Yay Mail!... and Baby Bumps?

Hey all! Oh look, I have follower! Hi there! ...Didn't know anyone really knew about this, teehee. So lately I've been SO zapped of any energy at all. And methinks this is why:



As my pregnancy has progressed, I'm finally getting into my second trimester. FINALLY. The sickness is less often and not as bad, and I'm getting a bit of my energy back. Emphasis on "a bit." I haven't been wanting to do much of ANYTHING lately, which go figure... I signed myself up for lots and lots of stuff this month! Yay, over-achiever Victoria!!

Luckily, I was full of energy today - the sun is shining for the first time it almost a month, thank GOD! Today I wrote 4 post cards, 2 to the states, 1 to Australia and 1 to Norway. I wrote my penpal, finally in the United Kingdom, I wrote a birthday card for someone... I had been wanting to MAKE the birthday card, but I'm really too tired... So I got one of those store-bought ones. I've also been making progress on projects I mentioned in my last post... Here's some pictures!

Square for the Mario Blanket
















Terrible attempt at a Mario "?" Bag. Reconsidering projects.















Bag for a RAK project. Needs a strap and pink pocket!















That's all I've really been able to manage, although I've finished the strap for the RAK project bag and pulled out the yarn for the other RAK bag I committed to... Pulling out the yarn and setting it aside counts, right?! ...Okay, okay, maybe not.

Anyway, I've also RECEIVED lots of awesome, awesome things this month! Several greetings cards, some online patterns and stitch markers!

So I've been really happy with all the mail I've received and I'm still working on getting some stuff out. I heard back from some people I sent to already... The recipient of the Ravenclaw hat said her daughter LOVED it and I offered to make some more of the other Harry Potter house colors. The crochet hook I sent was received and all of my greeting cards have made it to their destinations.

Stay posted for more WIPs and finished products and other generally cool stuff!! :)
