It's amazing how much lint is in your belly button!


I must confess, the picture you see doesn't show the sweater* I'm making. That's right, it isn't finished. I took a picture of my progress, but My parent's camera's SD card wouldn't load anything onto the computer. Lately I've been putting my yarn skein in my shirt so I can walk and crochet at the same time. And that's where I came up with today's title. And if you're wondering why I haven't corrected th PVC pipe post's title it's because my mom thought it would make it a bit funnier (when she saw my flaw).

I haven't been able to think of a single thing to blog about lately, so...

Did I ever tell you that I know how to do origami? Well, here's some pictures of origami I've done

You know it's cold when...

PBC weaponry

On this previous Friday, February 13, Some of my relatives and I went to a park in Scottsdale. My cousins, Peter and Jean Luc, brought 2 swords, 2 staffs, & 2 battle axes- made of PBC pipes and duct tape! Yesterday, My mom and dad brought PBC pipes home (along with duct tape and necessary attachments, like 4-way intersects and end stubs) and made 3 staffs and 3 swords. We didn't make battle axes because those are more breakable. The rest can be said in the video above. Hope you enjoy it!

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek! Jogging!!

I was watching too much tv the past three nights. I will see if I won't do that again. Anyway, I have been jogging. The first day I did 2 miles in 34 minutes. The next day I shaved off 5 1/2 minutes to break my record at a speedy 28.5 minutes!

Who said that 11-year-olds weren't domestic?

Yesterday, (Saturday) the Goodman's left. But during that morning, I put my baby cousin, Valor, in a baby pack and crocheted while she was in there. Very domestic, wouldn't you say?

Equalizer, what's an equalizer?


I have an iPod, and it is a third generation Nano. I basically know what every part of it does except the EQ. I know the Equalizer is supposed to equalize, but I tried putting the piano EQ on, and the songs with pianos in them didn't sound any different.

When 6-year-olds get unobservant and BBQ ribs grow enormously


Today I went to downtown Pheonix by Metro Train. My bros, my dad, the Goodmans, and Binky's brother (along with 2 of 3 of his sons and his daughter) came with me. We all went to The House of Congress (which is now a museum). After that we went to a resturant called Honey Bears'. Their motto is "You don't need no teeth to chew our meat!" and seriously, I'm not making this up. Their BBQ ribs were huge and I only ordered the half batch. Atticus was going to film us there, but he forgot to press the recording button. The big red button in the middle of the digital camera!

Crochet away!







Today, I finished the tissue box cover for Binki. He is thrilled. If you wonder what kind of yarn I use, It has been multicolored worsted weight skeins of yarn. The yarn to on the left is the same kind of yarn I have been using for a while. I want to try making a sweater with about 8 sleeves. When my real left arm will move the other lefts will move the same. The same will happen to the right arms. Yep sounds wierd. So what?!?!?!
