I made some t-shirt designs tonight based on my “Eat Shit” cross stitch pattern. I plan on doing different colors soon. Check it out:

I’ve had a mental to-do list for months and I am finally able to check things off.  First, our taxes are done!  Some of our return will go to fix the TV which has been cracked ever since the disastrous Wii bowling incident of ‘07.  (Wrist straps, wrist straps, wrist straps!)  We’re also going to pay off some stuff and the rest goes into savings.  Hooray!  We’ll finally have a damn savings account!!!  Taxes, check!

I gave up on waiting for a photographer friend to sell me his old camera.  Instead I’ve ordered a nice Nikon D40 which operates as a point-and-shoot and an SLR.  It’s supposed to be a good way to learn how to use an SLR, like training wheels for the camera.  I may never get to the point where I am using F Stops and Iso’s and 4 different lenses so this camera will be a great step up from my little point-and-shoot.   Camera upgrade, check!

My website is up and has links for the cross stitch, photography and book projects.  I don’t have the e-commerce portion up.  It took me four hours yesterday to get the site up, develop the logo (thanks in huge part to Ron,) and find an image that I took of the badlands to work in the web site template.  I’m not happy with how the photos of the designs look but fuck it.  It’s up and running.  Web site, check!

The book is coming along slowly but surely too.  I’ve started the fourth page!  Not much, I know but progress is progress.  I like Albedo’s reasoning in his comment from a previous blog.  Just keep writing and you at least have something to work with.  Book started, check!

Tomorrow I have my diagnostic test to check my girly tubes.  Hopefully they are open and working!  I’ll come home, load up on drugs and wait out the cramps from that.  Maybe I’ll get some stitching done or some house cleaning started.   Charlie is probably leaving tomorrow with Ma Burley.  I’ll miss them  both and hopefully they will live up here permanently soon.  I’ll keep praying for that.  It’s been so nice to have the company and support.

Today we have errands to run and relaxing to do.  Have a great Sunday!
