month! I bought some wooden picture frames with my birthday money (back in May), and did my first set of family pics to put up in the living room. I have a great black n white "moment" shot from my brother's wedding and really adorable pics of their kids playing in the snow at my mom's wedding earlier ( Read more... )

I've been talking with my mom, and she is going to fly me down to Texas at the end of the year to be there for my sister, who's due Jan 6th (but wants to try to induce around New Year's Eve - we'll see). Since the afghan is for her (the pregnant sister), I've decided to give myself a bit of a break and extend my deadline to a month or so before I ( Read more... )

I have been steadily doing squares as I get time, and I now only need 6 more light green ones, and I'll be through with that color. I still have a TON to do, but it's getting there! Yay for progress!
