I made a little octopus while riding in the car the other day… I still have to put on the eyes and mouth, but for the most part it’s complete.
Gonna get motiviated to make some more complex dolls. Can’t wait!

So, yeah. I’m most definitely not making these bracelets—and for a few reasons:
1. Not quite sure where the paracord materials are located/stored
2. I don’t talk to John anymore. Even though I could, I don’t; and wouldn’t make and send him bracelets in my free time. I’d do that for people who are actually active in my life.
3. The initial thrill of the project is gone.
However!
If for some reason, on the rare date when I do find the materials and get the bug to make them again—I will make some and do the right thing and send them off. But that’s doubtful I’ll feel that bug again. Until then… I’m giving up!
Since I got a schnazzy new camera for Christmas, I’ve had no excuse not to start taking lots of pictures. So, I’ve taken to carrying my camera around with me. Granted, there are times and occassions that call for picture taking when I don’t take any and other times when pictures are taken when there’s really no need. Then again, there’s always a need for pictures. :) I try to get at least one picture in of a good event, like a wedding or what not. Sometimes I feel like the camera is so obtrusive. People, except for a friend who covers her face whenever the snapper is out and my dad and those other oddities, love to be in pictures. Plus, I need pictures to remind me that I’m actually doing stuff with my life. “Why Yes! I do have fun/hang out with friends/go on trips/am generally cool! I have the pictures to prove it!” Even though I only need to prove it to myself. My goal and determination is renewed! A-Picture-taking I will go!
