Wordless Wednesday

I am trying to come up with a new picture of myself because I don’t like the other ones anymore. This morning I decided to try with my braid out look and see if I liked it any better. What do you think?

Well, my camera hates me a lot…so I can’t do Wordless Wednesday pictures and things like that unless I want to use the video/digital camera. I hate using it for pictures because what you see is what you get. Use the flash, you end up with a white picture and nothing distinguishable at all in it. Don’t use the flash, you might have a picture so dark you wish you just gave up on it. *sigh* I am thinking I might just get a digital frame to display the pictures I do have so I won’t be so depressed about not really being able to take any more nice pictures till we get a new camera. Anyone got one they would like to donate? I need something more than 3.2 megapixels that takes xD memory cards.

My picture was selected to go into a Schmap for Houston, Texas. I didn’t even know it existed. I just approved the photo to be used:

Pretty nifty Take a look thorugh the tour of Houston they are putting together. I think it’s pretty awesome. My picture should be under Top Attractions soon.

Hey I thought that since I have been doing more and more crafts, I should give them a place among the blogs. And so, http://www.stitchwhimsy.com has been born. Please take a look at it and tell me what you think!

Oh yes! I have been busy busy busy this week. True, the online craft club has helped to spur me onward. Within 3 days I made a hat, a purse, and a cell phone case. I am now working on a scarf in a different color than the hat I just made.

Purse
Cell case
backward question hat

I also went and purchased 5 new skeins of yarn yesterday. All those, plus the ones my mother was so generous as to share with me, are here:

TEEHEE!!! If anyone has any good groups or tutorials for learning to crochet more complex patterns and such, please do share. I have the basics down, but now I want to tackle something more challenging.

So glad I have books to keep me company. I have just added a few to my reading list. I can’t wait to get them in-hand so I can begin the journey through the pages. I have decided against reading any more of “Buttercup’s Baby” (sequel to The Princess Bride). I read a few pages in and it totally didn’t grab me. So that one is out. I am going to try and read these:

• Girl, Interrupted by Susanna Kaysen
• Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West by Gregory Maguire
• Lost in the Mirror by Richard A. Moskovitz
• I Hate You, Don’t Leave Me by Jerold J. Kreisman
• Pope Joan by Donna Woolfolk Cross
• Gone With the Wind by Margaret Mitchell
• Crispin by Avi

Avi is a childhood favorite author of mine. Wicked comes highly recommended from a friend. The I Hate You book is the predecessor to Sometimes I act Crazy, which I own and have already read. The others are just books I have an interest in reading for myself. I will probably end up reviewing the I Hate You and Lost in the Mirror books on my mental health blog. The others will more likely go here or my vox blog.
