So for the past week all I've done is sitting on my bum and crocheting granny squares nonstop. As I mentioned before, I find crocheting to be a relaxing way to fill my day, but lately I've been getting a teeny bit bored with it. Now I know what you're thinking. Why don't you take a break? Yeah, well I could do that, but then I would completely drop the project all together. Which, mind you, is not a good idea. I distracted myself from my secret music related embroidery project with crocheting. I don't want to distract myself from this new project that I'm really excited about.
I've started it and now I need to finish it. Here's what I have now twenty five granny squares and I just need about seventy five more to get the size I want.
I must admit that Bryan is pretty jealous of this new afghan I'm making. He actually wants it for himself, but it's for me. I think I would be okay with sharing it with him, though once it's done I don't even know if I'm going to allow it to be used. He has his beautiful blanket that his grandmother crocheted for him that he received last winter. It's my go-to blanket whenever I visit him, but he can have it all himself when I finish mine. Fair enough?
Other than crocheting, I've been thinking about tattoos. Ever since I was middle school age I wanted tattoos. Of course over the years my ideas of what I want have changed, and thank goodness. I sort of had some dumb tattoo ideas. I don't know if I'll ever work up the courage to permanently alter my body, but I have a couple ideas that I think I really should get because they have meaning to me. Here are some photos of tattoos that I adore and inspire me that I would love to share with you.

what are the ideas you have in mind currently for the tattoos?
ReplyDeleteI would love one but have been strongly warned against one by my partner. hehe though my design I like currently is a cresent moon with an acorn in the centre. If I do however sitck with this idea I'm allowed it hehe
I definitely want to get a flock of birds on my back. Nothing big. It's supposed to be like a symbol of my independence when I'm not living with my parental units anymore and as a little ode to one of my favourite bands. I want a tree, as well, on my hip. Either a tree like from the movie My Neighbor Totoro (and maybe have the totoros in it!) or like the tree from The Giving Tree.
ReplyDeleteI can keep going... there are probably about 5 more ideas I want. Haha... oh I would get them all if I weren't so afraid and had the money.
