New Start

Hello Everyone, Long time no write/read. But here I am and I'm back with a new kick. I'm motivated, I'm driven, I'm full of new ideas, willing to pursuit them, create new things and share them joyfully with you all.

And here's the lovely picture I took last week. It was taken on the last day of May Bumps in Cambridge, which are basically the rowing races held annually on the River Cam. And I absolutely adore this event and watch it every year. And I put this photo here to show you, that at the moment I'm as strong and motivated as those girls on the picture. :)

So from now on, I'll try to be more active: writing, creating, posting and sharing.

Which might be slightly problematic as I have not enough time to do it all, having a full time job, which takes up most of my time. Maybe I should limit my sleep? Or start crocheting while cycling to/from work? Or completely stop cooking/eating? That would save up some of my precious time; however, all these ideas are plain stupid. I don't function without enough hours of sleep. I admire my work-home cycling route so much I wouldn't be able to give it up (also wouldn't really be able to crochet while cycling). And I love having my food breaks. Still.. If you have any super-ideas regarding saving time, please share them with me! Would love to hear from you.

Also I thought I would update you on my arty-crafty movements. Because even though I wasn't posting anything on my blog, I couldn't just sit still, not doing anything. But I'll do it in parts, one at the time.

So here's the first one.

I finished putting together a big blanket made from square motifs which were made by my Grandma. Who accidentally (not really accidentally) is the reason why I crochet in the first place. That was she, who taught me how to crochet and we still share the passion for the crochet hooks and lovely yarns to these day. So we have agreed ages ago that she would make the motifs and I would stitch them together and make the blanket from them. She's done her part of the project probably a few years ago, whereas I could not find enough time to do my part. Till now. And it's done. And I really like it. So I'll post some pictures when I get home (I'm at work at the moment, with no access to my home laptop) later today.

xoxo :)
