Our garden plot! We dug the whole thing by hand with shovels, rakes and a hoe. Now we will both have blisters on our hands for a few days. But hopefully we'll get some good vegetables out of it.

Pictures (at last)
My bunny! I made the whole thing, including the dress. Check out the puffy sleeves, because they were by far the hardest part.

A Hobby Spree
For the last couple of months I have been working on a sewing project that is almost done. Honestly, I could have finished the whole thing in a week, but I have to take lots of time to agonize over my lack of skill and the difficulty of the project. Once I get done agonizing, the projects usually go pretty fast. With any luck, I will finish this tomorrow and get pictures up here. It has been very fun to do. I don't, as a general rule, consider myself a crafty person. I'm better with words and food then sewing and color-coordination and stuff. But my mother is beginning to rub off on me, I guess, because I found myself spending too much time deciding between colors of fabric. And I liked it!
So how many hobbies does this make for me? Let's see . . . writing, reading, computer games, cooking, yard work, games, movies, organizing, traveling . . .
Well, huh. I just don't have time for a job! Any great suggestions on how to quit my job but still bring in just as much (or more) income? Oh, right, get my book sold. Working on it . . . Sometimes . . .
Enough rambling. Time to go start planning my garden.
