You may or may not know this, but I am doing this amazing on-line course at the moment called
I have already learned quite a bit and have made a few changes (can you spot them?) and tweaked my ‘about me‘ page. Every week Pip gives us an assignment (or two) to do, one of which was to take stock of what we are doing. Well, here goes:

Cooking: Moroccan Lamb Tagine
Drinking: Coffee
Reading: Orhan Pamuk’s – Istanbul Memories and the City
Wanting: A VW Camper Van – so I could kit it out in crochet!
Looking: At stitch directories
Playing: Louis Armstrong – What a wonderful world (my favourite song of all times)
Deciding: On next project
Wishing: For warm weather and sunshine
Enjoying: My family
Waiting: To hear about a design commission
Liking: Too many things to mention
Wondering: If I should change anything else on my blog
Loving: My family
Pondering: Over colour scheme for next project
Considering: A photographic course
Watching: 24 Live another day
Hoping: My girl will do well in her exams
Marvelling: At wizardry of photos taken by others on IG
Needing: Better sleep

Admiring: Simple style
Sorting: My book stash
Buying: A Manual for my new camera
Getting: A friend to teach me some sewing
Bookmarking: All the other Pipster’s blogs
Disliking: Dark Chocolate and people who are always late
Opening: The manual for my camera…soon
Giggling: Over nothing
Feeling: A little unsure at times
Snacking: Chocolate biscuits
Coveting: Cabbages & Roses dresses
Wishing: For less violence in the world
Helping: My friend to knit her first pair of socks
Hearing: Birds singing in my garden
I really enjoyed doing this and might have to make this a quarterly feature on the blog. Still not sure about last weeks task of doing a podcast though, never been so keen on them, and hearing my own voice…I am not so sure I will like that. Might give it a miss!!!
What I have enjoyed a lot is making lots new blogging friends. Meeting new people this way, sharing the up’s and down’s during the course and giving each other support has been tremendous so far, and I am looking forward to the rest of the course.
I can’t wait to see what Pip has in store for us this week.
Why not have a go at stock taking yourself, you can always copy my list and see what you come up with.
Enjoy! X.
