Not Forgotten

Clearly, I will be a sporadic poster. I've decided that since I blog, primarily, for myself, that I'm okay with the situation. I've followed far too many blogs and seen the inevitable, "I need to step away from blogging" post enough times to know that if I do this for anyone other than myself that the pressure to post will outweigh the enthusiasm of sharing...when I have something to share.

I've also decided that there is no need to box myself into any particular types of posts. If you're reading, great! I trust that you've found something of value (or mockery) to make return visits worthwhile. If not, I'm none the wiser. Ha! If you feel like sharing a comment or two, I'm always interested in hearing your thoughts. If I wasn't, this would not be visible to the public, duh! Of course, I understand private stalking, too. Either because I'm unsure of how my two cents will be received and/or because I don't make the time to visit an actual blog, preferring, instead, to read through Google Reader, I never comment as often as good etiquette demands. And, if you're like me, that's okay, too.

Still, I will write as though there is a rapt audience because it's an easier way for me to journal. I am the girl with many well-intended journals that never got much past, "Dear Diary" because I couldn't reconcile who my audience was and what they might want to know. Out on the world wide web, I have such a diverse audience that I couldn't possibly begin to try and pigeonhole them. Better yet, I am almost guaranteed the success of at least a few kindred spirits.

Anyhow, life has been a tad more hectic than usual, but I've still managed to get myself into a slew of projects. I've just not completed much. So, no pictures...yet! On my to-do list are:
1. Complete this month's Friendship Triangles - finished last month
2. Complete a Batik Strip Quilt - pieces were previously cut, I've started piecing strips and am almost half way done with the top
3. Make two Wonder Wallets - purchased fabric
4. Make a Tag-a-Long Tote - purchased fabric
5. Complete a Tool Caddy - pieces have been cut since retreat...in March
6. Quilt my Sudoku Block Interlock - assembled batting/backing, pinned for quilting and decided on a quilt design
7. Finish June Friendship Swap Block - awaiting a pattern

With a list like that, pictures are sure to come before too long! Of course, my kids are done with school next week and who knows what summer break has in store for us. Whatever it is, I can't wait! For better or worse, I'm determined to make this summer with them memorable. I'm definitely to the point where I feel like our time is limited and I want to enjoy every moment...even those crappy, crabby ones. Hey, they build character, all around, and make the rest all the sweeter!
