7 Quick Takes Friday

Next month is NaNoWriMo!!!! I can't wait to start writing my story :D


This is a sneak peak at the legwarmers I'm making :)
This is something that I found on Pinterest last week :)

This was also found on Pinterest.

Last week was the fall/winter Free For All that members of the homeschool group, that my family belongs too, runs. Wednesday night was set up and drop off night. I was able to go drop off the several bins and bags that we had and I found anothe.. flannel sheet so I am now able to finish the blanket  that I started making a while ago out of old t-shirts. I was also able to get a couple more shirts in case I need extra for the blanket :) Once it is actually finished I will post pictures of the blanket :)
In case I haven't mentioned them already, some friends of our's just came out with a cd on the 7th. Their group is Simonetta & FourEver! My family has gotten our copy and we have already listened to it :) All of the songs that they sing, except for the last two, are done in Polyphony. Just in case you don't know what Polyphony means here is the definition that I found in the Merriam-Webster dictionary: "a style of musical composition employing two or more simultaneous but relatively independent melodic lines."
My sister Yavi found this on Pinterest and we all died from laughing when we read it :D

#7: :)

I tried NANO only once. I said I wasn't going to this year, but suddenly it occurs to me that I am at the end of a project and chomping at the bit to start my new one. There's virtually no way I could actually finish, not with my life, but it would be good work.

The Other Side of Modesty

When we hear the word modesty, the first thing that comes to mind is clothing that covers everything or the majority of your body. Dressing modestly is something I have grown up with and have been around my entire life. And it can be considered a "hot topic" regarding what girls and women wear. Especially when it comes to places like schools and the workplace. But most people don't realize that modesty isn't just about what you wear; it is also about how you act around others and toward yourself.  Photo by Amanda Canas on Unsplash I am talking about this because I read an article on my Facebook feed the other day about a father who posted a picture with his two daughters in their homecoming dresses. And it was talking about his response to the people commenting on the style of the dresses. I don't remember the article's name, but I do know that it mentioned "girls to dress, so they don't distract boys," as well as saying that they are "aski...

--- 1 --- The other day I was feeling a bit bored so I made a couple covers for the story that I started working on. --- 2 --- A couple of weeks ago I was looking up pictures of the minons from "Despicable Me", don't remember why, but while I was scrolling down the page I came across this minion picture: --- 3 --- I found this on Pinterest a while back... --- 4 --- On Sunday we had to shovel snow off the driveway. It was really cold out and it made my stomach kind of hurt a little bit afterwards. The only bright side, besides being able to come inside and warm up, was getting hot chocolate. --- 5 --- Since I couldn't think of anything else to write for this one I decided to share the first couple sentences of what I have written so far of my story let me know how you like it :) Standing under the only low-lit street lamp Xiomara looked both ways at the quiet street lit only by the light of the street lamps. Sighing to herself...
