I have never been the one who likes to drink water. I know it’s good for me, but I still have to figure out more creative ways to drink it. Hot or cold, inside and outside of your body, we all need water.

I have started adding pineapples to my water with something with ginger or cucumbers. I read about adding cilantro as well. I haven’t tried this yet, but I can’t wait to see if it tastes as good as the other two.

I know this may sound a little crazy, but drinking hot water is actually good as well. I can actually sip on it as I read and drink a full cup. Well, if I am not thinking too hard about it.

I will continue to look for better ways to drink more water as well as drink what I need to be a better me. This love and hate for water will NOT stop me from drinking it. I am still looking for better ways to drink more water:

Just one cup at a time…..

Krochet Cafe #5: Three Color Stitch

I am always looking for new crochet stitches. I have asked this question, “A three color crochet stitch,” and I have come across a few that I liked.

Side note: I came across this video. I never heard of this song before, it may not be the full version of this song, but what Ms. Hudson sang beautifully. She has an amazing voice.

Video #1: I didn’t think I was going to have enough yarn to really do this project any good. I can’t go to Micheals and get a few more skeins of yarn in at least five or more colors…

Video #3: I was having a hard time following this one. I am sure I could have done it, but I was a little too impatient to follow along. I am thinking I am not going to find a new stitch, but I am not the one to give up either…

Video #4: I was going to go with a stitch I have done before, but this video stopped that idea. I am happy I found this new stitch. I know I don’t have enough yarn to make a big blanket, but hopefully something nice. I was thinking about “a lovey crochet blanket,” which is only 18” x 18” . Only time will tell if I have enough yarn.

I kind of messed up on the light purple. There was a time when I would have taken the whole thing out, but I am done with redoing my projects. I don’t think anyone else will notice…..

Back to Naruto…

I have seen Naruto at least three times and I am once again watching it from the beginning. There was a time, when I was bored I would just watch one of my favorite Naruto movies, and call it a day. I can always watch this anime and never get bored with it.

ABOUT OVERVIEW T

Naruto is a manga series created by Masashi

Kishimoto that was serialized in Weekly Shonen

Jump. Met with immediate popularity following

its initial publication in 1999, the series went

on to receive an anime adaptation that

commenced broadcasting in 2002.{}

Roku may have countless tv shows, game shows, and movies. I am finding them all a bore at times. Then the shows I would like to watch, you have to pay, and that is a bog No-No.

I just learned a new crochet pattern. (I will be talking about that real soon) I am keeping my word by writing (typing and posting) something every day. I am not ready to actually get out of bed and turn the lights on……

The best part of rewatching a show you know by heart (or almost by heart) is you can focus on something else and still hear some sound in the background. title Seeing Naruto furiously fight back against the Grass Ninja, Sasuke realizes that he was wrong to …. Sasuke finally catches up to Gaara, Temari and Kankuro.

Still Being Creative….

I once said, “Every stitch counts,” and now I am going to reuse my own words. I enjoy crocheting and reading. I usually have one or both items in my bag. On a short trip, one stitch is better than no stitch at all or reading the start of a good story makes one look forward to fully reading the book.

It took me a moment, but I finally finished that king size blanket. I meant to take a picture, but was so happy I was done. I just wanted to give it to its owner and out of my sight. I do have a picture of it as I worked on it.

I will get back to writing and creating. I was editing my book, because I thought I was ready to set it free. I want a more positive outlook and I am having second thoughts on my book. The real problem is, I have a second book I have been going over and over in my mind, and I just stopped writing altogether.

I will continue to edit my first book, and stay creative. It’s 6am here and it’s time to actually start my day and have a cup of coffee…..

Cutting Words……

I didn’t want to redo my book, because I thought I had done a good job as it was. I knew my story was good, so why should I change it? I had left a publisher to look at it and said these hard words, “I don’t think your story is good, but I will still help you publish it.” Yes, for a healthy payment.

It took me a moment to overcome her words. I had to remember all of the changes I made before allowing her to read it. I listen to:

You need to add more detail.
You need to have more surprises.
You need to build up to the high part.

The list goes on, but today my eyes were open. I NEED to not only edit, but get my story back to where it was supposed to be from the start.

I know it’s going to take a moment, because I took one story and scratched that into three books. Now I decided to combine over 15,000 words into one book of 5,000 words.

Today was the first day of my word cuts. I know this is going to take a good minute to finish, but I am going to do it and do it my way….
