The dishes I have now will work just fine for the parties I will have. I don’t plan on throwing fancy parties or having all my family over for holiday meals. But I’m never going to end up living a “traditional” lifestyle. I’ve also gotten rid of duplicate utensils. I’ve paired it down to the most complete set. So now this time all the old ones are going. So a while back I had bought a new set of plates and bowls. But as I get older I want to get things that fit my style. I’ve received a lot of my dishes from my mother. At the time I said, I haven’t used these in forever and I don’t have room for them. But to be honest, I regret purging a lot of the items I did. I did one purge back when I moved into my last apartment. I also think I might try using some in cross stitch projects since I am keeping a few of the seed beads. So the next thing I need to do is start looking at projects that use beads. I’m keeping colors that really speak to me and beads that are big enough to also be used with yarn. I’ve decided that I just don’t have time for it. So far I’ve gone through most of my beading supplies. But I feel like it’ll do me some good to at least see what I have and start making plans for some of it. I’ll have to make that decision tomorrow. I haven’t decided yet if I’m going to get rid of any of it yet. Since I keep getting more and more yarn from my mother each year and I haven’t been doing any projects. Monday is the day I’ve set aside to go through my yarn. I found my dragonwing scarf, but still need to figure out where the second skein of yarn is hiding. I really don’t have much need for it till the fall anyway. I think that’ll be my project for August. I have about a row and a half plus the cable style bind off to finish still. I also started working on my hooded shawl again since an extra skein of the yarn used was found in my mother’s stash. I didn’t end up finishing the second one until I had surgery in May and was stuck at home for a week. I decide to start on one of the many projects I’ve wanted to do. When my grandfather died at the beginning of the year I ended up taking a 4 day trip to go visit my mother and go to his military funeral. I’m working on sorting out what it is that I want to do. I have done a few projects over the last year that I need to share and post. So far it hasn’t been working out that way. I’ll actually find time and energy to do all the projects I want to. Often times I think that when I move into a new place things will get better.
