The Do Something Productive Every Day Project Day Six and Seven:


For this portion of the post, pretend I'm posting this on the 10th, ok?

Today I spent a lot of time sleeping. I didn't sleep well due to thunderstorms. I was up until about 4:00AM, slept until around 5:00AM, and then woke up again some time around 8:00AM. So I spent most of the morning in a sort of "her der" stupor, but after a nice, long nap I felt motivated to do Stuff.

So I did some important, private, internet stuff, and then I worked on the HUGE blanket that's my current project, did the dishes, mopped the counters, brought my clean clothes downstairs, and cleaned up the guest bathroom. I mostly finished the blanket, and was working on putting the finishing touches on it by crocheting a rim around the blanket, but then my Mom suggested we watch the movie Dark Skies, and well... I got a bit sidetracked. :/ [Really interesting movie, by the by.]

Anyway, Today I am doing the border on the blanket, and once I trim the loose ends from it, it will be finished! Then I can stuff it in a very large box and wrap it, so its ready for its trip.

I might do other Productive Stuff today too, so there might be a Day Seven part two post during a more decent hour of the day.

That's all for now!

The "Do Something Productive Every Day Project" Catchup!


Will I ever do a thing-a-day project and actually remember to update something about it every day? It remains to be seen! These past days are not that day, unfortunatly.

Fortunately though, I have been doing the Project!

So the project started on June the 5th, and you can read that here. So on June....

6th) Worked on a white hair bow.
7th) Did boring, personal, internet stuff.
8th) Did some packing.
9th) Added an entire ball of yarn to my current, secret project. After I do some more, boring, personal, internet stuff, I'll probably keep on working on this project until bed time.

And now we're caught up! Hopefully I can better keep doing a post for each day from now on. We'll see!!!

The "Do Something Productive Every Day Project" - Day One!


Well today marks the first day of the "Do Something Productive Every Day Project" or the DSPED.

Starting early, early this morning I completed several 4 shell Granny Squares, I made the body for an aqua colored squid, attached the legs and tentacles to the Neapolitan squid, and made a teal colored medium colored bow.

I also did lots of stuff on the internet that will really effect no one but me and how much of a load I've put myself in the position of having to deal with over the years.

I've got a to do list running and am excited for the mental health this project has been bringing me before it was official, and what it will do for me in the future! I hope you all enjoy!
