Lots of knitting.

This week there has been a lot to knitting, and some frogging. I started and frogged Oak leaves cardigan. It was turning out way too small in the sleeves. This project would be better after I lose weight to try again. I also started a baby hat and a baby sweater. I made some progress on Elizabeth shawl.

No spinning so far this week. Every time I think about it, something else comes up. I do want to start again, better luck next week.
 
Went to my first Weight Watchers meeting (well the first for this try) and I think it went well. I feel energized and full of hope. Watching my intake and exercise I should be able to get this weight off.

It's about time

I'm back in a losing weight mood. I need to get the weight off. I need to get into better shape. I need to set goals for myself and follow them.

Goals for weight loss
1 Start working out a little bit every day.
2 Start back at Weight Watchers and go to weekly meetings
3 Blog post weekly on how things are going


I really don't need knitting goals except for no more buying yarn, bags, needles, and patterns. I have enough of those things right now.

I need to set spinning goals. I have two wheels and they are not getting used as much as they should.

Spinning goals
1 Spin every day for at least 10 minutes
2 Finish spinning for sweater
3 Blog post weekly finished spinning.
