On a whim a few days after New Years, I ordered a needlepoint canvas and watched a thousand tutorials on various stitches and started working on it. It took me about a week to finish (the canvas was very small) and I stopped into my local needlepoint shop a couple of weekends ago to buy my second project. I love having something to do at the end of the night while I listen to my audiobook that keeps my phone out of my hands. We'll see how long the enthusiasm for this hobby lasts but so far, I'm very much enjoying it.
My book club is reading Symphony of Secrets by Brendan Slocumb for our February book. I've finished it and really enjoyed it! It was definitely a page turner!
Early this week, I arrived at the office for work and realized that I had somehow forgotten to put on any jewelry. I basically always wear earrings and a ring and often a necklace or two. Consequently, I felt completely underdressed all day. The first I thing I did when I got home was put on pajamas and a pair of earrings.
Today, I ran a mile without stopping. I had fallen off running at the end of last year, and I've been doing run walks since Christmastime. But today, I made myself run the whole mile without stopping before any walking. It took me more than sixteen minutes, but I did it. And I'm very proud of myself.
