2019 Year in Review

-
Welcome to the end of 2019. It's been a bit of a crazy year, especially near the end.

So here were my goals for 2019.
  1. Reduce the number of kits in my craft closet (of doom) I would like to be able to see part of the floor if possible.
  2. Knit another item.
  3. Finish all the ornament kits I bought in 2018.
  4. Lose 5 pounds.
How did I do?
  1. Hahaha. I think I added to the kits, even with taking some to my parents I still can't see the floor.
  2. Done. Actually knitted 3 things. All afghans.
  3. Don't think I quite got here. I definitely made a dent though.
  4. I actually did this. 10 actually.
Total finished items for 2019:
  • 9 afghans
  • 3 shawls
  • 1 poncho
  • 15 ornaments (2 ribbon balls)
  • 1 amigurumi
So I now present my goals for 2020
  1. Stitch from stash using my dice method of picking projects
  2. Complete a cross stitch that's not an ornament
  3. Get in better shape
  4. Find a job
  5. Edit my 2019 Nano novel and attempt to publish it.

My craft closet difference from 2018 to 2019.

A bit of ADD

I seem to be a bit all over the place this week. Let me walk you through it. Sunday, I have declared this day to be for 'insanity'. I shall try and keep this up. So Monday, I picked up a new cross-stitch, Mystical Wizard. More on that later but here are the colors. Wednesday, I decided to work on one of my sewing projects. A 17.5" stuffed Christmas tree. I was going to make the 12" one but I had enough fabric if I ignored the included cutting diagram and got away with 1/8" less. But come Thursday, I was tired of my cross stitch. There's only so much I could take of stitching blue on blue, and mainly two colors of blue. Of course the upper left is the least interesting part color-wise of this piece. So I switched to The Accolade. I'll include the last photo I took of it (with my old phone) because I didn't get that many rows finished. But not bad for only two days.   And as today is Sunday, I worked on Insanity again. And...

DWTS season 19: week 7

Tommy. It was muddy and he seemed to forget some of it. As usual. I notice they didn't mention the break in hold during the dance. Too high. Lea. It felt careful. It could've used more power, controlled power. It felt like she was walking through it. Not worth 9s. Bethany. I liked it and her dress. I think she missed a step during a side by side but got caught up. There were moments she could've filled instead of just pausing. I don't know if it was 10s definitely 9s. Antonio. Not a lot of actual Viennese Waltz. He didn't do much. I agree with the scores. Michael. Just, no. 5s are generous. Janel. A tad slow for a Viennese Waltz. But it was interesting. A little low. Alfonso. She danced around him a lot. I didn't see too much hip action. Technique needs work. I'll give him the scores based on performance. Sadie. The character didn't work with the dance. She was too loose. I'll give them the scores. Team dances Its...
