June 10, 2013


Sleeping has not been so great the past couple of nights. I'm not sure exactly why but it has taken me a long time to fall asleep and then I end up waking up several times throughout the night. It kind of sucks.

Before work today I didn't have too much going on. My sister stopped by and I drilled a couple holes in the new bird feeder she got and put some dowels in it for the birds to perch on. I also worked a tiny bit on my cross stitch. And I made a giant pattern for my “Home Sweet Home” QR code and messed with the colors for it. I found out that the code doesn't have to be black so I think it would be cool to make one with a bunch of different colors. I can't really remember anything else of importance.

At work tonight I watched Reaper, read my book, and worked on my cross stitch. Making the outline for the figure with only half stitches was probably the dumbest decision I have made in awhile. Yesterday I had to pull out half of it because I went one square too far and it messed up everything after it. Today I started that second half again, doing full stitches this time, and got about three-quarters of the way done when I realized I was still a square off somewhere. I slowly went through each stitch and eventually found it about a quarter of the way from the start. So I tore everything out again and started from the beginning, doing full stitches. Good grief. I should have been done with the whole thing a long time ago. By the end of the night I managed to finish the outline and got a few rows of the inside done. Slow progress. I should be able to finish it tomorrow at work. Hopefully.
