My sock... And Twits...

Since I forgot to put my photo of my Travelling Fairy sock up yesterday, I put it up today, both up, and folded down.



I will post the other when I finish it, with this one, mostly to show how goofy I am...  Let's just say I like scrap socks...

In other things, I have enjoyed Twitter, though I mostly am reading it, off and on, not twitting tweeting much, just occasionally as I think of something.  But I must say, people are... well... You decide.

I had about 3 or 4 followers, other book writers.  I noticed that all the sudden I was getting LOTS of followers (for me), I think it had gone up to ten or so, in a day.  I just had my account open, who ever wanted to join, could.  Then I actually started looking at the folk joining.  Other book folk?  Ahem. 

No.

Every last one had to do with p*rn.  Specifically websites that were on the header of each.  I was rather rattled, so I checked on the Twitter site for information on how to block them, and quickly changed my status to private...  Well, at least people need approval before becoming a follower.  I also blocked the ones already following me that were doing that.  

Sorta made me want to wash my hands after dealing with it, but hopefully it won't happen again, or at least as easily.  The odd thing?  That's why I made my comments section on this blog "after approval", I was getting responses with websites of the same quality.  

Ew.  Just... Ew...  I can't figure why a blog about me, or my Twitter feed would interest someone like that.

I state again...

Ew.

My day, tweetingly? Tweeted? A bunch of Twits? Meh. You get the idea.

Slept in. Hey! It's getting light at 7 am, FINALLY!

Chicken house cleaning commence! (Ick!)

Start the dryer, start the laundry.

Knitpicks.  More yarn.

So, where's the money tree?
-----
Well, need to go back to laundry...

(Ya know, this is kinda fun, in a "haiku" sort of way.  Still don't know if I will sign up for Tweetledom, but it does make you think small.  Which isn't normally how I write.  Or talk.  Or much of anything else...)

Prompt: Beyond avoidance. What should you have done this year but didn't because you were too scared, worried, unsure, busy or otherwise deterred from doing? (Bonus: Will you do it?)

What SHOULD have done, hmm...  Should have become a rock star, trashed a hotel room or three, had risque' liaisons with numerous people so I could write a tell all book.

Nah, that seems like way too much work...  Besides, I don't want to have to dye my hair.

In all truth, the "no" thing I wrote about is a work in progress, I am am figuring out how to 'unentangle' myself from a few things, and join some others.  News as events warrant. 

I haven't finished my barn quilt blocks, (mostly because I can't figure out if I want to do the one, or if I want to have more than one.  Husband is very patient about this, I think the longer I don't have it finished, the longer it will be before he has to put them on the barn!), But I do have 2 block patterns finished, soon to be three, if I would actually sit down and color them in.

I have actually started to write a bit on the book this last week, which hasn't amounted to more than half a page, but it's more than before I started, right? 

And I need to get going on my guitar stuff, but can't find the video.  I think I know where the books are, however.  (It's always something, isn't it?)

Technically, these questions also qualify as "should have done".  This was a group thing in December, and I was barely able to keep up with my email in that month, let alone do discourse on navel gazing...

So, guess that's about what I can think of, at the moment.  No hotel rooms have been harmed in the making of this blog entry...
