So WordPress tells me that I signed up 2 years ago last month! I hadn’t realised that it has been that long. Also there haven’t been many posts in that time either. Something that I would like to change.
I announced a little while ago that I opened an Etsy store, I haven’t seen much action from it so far. Most of my orders have actually come from the facebook page or friends. I have also created a website, if you’d like to check it out you can click here.
It’s been really fun to try out new patterns and yarns without adding clutter to my home.
One thing I absolutely need to do from now on though is pick up the pace on the study front! I’ve used up 2/3 years and completed 8/18 subjects. Not great odds. Last year was a tough one to get study done in, it was discovered that I have kidney issues now last year in January 2014. I have whats called FSGS or Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis. Which is essentially scarring on parts of the kidneys allowing proteins and other things meant to be circulated back into the blood to be lost through the urine. So many medication changes and 11 months of steroids among other things. I will do a more in depth post on all that in a future post.
I’ve been working on thisĀ blanket for Miss 5 who chose the colours. All was going along fine until I started to run out of the yarn. I figured, it’s ok, I’ll just go back to the yarn store and buy some more. Well that worked well with the pink and white, but none of the purple. The owner says that he’ll order it in, all good right? NO! The purple is a discontinued colour and has been since 2012!! Disaster! However just because I’m so special (hehe) he rang around for me and found the 2 balls I needed from a different store!! How good is that? Awesomely good, that’s how good. So now I can go ahead an finish it for her. Well once I’ve finished the current customer order anyway.
Until next time, happy crafting and hug a loved one.
