Take a little look at this…

Published on April 4, 2016 by Nicola Florence @ ayarnyrobin

I couldn’t help it, I know I shouldn’t have: but I have been feeling very overwhelmed with this…

For the most part I can convince myself with the romantic notion of setting my boys a good example of being a hard working Momma at University, with striving ambition and an avid determination to follow your dreams. But, (huge sigh and just a little teardrop!)…right now it sucks! So you see I couldn’t help but open my birthday present a whole week early.

It is helping me with my mental health as I am so busy concentrating on learning a new skill, that there is no room for anxious thoughts about essays.

Seed stitch…oh yeah!

You definitely needed a fun distraction. Happy early Birthday! That loom looks like a fun way to do seed stitch! That is one of those stitches that looks so pretty, but I just hate knitting it. The loom looks like it would go pretty quickly, too.

We can do this! (Quivering bottom lip/sniff) xx

P.s I have reserved 3rd book down but can’t bring myself to fetch it!

P.p.s I think that’s the same as my loom

I will be going back to school in January (I think….nervous laughter). 52 years old and a student again. I’m hoping I’ll still have some time to craft along the way. Stress reliever maybe. I have some looms somewhere in the craft room. Maybe I’ll dig those out.

  Oh wow…congratulations. I have just finished and the hard work has all been worth it. It is exciting and nerve wracking doing something new…if you ever need any virtual moral support give me a virtual shout. Good luck xx
