I should have mine out in the mail by Thursday or Friday, depending on how they dry.

I should have mine out in the mail between Thursday and Saturday!

I keep getting different ideas, got a lot of sketches and my supplies, but hard to decide which one to go with.  I will decide by Wednesday at the latest and start on the actual art work. 

My swap partner and I are going to do a little less than the 5 points due to stress we're both experiencing in our own lives.  I hope this isn't an issue, since it is both of us agreeing to it. 

I've got patterns cut out and getting ready to work on some shirts!

I have decided what I am doing, and hope that it comes out okay, because I haven't made something like this before. 

Haven't gotten much done, but everything is planned out and I know exactly what I going to do with everything.  It has been really hard trying to get out of this depressed mood due to the death of my cat and a bunch of other things.  Don't you hate it when you feel so down but you want to craft so badly but the mood just doesn't come?  Yeah, it is frustrating.  I guess I just needed some down time, but it is time to get back on my crafting horse.    I plan to get a lot done this week, and finish next week hopefully.  I won't send any later than the 11th, but I hope to send a bit earlier than that if things go well.

Wondering what to put my art on.  I saw some neat oval-shaped canvas at Michael's yesterday, a little costly for my taste.  I wonder if they have any of those 40% off coupons online?  I need to check that out.  I am going to the thrift store tomorrow to find an interesting frame to do a smaller piece of art, so we will see. 

Going to start crafting this week.  Just haven't been in the mood with so many things going on (and tons more to worry about.)     But, I am starting to feel better.  I will probably get a couple large/mediums done this week for sure.

I've got a few ideas rolling around and plan to find what base I want to work with this week. 

I haven't had time to start yet, my cat Bella passed away on Thursday so I had to deal with that.  Not in the mood to craft yet.  We might actually be adopting a cat tomorrow, I saw her on Friday in PetSmart, and she has been passed around from foster homes and shops for nearly six months.  Who knows how long she will survive before they have to place her in a shelter that puts animals to sleep.  I wasn't able to save my cat's life, but maybe I can save this cat.  I wasn't planning on getting a cat so soon, and I wasn't even thinking about getting an adult cat, but I can't stop thinking about that poor kitty that keeps getting passed up.

 I am thankful the sign-ups ended early so at least I have been thinking about what to make.  Oh, I have plenty planned.  I'll try to gather my materials this week and start crafting within a week.
