Week 15 of YOP 14

It turns out that once I got ahold of the correct people transferring my domain name was not all that difficult. It just took time because they wanted to make sure I really, really wanted to transfer the name.

Knitting Plans/Goals

October goals: I would like to finish my current charity knit and a pair of socks. I believe those are both completely accomplishable in the month. As a bonus it would be nice to complete my current Franny Granny Poncho Sweater but that might be a bit much. I would like to add 2-3 mini-skeins on my Anthology Throw. I began a Stephen West shawl which looks like I could use as a blanket so that will not get finished this month. I would like to maybe get through clues #1 and 2 this month.

Update: I finished the charity knitting project. I finished adding mini skein #16 to the Anthology Throw. Completed one of the socks in the pair and have gotten a good distance on the second in the pair. Frogged the Stephen West project - something else will be cast on to try to forget that debacle.

Sewing Plans/Goals

October goal: My yearly sewing plan had pants on the docket for this month. We shall see if I could sew maybe 2 pairs this month.

Update: Between being ill (again) and the hours it took out of my life to complete the website transfer I have not actually sewn for a week or more.

Embroidery/Cross Stitch Plans/Goals

October goal: work at least 1 hour a week on the project.

Update: I finished a large portion of one of the design features so I am feeling very happy with myself.

Crochet Plans/Goals

October goals: Complete at least half of the Franny Granny Poncho Sweater

Update: Had to order a missing color and reread the pattern quite a few times. Hopefully I am back on track.

Cricut Plans/Goals

October goal: I am coming to the realization that the reason I do not complete many Cricut projects is using the machine and doing the projects is very frustrating and annoying. I spend quite a bit of time, effort and materials and find I receive very little in completed projects for my time. I am hoping to maybe get 3 complete finished projects this month.

Update: I did actually after 3 hours of work get a few projects completed. I also worked on making shirts my daughter needed for an event.

Misc Goals/Plans

I did not make it to the gym at all this week. One of my sweet kiddos gave me the flu. I had conferences with parents all day on Monday. Began to feel slightly ill on Monday night with a tickle in the throat. Went to work on Tuesday and just kept feeling worse and worse. Wrote sub plans and called out sick on Wednesday. Suspected this was not just a cold and saw the dr. Winner Winner, Chicken Dinner I have the Flu. I took the rest of the week off. Hoping my school year will vastly improve soon.
