New Look

For the blog that is.

Isn't it purty?

Didn't change any of the HTML this time, though I may next time in order to do away with the rounded corners... To be determined.  For now, this be it :)

Too Many Things.

Image
I decided that I should blog today so as not to fall out of habit... but I kinda have nothing to say. That's not really true, I suppose.  The more realistic statement is that I have too many things to say and I'm not sure of how to chose just one, let alone focus on it well enough to be eloquent and/or make sense in general.  This is my brain, welcome. Hmmm... (I'm attempting to chose.  You can't tell, but it's taking a lot of face-scrunching.) Okay, I've got it.  I'm going to talk about my amazement at the friends that God brings into my life. I had the pleasure of spending several hours yesterday with a new, but quickly becoming good, friend.  I went over to hang out on Sunday evening and immediately noticed that her son (who's 3) had a big band-aid on his forehead.  When I asked about it, she explained that while playing hide-and-seek she'd managed to convince him to cover his eyes so that he could not see, then decided that he should...

Dear Love, (A Collection)

Dear Love, It's been a long time since  I wrote to you last .  (I just reread that post... some of it is facepalm worthy...) Turns out it has been a couple months less than a year, but really, what's so special about anniversaries anyway?  Today is the 283rd day-versary, and I think that's as good as any reason to celebrate :) And by "celebrate", I mean sit alone on my bed and begin to write a series of mini-letters to someone I don't yet know of (or at least, not as Love yet). Someday I won't have to write mystery letters to you, I will be able to just talk to you. That will be nice, don't you think? Yours, -Em Dear Love, Have we met?  Did you like like me?  Did I like like you? Oh gosh, you probably witnessed my failure to flirt... that's embarrassing. Do you think about dating me sometimes?  Have I wondered the reverse? This is confusing... and occasionally stress-inducing. Yours, -Em Dear Love, Your absence has been of note late...

Sewing, Days 2-4

Image
I has been a long time since I've had the time to craft!  I worked on my purse a little bit on Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday. (Sorry for the graininess of the pictures!  The only camera I had access to was my phone and the lighting in the room was horrible for pictures!) Day 2: Step 1 -- Clean the craft room That's better :) Step 2 -- Sew the other side of the strap on. I love this picture because it shows how even with hoards of pins at my disposal, I would rather use random clips!  I sooooooo very much detest pins! Step 3 -- Sew the front (I'm pretty pleased with how this turned out! Yay, pockets!) Step 4 -- Basically run out of thread. Day 3: (I didn't take many pictures this day, because they would have made no sense.) Step 1 -- Buy thread! Step 2 -- Sew the bottom and sides together. Step 3 -- Pull one of the seams apart to resew it in a way that doesn't make the strap twist in the middle. Step 4 -- Sew the back toget...
