Brave...Im getting brave
or is it courage?I'm opening an account on Etsy for some crafts that I've been making.I gave like 30 baby hats to my sister for her to sell.She makes basket and wanted some of the hats for the baby ones.So i was thinking that maybe i should put what i make out there too.I'm not looking to make a killing i just want to share what i make instead of it just sitting here....looking at me...LOL
Baby steps ...baby steps...wish me luck

strong hold we allow to ourselves
Why are they so strong? why do we allow them? and how do we get out of them?How do we get rid of something that is so strong but I'm thinking that we give them the power to be big when they are not.If God is with me then who can be against me?We are now in March and the weather is starting to be beautiful and i need to get out more.anyone out there pray for me that i may learn to get rid of these strong hold.That i will with God... defeat the enemy..............Thank you in advance for your prayers

over the weekend we had one neighbors father die and our other neighbor taken to the hospital.you dont want to be nosy but i am concerned, worried about them and what they may need but .... I will put them in Gods hand to give them what they need when they need it.
Our weather has been nice got out yesterday to visit mom for a while then home to this mess of a house with no energy to straighten it up.But i gotta do today since were having company
My bday is coming on thursday and I'm okay with it my dad will be coming this weekend with his wife which he never brings which makes me feel bad for my mom she wont be included in my birthday celebration and i know she feels it too.why could i have pushed hardier for them to stay together?i guess at the time i was in my own world, my own life.
oh and as far as my knitting goes im stuck again remember those fingerless glove and the needles i said i wanted well there not that easy to handle for a beginner so im trying and trying to get them going and too i have to redesign the pattern since im working in the round but im having fun with it.

Snow
So Im sitting here waiting for the snow to pile up..We live in Austin so it has to do alot of snowing in order for that to happen.I told the kids that if it started to snow id wake them up so here i am waiting..
Im trying to create a knit pattern of my own fingerless gloves with a cable going down the middle.Ive seen patterns but this one is easy and i want to try it on my own.Im even thinking of buying me some needle to work in the round but not circular needles.Im really surprised at how much im enjoying Knitting.So what do u do when it gets hot i tend to move on but then i alway crocheted afghans.The knitting projects are small and may not be hot or make your hands sweaty.I do need to make a list of scarfs and hats i want to made and get a head start right instead of waiting till the last minute.I dont know
How do you handle disappointment?I worked long and hard on a cowl for my son and all along i thought he was wearing it ..he'd put it on and out the door he went ..well this week its been cold and Ive been taking him to the bus stop and to my surprise i seen him take it off before he got on the bus...My balloon popped ...Im sad.My other son who is 7 just flat out told me he lost it so hes back to wearing his old scarf
LIFE GOES ON :-)

need more pictures
I'm starting another cowl and i still haven't even posted pictures of the other two.One which was worn today by Gab and is dirty already and neatly displayed (thrown)on the floor.When i made it and showed it to him he said he didn't like it ..its was not soft like Jeremy's but this morning when he walked out the door he says"mom where is that thingie u made me" so i run up stairs risk missing the bus to get the thingie....(with a smile from ear to ear).
So i went to hobby lobby they have the 40% coupon and i bought a skein of I LOVE THIS YARN...color: camo strip ... for a more softer cowl for Gab.well we'll see if he likes it -once it done which i got maybe 10 rows done waiting at the doctor office with my uncle.Why do doctors make u wait so long and then u spend more time with the nurse telling her why you are there then u spend with the doctor and then they charge u an arm and a leg...OMG...but i survived thanks to my yarn. :-)
I've been sitting here playing farmville on face book and looking at other people's blogs...What am i think i should be working on something- being more productive don't u think?

Long weekend
it was a good restful long weekend ...(another one)We did nothing but lay around the house and watch tv and eat which is bad cuz were suppose to be losing weight this year.Doesnt look like its going to happen if i dont start doing it myself hubby is not helping i guess i should say not interested in exercising..which is really sad cuz i rather enjoy exercising i like the energy it give me and the confidence i need knowing i look good and not fat.So i need to get my butt going on my own and do this..now are the times i wish i had my mom around or a friend.My life is so sad and boring..LOL
as far as my hobbies..i knitted 2 cowls this weekend,and I'm liking knitting in the round or is it the bamboo needles that made it feel so smooth it felt like i was slicing into butter every time i took a stitch.You know what i mean?Im thinking on getting me more...thinking...will post pic later of the 2 cowls i finished. That green scarf that taught me to do cables.. i think it turned out great will offer it to my daughter she say ive never made her a scarf.I have made everyone in this family at least one or two.Except for my hubby he got his first one this x mas never thought hed wear it but sure enough he does it might be too that it wears it so he wont hurt my feelings.
monday was to be a good day we went out to eat and then to the movies which turned out to be quite expensive we should have gone out of town instead for the money we spent but lesson learned.But we all had a good time and thats what counts.The movie we watched was The Green hornet...preveiw showed it to be a really good movie but it was ...OK the boys enjoyed Gab said he wanted this movie so we'll see ..think of things he wants he want Lego star wars which comes out in february so i need to get him to start doing some chores around here to earn so money....so think What can a 7 yr old do?
As for as this week i will make the best of it and will enjoy it..Rejoice This is the day the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad it
okay so let me get off of here and go do something productive...Go see my Mom sounds good.

Okay..so today was a so so day...got groceries been trying to do that all week.Worked on the binding on the blue quilt need two more side then that will be done.Haven't worked on the scarf/cowl but its on my list.Ive been praying for cold weather and i think its coming gotta check that out ...cuz i get very lazy about leaving the house when its cold.
We got a kinit for Christmas and today i exercised for about 3-15 minutes session which equals to 45 minutes of exercise....Ya me.
my son gab is now sick i don't know if its a cold or him not being able to get back in the swing of things back to school i mean.He woke up this morning at 4 and started to get ready for school.When i got up with him he told me "i think i will have breakfast this morning at school"i thought it was funny...it one of those u gotta be there...
I was thinking about why i wanted this blog i know nobody is reading it but me but i think its a way for me to be accountable to someone even if there is nobody there.And for me to keep track of my days.So far i have not gone to go see my mom
Dinner: chicken and cheesy bread..yummy
Exercise: 45 min :-)
