Vegas 2009

Warm Weather

It is finally Spring. Warm and the grass is growing. Now I need to finish up all the indoor work so that I can perhaps garden this year. I thought pots of tomatoes, basil, lettuces, cukes. Guess I had better check on the mower, too. Today I am off and will knit,
walk Cricket, and sew. Dinner is already made which will make today an easy day.

New Year

Already into March and I have gone through the photos and cleaned the house. Well still have the garage and the den to do. I will attempt to blog more often. Rainy this weekend, of course it is because I am off. That's OK. Maybe I can finish a few more projects.

Quite Slow

I haven't done much blogging, or cleaning, or anything else it seems. I have gotten out my swaps except for one more that I need to finish this week. I did get the Christmas cards and gifts out in time (I hope) for Christmas. Maybe 2011 will be better. Although if I attempt anything, it will be Feb. 1st since we will be on vacation part of the month. I will get the Vegas pics from October on here also. Since the laptop that I am using isn't really mine, I can't upload pics or anything. Happy Holidays and I hope that next year I can fix my tendency to procrastinate.

So Slow

I don't get on here much anymore. Well I didn't before either. I am getting caught up on some projects. Still have a few to finish, but at least I know what I am doing. I hope this coming year to be more active and organized. Yeah right! I have cleaned out some of the garage and really need to finish that and then begin going through the closets. This coming year I would like to do:
1. Sort photos, probably toss all the negatives.
2. Fix all the damaged furniture-tile the tabletops, new covers for the chairs,
new lampshades, fix the broken chair, and refinish the mission oak chair.
3. Get Etsy up and running.
4. Ebay everything else that isn't needed.
5. Lose weight and exercise, maybe join a gym.
6. Clean extensively-touch up paint, repaint trim, clean carpets, fix whatever.
7. Save, save, save.
8. Get a laptop if I can't repair the old one.
9. Knit socks from the German Verena magazines.

I think that should be enough to try to accomplish.

Moving Along

I guess that I don't post too quickly here. Working on getting caught up on projects. I have cleaned out a bit in the garage, taking a couple of boxes to Goodwill and tossing out others. I will put things on ebay next week and take a few more things to Goodwill. After vacation, I will definitely get things on Etsy. It will be a bargain for the covers, I will go over and press and make sure all the totes, covers and bags are good for selling. I will also put bunnies, the wire basket, and other supplies on too. I suppose we are moving along slowly. I hope to start repairing things next year in preparation for getting our own home. New lampshades, recover chairs, tile the tables, repair the wooden chairs, ect.
I hope to finish up my sewing projects before vacation-bear clothes, porcelain doll outfit, wallet, pillow, monkey, shawl, and newest swap.
I'll keep on cleaning and also packing some things up so I am not having to dust so much. Next on the list is getting myself a laptop. The HP touch look interesting but that will be with my ebay and etsy sales.
