Finished project #1 for the week


I finished Emily's soaker. I think I am hooked on the pattern! Katrina's free soaker pattern is awesome! It fits like a glove and Emily seems to like it! I think I am going to be hooked on making them from fleece!

Maybe I should retitle the blog to lazy instead of procrastinating...

I guess that's really what procrastination is -- at least in my case. Its laziness. I have so many started projects to finish, and why haven't I done so? I can try to say I have been busy with the kids (which I have been), but I just haven't taken the time to finish them. I finished knitting a washcloth last night that I started over a month ago. OVER A MONTH TO FINISH A WASHCLOTH. That's not good. Especially since I can usually knit one in a few hours. I also was able to cut out a fleece soaker for Emily, but I didn't sew it yet even though that will only take about 15 minutes and it will be done.

So, I will be trying something new this week. No being lazy!!! I will only start projects that can be finished the day I start them, and I am going to try to finish my already started projects!

On another note -- I have a job interview tomorrow. This will be my third interview out of over 15 jobs applied for. That's not really a confidence booster!!! I know that God will put me in the job I am supposed to have -- I just need to be strong and remember its on His time and not mine!!! And, I have to keep my eyes and ears open to hear His plan for me! Not something that is easy for me when I think I should be the one in charge!

I can't get over how big the kids are getting! Emily is almost 8 months already and Dekker is becoming more the little boy everyday instead of a toddler. He is learning so many new things and just becoming his own person! It truly is an amazing thing to wwatch and be a part of!
