Weight Loss

One of my New Year's Resolutions is to lose 50 pounds (roughly a pound a week). Since the beginning of the year I've been weighing myself about once every five days, and I actually saw a 1 pound increase once. But today there was a 3 pound loss from my beginning of the year weight. Thank you exercise.

Mutants, Dentists, and Pilates/Yoga

I finished up a baby mutant sock monkey last night.

(it's supposed to be an ear on top, but since he's a mutant it could really be anything)

Shown with the keyboard for size reference.

I made a blue one for my son out of a pair of his old socks and he loves to hold it by the tail. And then he stuffs it into his mouth, which is how I know he likes the toys I make for him.

The mutant monkey has not, however, been in my son's grubby grasp. I will put him up for sale on Etsy for only $5 (plus $2 for shipping) if there is a request.

And I spent 3 hours at the dentist's office today, only to find out I need a root canal. So back I go on Thursday.
