Blogging is the new black?

I went to a very uplifting Family Home Evening where the lesson was on journal writing. I do not like writing in a book and having to keep track of it. At times I feel like my life is not interesting enough for a journal to be written about my life. I know now that every life has a story and each story is priceless and should be written down to be preserved and to show our posterity what we have made of our lives. There is a famous quote that says something like a man learns from his mistakes, a genius learns from the mistakes of others. We do not have time on this earth to make all the mistakes we want, we must learn from others what not to do so we can progress. The best way for us to learn is from reading about other lives. This blog for me is mainly for my crafts. I have a long list and want to complete as much of them in this life as I can. I also may include my feelings from time to time. I want this to be a fun and uplifting experiment. I want to feel something from this blog. I am hoping for accomplishment, but just it being here for me to go to will suffice. There are so many things I want to do but there is so little time, so now I go in order to get things done.

I am starting off the year with a huge project and a quick deadline. I am working on a baby blanket for one of my very best friends, My uncle Ben. He has been there for me through most of my life and when he lived with us (my parents and siblings) we got even closer and I am so excited for the baby!!! We found out that it is going to be a boy so I am making him a baby blanket and a matching(ish) beanie. The beanie is done and I will take a picture and upload it shortly along with the progress of my baby blanket. It is about a third done but I keep putting off what I am going to do next. I want to add some pictures but I do not know which ones.

If there is anyone out there reading this please send me some inspiration (and possibly a pattern (that's ok if its too much just inspiration then)). Well it is time to enjoy the stars and good company. Until next time. ^-^




Currently Listening to Skillet radio on Pandora with every now and again interjections from my cellular device.
