Checking in
This week I have been working solely (crochet wise anyway) on my next magazine project. It’s not finished yet, but when it’s blocking I’ll take a sneak peek picture to post on the blog for you. The picture above is a chain made mostly by Drama Queen (see my post Super Secret Code Names) for her entry into Jimbo’s Kinder Crochet Week competition. He wound up making a hook for each child that was entered because there were so few. So, each of my 3 oldest girls got a genuine wooden Jimbo crochet hook of their very own. They are so cute!
In other news, I had a day yesterday that is a sort of day I dislike. I never managed to get my brain engaged in my day, so I sort of drifted from one thing to another, not really knowing what to do next, not using time very well, and having lots of (minor) catastrophes. When I have a day like this I find that it is the result of poor planning. I do much better when I make a to-do list. So, today I planned, and have had a marvelously purposeful day.
Also, I am giving a trial run to two other social networking sites. I have registered on Twitter, and you can find me there as @AprilCreates. If I’ve done this right, clicking that link will take you to my Twitter profile, but I have also added a button in the right sidebar that will allow you to follow me on Twitter. So far, and if I continue in the same pattern, you’ll probably find more non-crochet related tidbits in my tweets than you will on my blog. Also, I have started a Facebook Fan Page, that I will endeavor to update about as frequently, and with the same info as my blog, so you could follow me either place and not miss anything by only keeping up with one of them. The fan page is April Creates, nice theme huh? There is also a link to that in the right sidebar, but I’m not sure its working just yet, however the link in the body of this post, just above, should work. Well, so I’ve started these, I’m not sure yet how they will go. You can join me for the experiment if you like, but I make no promises as to the duration of the two just yet.
Hopefully, I’ll post a sneak peek pic soon. Until then, happy crocheting!
