Apparently, I love to start many projects. I just don’t love to finish them in a timely fashion. Currently these are all works on my needles and hooks.
Yes, that’s 5 projects in various stages of being worked on. And these are only the ones that are in rotation right now. Last week I found a half done queen size crocheted blanket in a bag on my shelf. I started that about a year ago. I also have a sweater that I’m making for my sister that I’ve been making for a year. I must do better for real.
So this year I am trying something new. I am keeping a book log on the blog. Every year I make a goal of reading a certain number of books, and after a while, usually within 2-3 weeks I will forget to log the books. My goal this year is 100 books, and they include audiobooks, graphic novels, and magazines. Here’s my list for the month of January.
1. The Book Tour – Andi Watson (graphic novel)
2. Silence of the Lambs – Thomas Harris (audiobook)
3. The Long Call – Ann Cleeves (audiobook)
4. Blindman’s Bluff – Faye Kellerman (audiobook)
5. Nina- a story of Nina Simone – Traci N. Todd (audiobook)
6. Bloodless – Lincoln Child, Douglas Preston (audiobook)
7. Unsub – Meg Gardiner (audiobook)
I am trying to make more time to actually read more physical books. I work a full time job, and I also own a small business making handmade items, so finding the time to sit and read isn’t always easy. I have made a vow to read from an actual book at least 20 minutes per day, but to be honest that only happens maybe twice a week. At least I haven’t stopped trying.

Though I still haven’t made posting here a weekly habit, I have been extremely busy making and creating. Here’s some photos of what I’ve been up to.
