Edited to Add: Yikes! This is too small and does not fit over my heel. I leaned a very valuable lesson here ... the strands from the colorwork make this less stretchy than usual. I think I need to experiment with gauge for this project. ;)

Project 365 - Prayer Book and Crucifix
This is the crucifix I was given when incorporated into Regnum Christi, and my prayer book. These have a lot of meaning in my spiritual life.
The crucifix is the same as the one that Pope John Paul II used at the top of his staff. I got to see the staff up close when Vatican Splendors came to our area last year. I wanted to jump over the glass case that was holding it so I could touch it, but I didn't want to be tackled and/or arrested by security. ;)

FREE Dishcloth Pattern - 3x3 Ribbed Cloth
Completed Dishcloths
This dishcloth is called Waffle Knit, and I just love how it works with variegated yarn. I will definitely knit more of this one.

Project 365 - Janie with Cone
Janie has a sore toe that she keeps licking and will not leave alone. I took her to the vet, and they suggested we try putting a cone on her so she can't lick her toe. Nice idea, but these things are obviously not made for greyhounds. Her nose and legs are so long that she can still get to the toe, so after 2 days we took the cone off. She hated it and tried everything to get it off. Here she is pouting because mean mommy is taking an embarrassing picture. ;) She is on antibiotics, so hopefully her toe will heal quickly and she will leave it alone.

Project 365 - FlyLady Timer
I use my timer every day to keep my self on track and keep from getting sidetracked for too long. I learned this from FlyLady. When I have something I don't want to do (like cleaning), I set the timer for 15 minutes. If I want to continue after that I can, and this is what usually happens. But, if I feel like stopping, I give myself permission to do so. "I can do anything for 15 minutes." :) Most of the time on weekends I will do 15 minutes of fun and then 15 minutes of work and then 15 minutes of fun again. It really helps me get a lot done.
