Hygrometer's Happy Face Has a Happy. With a Hat!

Hey.  2013!  And we’re still here.  Yayness!  There was much hubbub about possible Maya Apocalypse.  And then December 22^nd or 23^rd arrived and this apocalypse got moved to the long list of Apocalypses That Didn’t Quite Happen on Wikipedia.  Sometimes would like to see inside the mind of people who believe things like this.  Then again.  Maybe it’s best I don’t.  Hums. 

So, new year.  Would like to wish all my loyal fans a very happy, wonderful, healthy, fantastic, creative, 2013!  Yay!  Will be a most promising year for sure.  With many things happening and maybe we’ll even remember some of it.  Odd how we forget so much so quickly.  Maybe should speak for myself though.  Though human brain is probably designed to forget as much as possible. Or store it away in a dusty box you’ll never open again.  Otherwise mind would go boom.  BOOM!  Headsplosion!  Yesterday came up with “toysplosion” to indicate the status of living room.  Am now inventing many many splosions.  Possibilities are endless!  Wordsplosion!

So.  What shall we do in 2013.

1.  We shall not buy yarn simply because it is pretty and then “be sure we’ll find the perfect project for it”.  Date of Phail: January 7^th.   Yay me!

2.  We shall not promise everyone and their puppy to crochet/knit them something.  Date of Semi Phail: January 5^th.  Have entered another Pay It Forward Thingie.  This is a lovely concept where you offer to make something for five people.  Those five people will make something for five new people.  Etcetera.  Etcetera.  Tried this for 2012 and made 0 out of 5 thingies.  Unyay!  In my defense, the people who wanted stuff from me didn’t ALL post the offer on their Facebook pages.  So I guess they got what they deserved.  Yay after all!  Will try to do better this year.  Am sure Nerd Wars will be a great help.

3.  We shall provide our husband with a handmade item.  Well, I have 75% of a man sock so far, so definitely getting somewhere.  Hang in there, love!  Teehee. 

4.  We shall be a better person.  Um well.  Suppose am not a bad person.  But always room for some improvement.  Tiny ones.  Mebbe. 

5.  We shall have less stuffsplosions in our house.  Really… Stuffs have life of their own.  I clear away The Stuffs.  And an hour later The Stuffs are back.  With Friends!  How?  Why?  Date of Phail:  birth.  Am genetically disadvantaged in the Battle Against the Stuffs. 

Ok, shabby list.  Chuckle.  Should do this more often than once a year, but well.  Oh. Oh. OH!  Right.  This sounded much better in my head than when I see it written there.  OhohohOH.  Nope.  Not better.  Is almost as bad as writing a sentence in Dutch and add one single word in English.  Being pies.  Which is pee (kinda).  And when talking about cooking books, one doesn’t want to involve pee.  Well, kidneys aside.  But don’t eat kidneys.  

6.  We shall write our blog more often.  Hums.  Seriously.  How hard can it be?  And really should add some crafting posts with pics I guess.

7.  We shall finish our volunteer training.  Woohoo.  Hopefully.  That would also greatly help to achieve 4.  Doing something useful for world!  Supreme yay!  All kidding aside, that would be great indeed.  But at this point not very sure I’ll make it.  Am not feeling 100% happy about it atm.  Oh well.

Right.  List will be put on the internet.  Denial no longer possible.  Dumdumdum. 

Dum.

Dumdeedumdum.

Oh.  Have learned Toddler Girl to sing “we’re gonna eat a sandwich” in Indiana Jones style.  Parental win!
