So here goes my weekly post.

I haven't much to report, so unless I wax poetic about SOMETHING, this should be a short one.

I've been super busy at work this week...I know, I know, everyone says that.  But it's been true in this case.  I have come home every night exhausted, that it takes all my energy just to have a nice evening time conversation with my husband.  One of our people went on vacay this week, and somehow I got everything dropped in my direction.  You try balancing your normal duties plus someone else'.  Grrrrrrr.

So in short, my cross-stitch has suffered.  I've put about 3 hours into it this week, and that was all during my lunch breaks.  She's (Lotsa-Heart Elephant) coming along nicely...just not nearly fast enough.  She's built from the top of the tummy to the base of the nose/trunk.  No new pictures to add of it.  Maybe for next week.

Some good news though, It was approved that next quarter (October - December) I will start teaching a crochet class.  Each month, we should complete a whole blanket.  October and November the students will be able to choose from two different patterns.  December, I made it easier on myself, and everyone will be making the same blanket.  So, most likely the fruits of my labor will wind up listed on Etsy.  Since I'm teaching it as a class, there will be homework each week to have completed.  I've gone over the patterns, and already decided how much needs to be finished during each class to complete the blankets.  That also means that I will have to do my homework too!

Well, that's all I got, so thanks for stopping by.  And don't forget to check out my Etsy store at: http://www.etsy.com/shop/SaltedBones
