Creeping along

I bit the bullet this morning and looked at my own blog (instead of everyone else's) and was dismayed, but not surprised, to realize it has been 26 days since I last posted. I was surprised to see that I haven't posted any photos since May 29th. Frankly, at this point I'd be surprised if there's anyone out there to even read this blog entry!

Nevertheless, I'm not ready to throw in the towel just yet.

I'm still knitting, but not making quick progress on anything. The kids and life have been keeping me very busy.

I've been working on self-discipline lately. I have purchased only one ball of yarn since Memorial Day (I'm an unofficial Summer of Stash person) and I feel pretty good about that. I have a lot of yarn already, and it felt good to work on things I already had.

I've also been exercising regularly for the first time in a while. Nothing exotic - I walk about 3 miles most days (no time nor money for gym memberships!) I have lost about 13 lbs in the past six months, and I'm feeling a lot stronger than I did before.

The down side is that exercising seems to use up the little bit of time in the mornings when I used to write blog entries. So, I'm working on slipping it in at other times of day. Taking photographs - I'll work on that next!
