Oh dear here I go again skipping days.  This time thought I was sick.  It is/was just a head cold but it knocked out two posts.  I wanted to post on Sunday because that was the one year anniversary of blogging.  As of right now I have 250 posts and over 2,000 views.  Thanks!  Let's see if I can entertain you for another year.  On the plus side I have a bunch of things I want to show you so I hopefully won't be skipping days for a wile.

The picture is of the Sunday's mitts.  Sadly that was about all I got done on Sunday, I was so tired. On Monday I finished the little tootoro so I'll show a picture of him next time.  I have also been working on my socks, both the stripy one (I'm about to turn the heel) and the "Don't cage me in" socks.  The big thing I have been working on (and I mean big) is the grey totoro.  Since it;s a bulky yarn held double it's big and holds it shape fairly well.  I still need to stuff it and am not sure what to use, I'm not sure my usual fiber fill will be enough. I kind of feel like I need to put fabric in the middle and surround it with the fiber fill but I don't have any fabric I want to spare.  If I do use only fiber fill I think it will take a lot. I'll keep you updated. the last thing I will be making is a fox.  I arranged an art exchange with someone I know on the internet.  She will draw me a picture and I will make her a little stuffed fox.  I can't start that for a wile though because I have to order the yarn and I'll do that on Thursday.

I didn't do much this weekend because I was sick.  My husband and I did get caught up on our anime.  I'm really enjoying Haikyu!! The characters in this volleyball anime are so cute.  I did watch some kdrama.   Surplus Princess is still cute and I'm enjoying Plus 9 Boys.  I think I will also start My Lovely Girl.

Outside of fighting a cold the only other thing is that it is my daughter's 11th birthday.  This year, like the year she was born, it's the first day of Autumn.  I actually considered naming her that since she was born on that day but then my husband told me this story he swears is true.  One time wile I was sleeping after she was born my husband asked her the three names we were considering and when he got to Autumn she stuck out her tongue. He decided that was rejection so it was out of the running.   It's a cute story to end this post with.  Have a great day.
