I just figured out that having new users on my website was not a good thing. So if you are a new website owner beware if you get new"users" on your website. My website is on Wordpress, so I don't know if it applies to other websites. So the thing I said about comment prizes will be changed a little. Stay tuned and I will let you know all about it next week. Thanks so much for your continued support and views. If you have any information and other things I need to know please leave a comment to let me know. Any information is much appreciated.

Story Of The Week
I figured out what was going on with my eating, and made some improvements to my eating and I haven't had any cheating so far this week. I realized I was not eating enough calories during the day and that was tripping me up after work.
I also Learned some new to me techniques in my knitting. I learned the 3 needle bind off, and I made some cute stuffed animals in prep for the Bakery Bear.
I also figured out a way to get the exercise in.

Story Of The Week
Its about trying new things. You know how it is when you see a pattern to technique that you want to try, but it seems too scary. So you just don't try it and it sits in an unfinished project or pattern that you bought months ago. You don't start because you are afraid to fail. On Tuesday this week I was thinking about the podcast, and I thought about the fiber that was waiting to be plied. It had rested enough. I took the bull by the horns and got everything ready, watched the YouTube Videos again, and just tried it. And it was pretty easy to get the hang of it. Next thing for me to tackle in fiber is the Bakery Bear. It has been looming a bit. After that I have to tackle that exercise thing….

Story Of The Week
We had a very nice Easter. I made the jello covered marshmallows , and the JellyBean Bracelets for the kids. The Marshmallows were a lot of fun but I don't recommend the bracelets. They were messy.
