Found it!

So.... last night after putting my daughter to bed, I got ready to curl up on the couch to watch The Biggest Loser and work on my forever long never ending sock yarn blanket. Here is a quick shot of it. There are loads of different ways to make the mitered squares that make up this blanket. When I have more time I will go more into detail on how mine is put together.

And all the sudden, I realize, where is my needle bag!? I searched and searched, I was near panic mode, all thru the house. I even ventured to guess that my precious 6 year old had it in her room, NOOOOOOO! And then there it appeared on the couch, tucked under a pillow, you know where it belongs right?

Where is the oddest place you've found what you lost?

Purpose

“The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.”
― Ralph Waldo Emerson

Purpose... What is my purpose, this is a question I've struggled with for my whole life. So far my purpose has been...

make ice cream at Dairy Queen

help the sick as a CNA

help you pay for your food as a cashier for Kroger

get the knots out as a Massage Therapist

do everything as a Mom

Have I found my purpose yet... Not sure. I desire to make a difference, will that be thru knitting and crochet in the big bad fiber world. Who knows. This Thursday and Friday I will leave to go to Nashville with a group from my church. I will be learning about how to decorate for VBS. Will a few yards of paper taped to the wall fulfill a longing for purpose in my life? We will find out. 

Welcome to my blog... 

I promise a few things...

I will talk about knitting and crochet and yarn. 

I will talk about my daughter and how she challenges me everyday.

I will talk about my church and my faith. 

I hope to include lots of pictures and stories that I find interesting and/or important. 

I hope you love it, I hope you share it!
