2014 was quite a year. my best girl buddy and I have challenged each other to write out what we accomplished during 2014.  and looking back, there have been some significant changes in our lives. specifically, the way we view ourselves, progress towards being happier and more confident.  there we didn't set a goal to make these changes, we really just saw things that we wanted to do or do differently after meeting other people and then made those changes. I didn't have the opportunity to meet a lot of people or growing up, so seeing how these new people behave and the kind of warm and mushy feelings I got was the primary motivation to making changes.  once I shared that with my buddy, we both decided we need to make a few adjustments.  we decided to work on the things that scared us (actually try things we wanted to do) but didn't have the courage. and have a better grasp on those things called feelings and then expressing them appropriately. funny how this ...

I've been thinking there is a queu list of things I've been wanting to knit and a bin of fiber that I have been wanting to spin.  so since it's the beginning of the year, I thought I might work on something every month and at the end I will have something like 12 sweaters or 12 pairs of socks or 12 somethings. So far, I have finished the Owls sweater I've been wanting to make FOREVER! the sweater laid flat, although it looks like it's going to fall off the bed closeup of the owls, without buttons.  I haven't decided if I want to add them yet.  Especially if I can't wash the buttons.
