Christmas gifts from the heart

So I know this isn't a quilting blog or anything, but I have been sewing a lot lately and so for Christmas I decided to make rag quilts for my two nieces. One is going to be a pink doggy and one is going to be a purple cat. And both will have the other's colors in it for the eyes, nose, and ears. So far I got all the parts for the dog cut out and most of them sewn as individual pieces as of right now.

Once I'm finished each will be 50'' inches long.

So this is what the head of the dog looks like without being sewn together and with a dark pink piece replacing a piece another piece that I have yet to get to yet. This almost takes up my love's mother's sewing table.

I am also planning on making something for both my sister's and my brother, but just in case they read this I'm not going to say what it is until after Christmas.

I will post updates of my progress as I get further along and hopefully on Christmas I'll be able to post pictures of my nieces with them.

I'm Baaack

And sick once again. So I'm in my second month of college, still unemployed and unable to go to the doctor due to no money. Tis is life though. I'm not here to complain though. Just to update everyone on my life.

Within this month my niece has had her first birthday, I've missed almost a whole week of class in all, and I have become almost obsessed with Animal Crossing. Thanks Roger...

I have been putting off all my stories and art projects and have kinda ignored my computer for quite some time now. I am only on it today because I know I need to.

On top of all that I started two online comics about a month ago and they can be found through the links I'll post at the bottom at this post. The first one takes place in the Victorian Era and is mixed with fantasy. Or it will once I get that far. The story follows a young 18 year old boy who has been raising his three year old sister since their parents died only two months after she was born. It also follows the story of a Duke's daughter who finds herself falling for the boy and his life.

The second is about the Greek Gods and the first part "Will My Moon Rise?" is about a forbidden love between Apollo and his sister Artemis. Now keep in minds this isn't based off any myth of them, just my imagination. Also many gods made their siblings their wife/husband so it's really not that strange...

Neither of them have much to them now but they will soon

Ok so I haven't written on here in awhile. I don't know why I just haven't. But now I'm on here with a challenge for myself.

Last night I watched "Rent" and got to thinking. Only like six years ago everyone video taped everything; Why don't we anymore? So I'm chalenging myself to record a year of lives and everything that goes along with this year. I'll be posting small clips from it as often as possible on both my youtube and here. And at the end of the challenge I will be making a movie with all the things I film.

So here starts my first day in the chalenge. Wish me luck!

AFO!!!!

So in about an hour I'll be getting ready to go to an anime convention and I'm really excited. I'll be going all three days and on Sunday I'll be wearing a costume I made. It's a human form of the Pokemon Vaporeon.

Sick Again

I'm sorry I haven't written in awhile. Between being sick for the past two weeks and always seeming to be busy I just haven't gotten on. If any of you read my love's and mine co-authored blog book Curse of The Sea, sorry. Roger promised we'd submit a new chapter every Saturday, but its been about three weeks. We do plan on updating soon, but this weekend we're booked.

Yes as the title says I was sick yet again. This time it wasn't just me but also Roger, his brother and sister, and his grandmother. But of course I stayed sick after the rest was getting over it and missed my grandmother's birthday because of it.

Roger is still slightly sick, but we're guessing it's because he got sick after everyone else.

I really don't have anything else to say so I'm going to say good bye and go work on getting some scholarships. Bye everyone.

P.S, Thanks Kio for all the good advice!

Wish it was easier to give up

I'm not going to give up, because its to hard the way that I am. But right now I wish I could. I wish I could say fuck it to everything.

Haven't slept all night. Why? Pain. I was fine most the time at my friend's campfire party. Was actually really tired there to. Got home couldn't sleep. About 2:30 started shacking, having pains, and hyperventilating. Can't go to the hospital, I'm already in debt. Pain killers aren't helping.

If you can't tell I'm snippy right now.

Been watching my love sleep most the night. Wish I could. He looked so peaceful till I woke him up. I feel so selfish now. I don't understand why he isn't mad at me for waking him up. Feel like the world hates me. I thought I was getting better. Thought that things were going to get better. My love made it feel that way...

Nope... It was just waiting for me to lower my guard. Hate this. I feel so pissy right now and I know it is not rational at all. Just tired and in pain.

Does any of this even make sense? It does in my head.... I think.....

Don't know what else to write. My love is reading over my shoulder so I guess it doesn't matter anyways. Seeming I don't have private thoughts I wrote all this here. Don't have a dairy or journal now a days. Everyone would just read those anyways... Any how bye. I'm going to drown myself in sugar....

Growing Up Craziness

As I've stated before I have been moved out of my mom's for a while now. But I have been living with my love and his mom, grandma, and his two younger siblings. Me and him share a room big enough to fit a young child comfortably. I have all my things from my mom's (which could fill a house on their own) plus some of his things, a large desk, a vanity, a dresser, a bookshelf, and about 5+ medium to large boxes. So we have been looking for a nice place to move into to finally finish the "coming of age" transition.

Now I have been looking like crazy but here are the facts. My love works at Denny's part-time and is going to college full-time. I am currently unemployed due to medical reasons and frantically looking for a job that doesn't require heavy lifting or too much manual labor. When we move out I will have to take me cat back from my mom. I will be starting college full-time in the Fall. And on top of all this we don't have a car.

We decided we'll get a car last seeming it'll be cheaper to just ride bikes to and fro school and all. But seriously! If I know being even 18 was this much work I'd never want to grow up when I was little. "I'm going to be a farmer mommy!" Yay right. I can hardly afford one cat. And they take care of themselves for the most part.

Yep tis the life. I guess once we're finally on our own things will fall into place for me. Maybe then I'll remember why I couldn't wait to grow up.
