All Works in Progress

Hello to the Interwebs,

This what should be the first of many posts so lets start with the introductions. My name is Michelle Willson and I was born in St, John's, Newfoundland Canada. I presently live in Texas with my husband.

I have been a crafter for many years starting with simple pipecleaner candy canes as a little girl but I've mostly done a lot in plastic cavas and cross stich having the patcence for both. Then just a few months ago I started to learn how to crochett and have gone from scratching my head at the book i bought to making up my own paterns that are getting more and more complex as I go. This blog is first for following that progress as I learn more with practice and get better at this new hobby that I enjoy so well.

However upon thinking about it this is not the only work in progress in my life. I am even in more need of improving myself and my health. Like so many others these days i am over weight and to make matters worse I have a gentic joint condition that makes it hard to exercise and that the wieght is making worse. Staying motivated and acountable in that weight loss has always been the hard part in losing weight (well that and and having a huge sweet tooth) so I'm hoping that this will help me stay motivated in that regard atleast.

So my plan is to post 3 times a week I believe on Tusedays, Thursdays and Saturdays one will be a craft post, one will be a health post  and the last will be on whatever random things pop into my head at that time. Some of these things may be all over the place but in my experence that's what most people are a random mishmash of things they've learned and things picked up over the years so I hope that this will apeal to someone out there.
