Craft Update

I recently began a new cross-stitch project. Whenever I'm taking classes, I feel guilty if I spend my free time doing something other than studying, but I like having something to do while watching TV, so I gave up my rule on "no extra stuff." It's been months since I've read a book that I didn't buy at the school bookstore, so I'm really looking forward to this Summer. I decided to take the Summer quarter off from school and I'm going to try to read a book a week for the whole quarter. The last Harry Potter comes out in July and I'm ready! Actually, I'm read for just about anything that doesn't involve the human anatomy.

I've also been working a lot on the London scrapbook. Next month will be two years since we took that trip and I still don't have the book completed! At first I had good reasons for not tackling it (moving out, moving in, starting jobs, etc.), but the last year I've just been lazy. I'm determined to get that done in the next month or two, though, because I really want to start work on the regular day-to-day scrapbook. If I didn't have to work, I could get a lot more done around the house and I'd be further along in school. Vic just isn't sympathetic to my plight, however.

Where on your body do you have a scar, and what caused it?
On the underside of my chin. I split my chin open when I was about 5 ~ I can still feel the doctor pulling the thread thru my chin. Ewwww.

What is something that has happened to you that you would consider a miracle?
Finding Shannon. I know that if Vic & I hadn't found her on Valentine's Day '01 she wouldn't be around today. She was very sick and her person didn't take care of her. She's a wonderful dog, with a huge heart and two lucky moms.

Rosie O'Donnell ~ fingernails on a blackboard.

Main Course
