It's been a while since I've posted a journal entry, hasn't it? About time I wrote a new one. I took a break from kanzashi over the holidays, (sort of non-optional, there was just too much going on!) and am just now getting back to my book project and normal life. One of my goals for this year is to finish that book, although there is a lot going on, (I'm getting married, moving to a different state, and really really need to find another job, my Etsy store just isn't bringing in what I need right now.) so that may be wishful thinking. Another goal is to be a little more varied in my crafting, and possibly get some actual drawing practice in, I really need it!

I've gotten off to a decent start I think, I've had the time for a ton of polymer clay stuff, a scarf I'm about 1/3 of the way through at the moment, and a rather ambitious outdoor project that I haven't worked on too much due to short, cold days, and a lot of rain. (I'll give you a hint:  it's box-like in shape, large, blue, accompanies the scarf I'm knitting, _{and also might have something to do with travel through time and spa... wait, that's too much of a hint, isn't it?} )

I've also got a bunch of long-promised tutorials and severely late group features to get together, (sorry guys!) I keep meaning to do it, but it takes so much longer than I think it will, and there's always more pressing work that must be done first. I'll get there eventually, promise, so keep an eye out for those!
