Still trying to walk most days, though am not always successful. The goal is hit 10,000 steps (5miles) a day. Recently I switched from The One (fitbit) to The Flex (fitbit). The One clips on a pocket (I often don't have a pocket so clipped it on my bra), but he clip broke. The sleep band for it also was ripping and not staying sealed well at night, making it not very reliable to monitor my sleep and or to wake me up. Rather than buy 2 new pieces for the old unit, I opted for the bracelet thing you see everyone wearing.....The Flex. I had a plain black band but decided I needed to jazz it up a bit and order the pack of 3 above. Stripes, polka dots, and checkered...all a bit dressier.
I also ordered this fun pack of 10 solid colors.........will be nice to have things sorta go with my outfit, makes it look more like a bracelet?
Happy Belated Mothers Day to all. Took some time and looked through some pictures of my Mom the other day, since she's no longer with us, Mothers Day is a bit different. Though I really enjoyed hearing from my DD. We chatted about an up coming trip where we'll get to spend some quality time together. Lots of balls of yarn. I had a bit of a mess, partially used skeins, some twisted and tangled and decided I really needed to do something about it. Sooooooooooo
thank you Hubby...purchased a ball winder. Soooooooo much nicer then rolling balls all by hand. AND with the cakes (believe that's the correct term), you have the option of an inside pull and or outside edge with each cake. The ball winder also doesn't wind too tightly (which I tend to do), far nicer for good yarn. So I untangled and wound and now have manageable sized cakes/balls to work with. These are some of the colors I'm using with this project.
Calling this ghan, Learning Logs. With using multiple pieces of yarn at a time, the tangling was really getting to be a problem. Having the smaller, nicely wound cakes/balls should improve the process.
