April Round Up - May Goals

Well, I really lost my way in April - but I enjoyed the stitching I did do!

April Goals:

1. Finish DT - Love and Wisdom - yes!
2. NZ Ornament SAL - Yes!
3. 1 More Ornament - no - started one, but didn't get far.
4. Mirabilia RR and send off - no - there was some muck ups in mailing, and it didn't arrive until last week - this mail out has been put back for two weeks.
5. Finish Celtic Summer - oh, so, so close ... about half the beads to go.
6. Restart Faery Tales - no - but started an experimental QS instead, and made decision to start it on 28ct.
7. 1 other ebay Piece - no - and no excuses for that one!

Funny enough, I'm not sure what I want to finish or stitch this month ... so it might be a wishy washy one. I need to get stuck into doing some ebay pieces, Rhiannon has a possible gym competition in Hamilton in July, and I've decided we will go IF we have the spare money ... so ebay, here I come! I still need to sell Love and Wisdom, I find it hard to find time to actually do the mucking around to get them onto ebay - it shouldn't be that hard, but it's one of those "little" jobs I have trouble finding time to do - partly because I like them to finish during the pm in US time ... so it cuts down the time of day I have to do it.

Here goes ... some wishy washy May goals -

1. Finish tea-cup RR - send off.
2. Finish Mirabilia RR - send off.
3. Two ebay pieces.
4. Finish Celtic Summer (I think this is the 3rd month I have this as a goal!)
5. Stitch on HAED QS Summer Fairy
6. NZ Ornament SAL
7. 1 other ornament

... and just because we all like pictures on blogs - here are my two monkeys -

Sometimes we meet our monthly goals, sometimes we don't because something else grabbed our attention. It's all good, don't you think?!

I just set goals for fun, Lisa. Sometimes I get them accomplished, sometimes I don't. Of course, I do have major ones sometimes but by writing it down, I work to get it accomplished.

Your girls are just gorgeous and getting so big. :)

Such strong little monkeys they are, too! Don't worry about the monthly goals. As others have said, it's not a big deal. No one's holding a gun to your head. :) As long as you enjoy the stitching time you have, that's what is important. It's about carving a little bit of time out for ourselves in this crazy world!

Hi from another Lisa. Just found your blog and love it. Love your pieces and was wondering what your ebay seller id is so I can look out for your stuff
