My week

Weigh ins lately have been good. I was stalling for what seemed like the longest time and last week I weighed in 3 pounds lighter!

 

I just bought "The Obesity Code" by Dr. Jason Fung and Dr. Bernstein's Diabetes Solution by Dr. Richard K. Bernstein and I have been devouring them! So much good information and recourses! I will do a better and more detailed review when I finish them, so look for that!

On a crafting note, I have finally snatched a Hippo for Easter hank of sock yarn from Lolo Did It's shop. I've tried every Saturday for four weeks now! I love the idea of having a colorway for each of the major holidays! I also ordered a mini of her Violet Beauregarde to do knit the cuffs, heels and toes in. I think her yarn and color ways are just amazing! Some day I'll get brave and sell my hand dyed yarns too! Speaking of, I also just got my order of long hanks, I am going to attempt some self striping yarn. I saw someone knitting some socks that were in the Portland Trailblazer colors and I knew my sister would love to have something made from that. Well the yarn alone was $30.00 and it was custom so I would have to wait 4-6 weeks for it! No thanks! I think I'll give it a go. I hear Black is tricky to dye so it will be interesting. I think I will dye up mini's of it until I get it right. 

I also got my Anne of Green Gables and Sookie St. James sock yarns in from The Yarn at Home Mom. She does beautiful work too and I've purchased from her multiple times! 

The other day I went to one of my local fabric stores, Fabric Depot and bought some of the Anne of Green Gables fabric from Riley Blake as well as some of their Goldilocks and the Three Bears fabric.

I have already made one bag from the material and I just adore it! 

I have a lot of ideas of what I want to make, finding the time and energy is the problem for the most part! Some day I'll have it all figured out and have lots of things in my shop for sale!

I am still going to school every day to help one of my kids in their class. He really does seem to need more one on one help. And he really lacks the motivation to do the work on his own. He loves to goof off and he is really easily distracted. 

So that's all for now. I will hopefully have some things up in my Etsy shop this week, it may just be retired Stampin' Up! stamps and things so until then... 

Have a great day
