137: Socks

Well, I FINALLY did it…I finished the socks that I had been knitting for Scott.  Now the story is…I have been knitting them for about 3 YEARS!!!!  It is easy for me to get the first sock done but then when I have to do the second…argh…it just seems so….boring!!!!!  Whew..it feels great to have them done and they will end up being a Christmas present…good thing my family does not depend on me for them huh!?  Silly thing to post I suppose but I am so happy to have them done ;0)

My back is also improving…I am not taking the Vicadene anymore.  The colors are all gone..it is  just muscle sore now and I need to start stretching it–ouch!  I will be adding a page to the side of this blog/website. 

I am changing the direct of my doll making and I have decided to work on making my own BJDs.  The added page on the side will be reflecting that WIP (work in progress).   I suppose it seems a natural progression.  Movement in a doll is important to me..in my opinion if it cannot move it is a sculpture and not a doll.  I have been increasingly frustrated with joints and movements in my dolls.  Awhile ago someone suggested to me that I move into ball-joints for my doll and I had resisted–opps, here I am LOL.
