Last week I “focused” mostly on drawing and creating patterns, so that was fun and something different. It seems like I need to change up on what I am working on or else I get bored and just don’t want to work on things. I have definitely hit a wall with my sewing lately. I went through with getting projects done that I had volunteered to do, and haven’t done much in the sewing room beyond those things. I have to get some Christmas projects done, so….need to get on that!
My accomplishments this week
Focus Photo –
Yep, no photo this week…
Sewing –
- I sewed a tunic out of sweater knit.
- I also made a red leather hip bag.
- That was all I got finished last week, so I’m hoping to get some clothes made for the girl. She’s been asking!
House cleaning –
- I put together a list of things I need to get done around the house and to the house, so at least I set up appointments for duct cleaning, window cleaning and gutter cleaning. We’ll see if the gutters get done…they might be frozen.
Time with family –
We definitely see the kids starting to get more independent. Both spent a bit of time with their friends this past weekend. I am starting to see how our time with our little family is starting to have a sunset. It makes me a bit sad, though, I am happy as they come into themselves as their own person. They have a good group of friends, so I have no worries about that aspect.
Health, exercising, making healthy meals –
- No exercise, but some heavy cleaning. 🙂
- Meals for this week:
- Monday: sausage and black bean enchilada casserole thing. I only have corn tortillas, so I am going to stack it all up in my cast iron skillet and bake it like that.
- Tuesday: Chicken fried rice and yum yum sauce
- Wednesday: Brocollini and sausage pasta
- Thursday: Bourbon chicken, rice and corn
- Friday: Kids were gone at sleepovers, so mom and dad went out to dinner!
- Saturday:
- Sunday:
