Drowning

I feel as though I am drowning in debt; fear; loneliness, weight; misunderstanding. I am overwhelmed and burned out. I need an out. I need a solution.

This weekend has solidified a few things for me. I am so muddled up that I cannot concentrate on one single thing. I need my mommy. Unfortunately she needs me more. I need a hug too. No, I need a cuddle.

First Instinct

I must really remember to pay attention to my first instinct. It's there for a reason. I usually listen to First Instinct but sometimes I get roped in by aggressive advertising. Recently I gave in to something that I have for years did not want. However, I kept running into it. So then I think to myself that I should maybe give it a go. Then BAM! HOLY COW! BATMAN! it just doesn't work out. I hate getting roped in by faulty advertising by something I did not want in the first place to have it go wrong. And it always goes wrong.

Wrapped-Up!

Here are images of 2 skirts I made this month. Foundation pieced.

The fabrics are the same in both skirts.

I do not post here often as there is not much going on here but, when there is I will post .

It's My Birthday.......

Well, Not Today......But Soon

Last year was a rough year. This time last year I was told to find another place to live and spent the next 3 months looking for a new residence. I now have a really cool apartment with a balcony. Money is tight though. I don't expect 2011 to be any easier. In fact it will be harder. However, I have decided to buy myself gifts for my Birthday. What am I getting?
1. All Star Marimekko Converse
2. A pair of Tie Dyed Tights from Sock Dreams
3. The Faerie's Guide to Green Magick from the Garden book


Why these things? Because I don't need them. Just knowing that I will have presents makes me happy.

Oh! Wow!.....A Small Up-Date

It has been a long time since I last published anything here in my little piece of the web. I have been going through some changes that were forced upon me and to which I needed to respond to. If this were a Shakespearean play I would say I am at the climax.

Down the Rabbit Hole>>>>Depressing: Read at your own risk

So, I have to move again. I have to go through my things to edit(throw away) about 30% of my belongings. I have to decide what is worth keeping. This means that a certain percentage of the things I've acquired over the past 4 years were a waste of money.

Sittin' Up In My Room

"Sittin' Up In My Room" aside from being one of pop singer Brandy's last hits is exactly what your "home girl" did today. I am also in for the night. I am also hungry, that's beside the point though.

See this little beauty below. I made it today. I only need to stitch the edges and decide if it will be a pillow case or part of a quilt. I don't know.I like to make "cloth" to borrow from Jude but I do not feel the need to actually make something with it after I'm done.
