DOING MY THING

Do your thing,
Do it unapologetically.
Don't be discouraged
by criticism. You probably
know what they are going
to say. Pay no mind to
the fear of failure.  It's far
more valuable that success.
Take ownership, take chances,
and have fun. And no matter
what, don't ever stop doing
your thing.

~ Asher Roth

Have you enjoyed your weekend?

Mine has been very quiet. I finally

blocked my blanket and then took

it for a quick photo shoot before

the rain fell again and the mosquito's

carried me away.

I am so pleased with how this project

turned out and now it is stored away

in the cedar chest until it is wrapped

up to be given away at Christmas.

I started my new knit project Follow Me,

but I made a mistake on one stitch when

I added the contrasting cream stripe. I knit

on it for a few hours more before I knew

I needed to start over, it was really driving

me nuts, it's all I could focus on when I 

looked at the shawl,  so I ripped back to

the beginning, and now am much happier,

no mistake. I should have just ripped back

as soon as I saw the error, but sometimes

I must learn the hard way. Sigh.

I've watched old movies, The Quiet Man

and Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, finished one

Audible book, A Man Called Ove [which

I loved] and began another, . I've gotten

my steps in and just enjoyed peace-filled

days.
