Sneak Peak of the Week

I think I am on a roll today!  Actually, I am not.  I just learned the hard way this week that I shouldn't procrastinate the way I do.  When I was in college and growing up in general, I would always put things off and wait until the last minute.  It didn't matter much then.  Now I am fully grown with a family, living in the Real World.  All that time that I used to have to spend up all night trying to sort things out that I should have done earlier just doesn't exist.  These days, it's Now or Never.  And unfortunately for me, it's usually Never.

I have been screwing around with all these Ta-dahs that were supposed to be posted in some sort of a timely fashion...and my idea of giving a sneak peak of the week has been thwarted by faulty internet connections and pure laziness on my part.  I should call it "Random Sneak Peak", so that no one gets the false impression that I am on top of things and remotely capable of keeping with some sort of schedule.  I am not.  I have never really been much of a "scheduled" kinda gal.

All of that changes in about 36 hours.  I am starting to unofficially homeschool my Little Darling.  She is too young and small for Kindergarten this year, despite the fact that she is so very ready for school.  So I figured I should homeschool her.

Perks: I can go at her accelerated learning pace.  I can control what she is learning and how.  I can see how this goes and decide better if she should attend "regular" school next year.

Downfalls:  I have to be consistent, stick to a schedule, and be unwaveringly dedicated to her education on my own.  Sounds better than it is.  It really goes against my natural state of being.

With all of that said, I figured I should start making my posts a part of my regular weekly routine.  I am going to get better at this blogging thing if it kills me!  Hahahaha!

This week.........  I just have one question for you:


What do all three of these balls of yarn have in common.  Clue:  No, they are not going to be used on the same project, or any project at all......  Stay tuned to see what the answer is, and leave a comment if you have a guess.  It may be worth your while :)

  1. The yarn, well, let's see... They're all the same brand. They're the same weight. They're all multi-color. They look like they might be featured in a giveaway of sorts ;)
    xo,

  5. My guess is that you got them from the thrift store - I honestly can't think of anything else. :)

    P.S. Like the colorways.
