In an effort to keep my mind from wandering to the current stress of life, I’m crocheting an afgan.
I’ve found that the movement it kind of like saying a rosary - the methodical motion calms my nerves and centers me. I need a lot of that these days.
Since I figured that I make enough weird [...]

Junk.
We seriously have too much stuff.

I’ve spent the past 2 days sorting my crafting & sewing junk… boy-oh-boy is there a lot!
