Today, I Got Nuthin’

I thought I’d be able to make something today, but I just ran out of time and energy. I contemplated making a head wrap / head scarf but didn’t get around to doing it, I made dinner but it was nothing new or particularly…

Working on Big Ideas

Today I spent quite a bit of time writing and thinking and writing some more. First on the idea for a project I’d like to work on, but that needs a sort of a roadmap to proceed; I’ve had the basic idea but am…

Side Project Development

Stomach Bug

The lack of a project for today has been brought to you by the letters ‘stomach bug’ and the number ’24’ (hours). Hope to have something to post for tomorrow!
