Done and Done and Gone

I finished up the slow-stitched beach bag, which turned out neat, I think.

More than anything it was a relaxing project, and gave me time to think about lots of stuff.

I also finished this treat bag I made from my bargello experiment and filled it with snacks before mailing it off to my kid so she would get it in time for Halloween.

I'm writing this post on 10/22, but it will publish on the first day of NaNoWriMo. With the puppies, my work schedule and some other things I need to deal with it's probably going to be very tough to swing. I may change my mind, too (again). Anyway, I'll update this post if I decide to participate, but right now it looks like a no for me.

The slow-stitch turned out beautiful! Truly.

I will not be doing NaNo this year. Hubs is getting his knee replaced January 3rd, I have three birthdays, Thanksgiving, Christmas and a dozen doctor appointments between now and then not to mention a few more tests for him so while I could probably find the time if I pushed it, my concentration wouldn't be there. Better I write when I can focus than try to push myself right now.

Thanks, I'm pretty happy with it.

I decided not to do NaNo this year, either. I'm feeling a bit jaded about the way it's being commercialized, and I'd rather not be distracted from work writing. I'd like to finish one more novel before the end of the year. Also, with the short story project I feel like I already have plenty to write just for fun.
