 I'm really excited to get started on these goals. I asked Brian if he was interested in seeing my goals, but the look on his face was "ohmygoshwhatisthiswomanaskingme", so I'm not sure if I will bug him too much about it.

Oh, I started this past week with the Wii and I've done five days so far. Today will be six. Yee ha!

 

 

 

 

And the tutorial is moving right along. I'm up to page 12 now and I've drawn the templates for the patterns. Next I have to take a bunch of pictures of in-progress shots and write up the steps for the different patterns. 

 

update: I'm done with all of the pictures... I think ... now it just time to write, write, WRITE!
