Not good at dealing with the "stuff" 13 months ago

Too much mistrust and people who look at you like you are only talking to them to sell them something. Too much interference between personal and private life. I need lines that say “this is business” and “this is me” and with a home business those lines get blurred.

learn to sew, knit, and quilt (read all 2 entries…)

On the right track, but slowly 13 months ago

Well, I did get the old sewing machine tuned and working, have made curtains for the kids’ rooms, the kitchen and our room, and finished my first patchwork quilt for my daughter’s twin bed. It’s cute, but by no means perfect. I am currently “working” on a quilt for my son- I start, quit, go back weeks later and do a bunch, quit… I’ll finish eventually. It’s a lot of work, and I decided to do denim and cotton this time. He really wants a quilt, though, so I will get it done at the very latest by Christmas, if I can help it.
I started learning to knit, and lost interest as we were in the middle of traveling. I did like it, though, and I am sure I will pick that back up soon.

get in shape again (read all 2 entries…)

Still working on it... take 2 13 months ago

Well, the gym costs too much money, and while the yoga and pilates and busting my butt on the treadmill seemed to help a bit, I never did lose more than about 5 pounds, so I got frustrated after about 4 months and gave up for a long time. I bought a Wii Fit last week on the first day they were available in the US, and have been doing at least half an hour- 45 minutes every day of yoga and strength exercises, as well as balance and the aerobics. I have lost a couple of pounds, but we’ll see if that’s real in a few weeks, I guess. I do love the Wii Fit, though! Who knew working out could be fun?!
