Start and FINISH a knitting project
My thoughts on this...... 10 months ago

I bought Stitch and Bitch about 6 years ago and was very excited to start knitting. I did the first projec, a very simple but lovely scarf and that’s it! I had envisioned knitting bikinis and little baby booties and selling them on the internet. Such dreams I had, and all I have to show for it is 1 scarf. I would love to knit a sweater for my boyfriend for Christmas with a Toronto Maple Leafs leaf on it, because that would be the coolest thing EVER. But I’ve all but forgotten how to knit. A sweater is a lofty goal, but if I start now with all the projects in my book, then I will be able to handle a sweater by Christmas.



Oil pull every morning
I'm doing this now!! 10 months ago

I think this oil pulling thing sounds really beneficial in a holistic, healing way, and it’s cheap and can’t really do much harm…..so I’m going to try to stick to it and do it consistently for a couple of months to see if I’m feeling better. Some of the advantages I’ve read about that I’m hoping to reap are….. more energy, better dental health, and clearing of the skin. I would gladly swish some oil in my mouth every morning (has to be done on empty stomach) to get that!! I’ve done this before, but then I fall off the wagon and forget to do it, get lazy, run late, etc. but I think the point is and the benefits are only obtained by doing this EVERY day.
