WEEK 1 OF YOP 15

 

Welcome to my 15th year of being active in the Ravelry group, 'Year of Projects".  I choose the July 1 - June 30 year.  This being the first week, I am posting my 'wish list' below showing the categories I will be filling in over the next 51 weeks. 

My 'wish list' has been set up a bit different this year.  First, there are more categories than in the past because my interests have expanded.  Secondly, each category will contain everything pertaining to that specific craft in it from beginning to end.  Third, each item in the category will be one of three colors and the legend for the meaning of the colors is at the top of the page.  Why did I change?  Boredom LOL.  I felt like I was getting into a rut and needed to spice things up a bit.  That being said, here is a look at my wish list for this year.

Through a Glass, Deadly 6/22/25 - 

There are not any 'planned' projects as of yet.  We all know I will continue to make shawls for our cancer ministry at church as well as newborn hats for the hospitals.  But, right now, I have plenty of things on the go that need to be completed.

I did complete 2 more dishcloths this past week.

I also completed a Diamond Art I had received for my birthday.

The dishcloths and Diamond Art were great take along projects for this past week as I was helping out with my son, Josh. 

This past week Hubby and I went to a Diamondback Baseball game with our youngest son and his wife.  We lost the game but had a great time with the 'kids'.  Last night we had a little pizza party with Josh and his family.  Our daughter was there as well so we have managed to see all our local kids this past week.  Always a joy for me.  

Today I plan on taking my kitchen apart and cleaning it.  I had a sewer roach show up late last night and had to use the bug spray on it to kill the nasty thing.  So, sanitizing the counter tops is top priority for me today.  We normally get several of these critters each year.  Usually they come up in the bathrooms from the drains.  Luckily, this is the first one we have had in well over a year.  May it be our last one too.  They give me the creeps!

This coming week I am busy again with caring for members of the family.  I have 2 days scheduled with Josh, one day with our daughter in law, Tiffany and possibly one day with our daughter, Jenn.  I knew I should have gone to nursing school! LOL  Luckily, I have plenty of projects I can take with me as I go from home to home.

Let me leave you with a little chuckle.  I think we all can relate to this:

Until Next Time............................Happy Crafting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
