Blogging Binge, Blogging Fast

After that blogging binge that I was challenged to do I fell into a deep, dark blogging fast. I had absolutely nothing to blog about or at least my mind wasn't telling me to blog all about it. But... yesterday that changed. I found something to blog about.
I am so excited about a new adventure that I felt compelled to tell you all about it. The two of you that read this blog that is.
I started my Project Make, fashion design and sewing classes yesterday. It is SO much fun and I am overwhelmed by the talent and creativity that surrounds me. I hope I can soak it all in. Oh, to be a sponge!
We created a skirt in our first challenge and we are going to dye it this week. I will post pictures as soon as it is finished.
Now back to grading papers and dreaming of sewing!

What a Let Down

So that last day of the blogging challenge came and went. In the last day I failed to meet the 29 days I was challenged to.
The truth is I ran out of steam. Last week was particularly trying at work and on Friday night I felt as if I had nothing to give.
Now it is Sunday evening and I am staring another week of work in the face. Since I worked all day on Saturday this weekend has been way too fast.
Sorry if I let you down, but I am sure my post would have just brought you down and that is not my intention!

So on a happy note, I made my first Etsy purchase this weekend. I have been a LOVER of the site for some time, but even in the Internet age I am still weary of buying online. I am so eager for my bracelet to get here. It is unique and beautiful. A big thanks to my fab hubby who helped me to navigate the whole paypal world. You are my favorite!



Hopefully more positive and witty posts to come...
