These are the baby mitts that I made on Sunday.  For some reason the background came out blue. I tried to fix it without  changing the color of the mitts. I'm not sure it worked so well.  I started working on one of the totoros that I plan to make.  I guess I assumed that most people know what a totoro is and never explained it but maybe I should.  There is a studio Ghibli movie called My Neighbor Totoro about two little girls who meet a spirit of the forest that is called a totoro.  If you are curious you can look it up.  I highly recommend it, it's a really sweet movie. The creature is kind of roundish with a kind of cat type face. In the movie there are three sizes a small one that is about small cat size, a medium one that is about medium dog size and big one that is about the size of a bear.  I want to make all three but of course they won't be proportional.  Right now I'm working on the medium size one and when I get to the eyes I'll make extra for the little one.  The little one's body is done I just need to do the finishing like eyes, tail and feet.  The medium one is going fairly quickly so I'm hoping to have the body done today so I can work on the extremities tomorrow.

I watched kdrama yesterday.  I caught up on It's Okay, That's Love and Surplus Princess. It's kind of hard to explain It's Okay... without spoiling.  Basically we are learning about our hero's back story so we can understand why he's crazy.   With Surplus Princess (The Idle Mermaid) it's just funny, there isn't really anything deep going on that I see.   The thing that made me laugh the most was a parody of GDragon's "Crooked." I also started a new one called Plus 9 Boys.  The concept of this one is that when your age ends in 9 you will be unlucky.  There is a family of boys who have just turned 9, 19, and 29 with and uncle who is 39. The drama will follow their progress as they try to break their curse.  I watched one episode of it but I was having trouble with my internet so I couldn't watch all of episode 2.  Today I'll watch/listen to podcasts.

I think that's about it.  The kids are back in school so I have house work to do.  I feel like I had something else to say but I don't remember so it must not be important.  I'm going to go do something constructive.  See you next time.
