Dog

This little doggy is from the March of Dimes charity. I know nothing about the charity, the dog having been a Valentines Gift from my mother many years ago.

Wile I was drawing this I remembered why I avoided organics in my ink drawings. It was still a nice out come for all my worry.

In school news I'm done with 3/4 tests. I have mild confusion one of the grades, at best I got an A, at worst a B for my Human Growth and Development class. English I got a high B. Now just for my math grade and to take my Bio test.

Thread

Class was canceled and I spent much of the day aimlessly acting on impulse. I took a walk, I tinkered with a few projects, I watched shows, and read web comics. I even picked up a seemingly abandoned sewing project.

This little guy I won at a Church raffle.

Good Will and StarWars

Sometime earlier this month I got to talking about GoodWill and used Stephen King books, how the store always had them. Shortly after this conversation I was on my way to lunch when a traffic accident caused me stop at a different fast food place, right next to a GoodWill. I couldn't resist, I had to look. What I found wasn't Stephen King, well....one Stephen King book, but StarWars. Lots and lots of StarWars. I never knew there where so many books about it. o.o I swear a fan had to die for that collection to be given to charity.

I happily took home the original trilogy, which I feel very fortunate to find, as well as the Han Solo Trilogy and The Lando Calrissian Adventures. If I can get the Han Solo Adventures I would have the whole story arc. <3 I sound like such a nerd and I'm loving ever second of it. The first book, the only one I believe to be written by George Lucas, is dreamy. That is the best way to put it for me. It has the elements that make me fall in love.

Where there are multiple authors, how many I don't know, for the long series, if the original is any indication, I'll have a long obsession ahead of me. I'm the type of person when I get into a series I want ALL of the series. Anything and everything I can get my hands on that go back to the original as best it can. Here I thought my eying Doctor Who books would get me into enough trouble.

Size: 2 1/2 by 4 1/2
Time: 4 hours

Granny Square

Quick Run Down: "American Ride" By Toby Keith is an addicting song.

February 10th

My favorite red yarn is so hard to take photos with.
Worse yet I'm almost out, I have bigger bouncy balls then this poor roll.
That didn't sound right but it is the best comparison I have.

February 8-9th

About yesterday: Have you ever looked at a daycare worker in the middle of all those children and imagine what their headache must be like? I had one of those type headaches yesterday. From there it shot down into my stomach and fizzled out to my nerves. I'm not sure how I made it home but I know I immediately went to sleep and stayed that way till well into the morning in which everything was fine.

Beyond that I have a busy weekend filled with papers and math. I tried to use the one day I was willing to do no homework to create something nice to make up for yesterday but I didn't get very far. Too distracted it would seem. I had the house to myself and I loved it.

Essays always seem to spring up at the last second even though they are the first thing you are told about.

February 6th

Today I saw two puppies in the road wile I turned the corner. It was scary, no way to stop wile going 60. They scampered up the small hill just in time. I looked for them on my way back but didn't see them again.

February 5th

I have too many projects going all at once and yet I am loving it. I have posted two work in progress pieces last month and seems like they are being forgotten as I type. They where not that good any way. I finally got around to starting a commission piece and it is nearly done. The piece is a custom cat. More granny squares are on their way and I have plans to work on my latest scarf. Wish me luck.

My school work is also being done. I plotted out my essay, read my Biology for my test on Monday, as well as remembered I have math for today. All in all I'm doing better then most days.

I've also picked up my neglected reading again. I'm even posting this before midnight. Great things happen when you get up in the morning.

February 4th: Granny Squares

I was talking to a friend who also crochets and I mentioned I had never made a granny square before. I've always thought they where awesome. I wanted my first granny square to be an amazing project of ridiculous proportions. As it is I can't invest in that much yarn at the moment and had to scale back. I have a few ideas of what I would like to do and needed to practice before I started. With Valentines in mind, and my many pink yarns, I made one. Just a bit of a problem with that....my purple edging back fired and made the photo all purple. Nice picture, totally inaccurate.

Doilies Mystify Me
No seriously, they do, well the makers do. How can they do such patterns and offer them so cheaply to sale?

I'm not 100% sure how doilies constitute Valentines but I associate Valentines with lace, I feel they count. I also felt a moment without a heart post would be nice.

February 2nd

My twitchy need to cut all my hair off affected me today. I love doing it but at times I think it is far too rash to cut my own hair all the time and hope it comes out well. Also need to spend the weekend studying Biology. Wish me luck!

February 1st

Every day till Valentines day I hope to post something Holiday related. I made a heart pattern and have already made a few in a variety of colors and yarn types.

On a completely unrelated note: I hate talking ads on the internet that just start playing. So please, please stop buying mucinex so they will have to stop.
