It's that time again!



This week I:
Struggled a bit with my depressionstuffs. It's mostly the season but a bit stress.
Got into a crafting groove! Doing a lot of crocheting lately.
Kept trying out for jobs!

How was your week?

Hope the stress and depression pass quickly and that you feel better soon. Also hope you get some good luck on the job front speedily too.

What are you crocheting? I'm on a mammoth 'finish all the things' groove at the minute - this week I managed to finish a crocheted headband and make a second and my first ever star out of the leftover and I also found another outstanding child's jumper and have made good progress on that - front and back are now both complete with one sleeve part done.

I've worked a lot of hours this week, finished actually reading "Dear Fatty" Dawn French's autobiography and listening to another audiobook but am falling behind on my Nano project. Had the afternoon off work today, so took myself off to see the new Thor film at the movies.

Busy weekend ahead as I have family coming for dinner on Sunday and so need to get through all the tidying and prep on Saturday - there goes just about any chance of catching up on the writing, I fear. What I really want is just to curl up and sleep for a few days though... no chance of that it seems.

Oh wow, go you on the crochet projects! <3

I made an extension piece to an existing storage case I crocheted earlier so it now holds all my stuff and I can keep it in one spot. I'm working on a pair of mitts for a friend. I finished a shirt. I have about 7 other projects planned too and have some sewing I need to do!

Yay for reading and NaNo! I readjusted my goals about NaNo this year, I just plan to write every day and don't plan to sweat the 50k goal.

Good luck and I hope you get some rest!

I like that video you linked :) I've been watching a lot of tearjerker videos lately. I don't know why I do it to myself!

We just got back from my son's karate ceremony for the kids graduating up to the next color belt. He got his second belt-a white and yellow one. We got to see him do some of his moves and we got to watch what the older kids and adults have learned, too. It was neat.

Uh, there was a bomb threat at my son's school on Wednesday. Apparently there was a message written on one of the upstairs bathrooms. Elementary school. Everyone was evacuated to the middle school and the school was searched, but nothing was found. The buses left an hour late, and nobody called the parents until the buses were already half an hour late. Then an automated message went out. We haven't heard anything since. I'm a little disgruntled with the way the whole thing was handled. We got more information than this when his school bus was very lightly rear ended last year.

I went on a second interview with the Big Four. I accepted a job (not with the Big Four)! My husband went to Seattle on a business trip and left me at home with the kitties.

Well last week there was... lots of stressful stuff that overwhelmed me and I was in a funk because of it. But it mostly got better. Well the issues are still there but a few of them have been put off a bit, so that's good.

Yesterday I slept so late in the afternoon (after being up all night with the baby, but she is mercifully sleeping very well tonight!) that I'm staying up tonight to clean my kitchen. It's. A. DISASTER. I'm embarrassed to even say how bad it is... but it's getting better. I've learned over the years that dishes and I just don't get along, LoL.

Well on the bright side, the weather has been GORGEOUS lately, and I'm so glad the summer heat is finally gone for the year.
