Not Again

Not ready to put away my granny square blanket. I have a color pattern already in my head and a smile thinking about how it’s going to look.

I got up to get a cup of tea. I just laid my project down and now my needle is gone.

I will stay calm. I will enjoy my green tea as I listen to the rain, and then I will start crocheting once again.

A Lazy Day Crocheting …

A lazy day crocheting. I thought I was going to get some new color yarn, but Walmart  was a let down. I am not going to give up on finding more yarn at another store or even online.

I found this red heart yarn. I was just looking at the colors. It wasn’t until I got home that I noticed it was, “The granny all in one square.” It is a good thing I wasn’t planning on doing granny squares, because it wasn’t going to work anway.

I didn’t know how I was going to reuse the dark grey yarn after taking it from a different project. The grey was too dark, with the light pink, but I believe these new colors will blind together much better. The sun is still out and I am still enjoying my day off. Time to get back to my new grey project. I am still thinking about adding a little more black in it, so it won’t be so light. Only time will tell about that add on.

By My Faith Alone…

I keep wondering how many times I have to get up and start again? I seem to be falling more than I am standing strong. I am not stressing, because there is a difference between falling and laying down.

Proverbs 24:16 NIV  [16] for though the righteous fall seven times, they rise again, but the wicked stumble when calamity strikes.    https://bible.com/bible/111/pro.24.16.NIV

Is it strength or just being stubborn? Is it worth trying? It’s new, why not go to school, and do this? Didn’t you try something last month? How many books did you sell? Are you sure you want to _

James 1:6 NIV [6] But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. https://bible.com/bible/111/jas.1.6.NIV

Matthew 14:31 NIV [31] Immediately Jesus reached out his hand and caught him. “You of little faith,” he said, “why did you doubt?”  https://bible.com/bible/111/mat.14.31.NIV

I am beyond tired of listening to people’s doubts and trying to make them understand I am more than what they see. I don’t have to answer them or anyone. I know who I am and who is really on my side.

There are times when I want to talk to someone, willing someone to believe in me, but I realize not everyone can or will be there for you. It may look like I am standing alone, but I know who is really on my side.

My Composition Book

My first thought was to start writing about my dream house. I have been thinking a lot about having a house, a cat, and a backyard where family and friends can gather for a cup of coffee or tea.

I enjoy watching shows about tiny houses and I know I can not live in a tiny house, but I have gotten a lot of good ideas on how I would like my first house to look like. 

My first thought was to write them down, because just thinking about it isn’t good enough. I even bought a special book. I got this book on Amazon. 

I couldn’t finish writing down my dream house. There were a lot of ideas, the more I thought about it, the more I actually wanted to see them, and not just in words.

I thought there should be a free app where I can actually see my dream house online. I researched a few sites and was about to download one, but I thought it would be best to read more about it before I download it onto my computer.

The app that I chose took too much information and I decided it wasn’t a good idea. I will go back to my original plan and start writing it down. Sometimes it’s good to stick with your first plan.

Once I have all of my ideas on paper, maybe one day I can get them to the right people, and they can help me set this dream free. Having a dream is wonderful and working on setting it free is great motivation to not give up.
