The photos didn't go down well with Mr C. I think he has also realised that reading my blog is much the same as listening to me talk, and he will do one or the other, but not both.
I'm still not convinced that I am doing it right, and wonder if there should be a theme that runs through each entry. But then again, am I just making more work for myself, and putting off what I should be focussing on.
And maybe there is a theme which does run through each of my posts - procrastination. I must make sure that I don't spend all my day blogging, and avoid what I should be doing. As a child, the only time I would tidy up my bedroom was if I had homework to do. Maybe if I feel obliged to write my blog, and it becomes a chore, I will work on my book instead. Problem solved. With this in mind, I am trying for an early blog, so that at least I don't spend the whole day thinking about it. L tells me that the professionals write them a day ahead, so they always have one to spare. And that is one of many differences between me and the professionals!
Starting to think about Christmas, and have just signed up to do a Christmas Crafternoon (which I think is like a Macmillan coffee morning but with a glue gun and glitter), and so have lost a few hours looking for ideas on Pinterest. I have got plans! Have also started to crochet some Christmas tree bunting, although at the moment they are just little green triangles. I LOVE Christmas, and always start early as a consequence.
I am such an old lady, and take pleasure in making things - sewing, crochet, baking. More time wasting..... Mr C thinks I should set up my own business, but there is no way I could sell the stuff I make. I am a real bodger, and you couldn't expect anyone to pay for the things I make.
A true expert would spot my myriad of mistakes in a flash. In fact, when my big sister took up crochet again, she wondered why her blankets didn't look like mine. I didn't like to tell her that it was because she does it the right way! But I can't unlearn the mistakes I have taught myself, and my muscle memory is too old for new tricks.
Mr C also thinks I should keep it short and sweet, and with this in mind, I am going to stop there. Mainly because I have just heard the music for Popmaster, and you know how important my schedule is to me. That is one thing I cannot put off!
