Maybe a new puppet? A gourd doll? Something with a  dachsund theme? I haven't decided. I just got three boxes out of storage. One labeled crafts, one labeled costumes and one labeled yarn. They are covered in dust and cobwebs. So it will be like a treasure hunt. Some of my braided ribbon fell out as we were shifting them. I think it will be fine with a dusting and/or a washing. I also found a crewel embroidery project that's about 3/4 finished that I started when my kids were little. Now they are married, so that's how long that's been in storage or moved from house to house.

I don't want to make anything stressful...just something quick and easy and fun.

I've been busy making things for my Pigglewiggins shop lately. I have a whole bunch of stuff that is almost done that I want to add to my online store. Some of them are puppets, some are watercolor paintings. And I have a slew of gourds that need to be finished and put up for sale. I've been a slacker.

I'm always trying to improve my drawing skills. They get rusty so fast. It's so tempting to just stick to knitting or crochet, and leave the harder stuff for others, but I guess I'm just a glutton for punishment.

I also need to start going through all my journals and see if I can find the Pigglewiggins book I was writing. I remember it was a female character. That's about it.

I run into people that say they have 1000's of people subscribed to their blog. How do they do it? I'm lucky if I can get 2 people to favorite me. Much less subscribe to an RSS feed or something. Usually someone only reads my blogs if I meet them in a chatroom and say 'here's my blog'. Even then they usually just bookmark it till later, which means they probably never go back and read it. I mean, who has time really. Most of the people I know barely have time to remember to eat between work, school and home.
