Poetry...and other random thoughts...

For those of you interested in reading some of the poems I wrote check out this link...

I don't know who the first person listed is but under the last two Ashley Nicole Mattocks are all the poems I have posted online.  In other words they are my best poems.  My friend Kjirsten Marie Barker from BYU-I hooked me up with this site.  She has some on here too...somewhere.  In case your interested that is.

In other news...I finished all my errands today and I have supplies to make three blankets.  I am behind by four so I need to get stuff for just one more and I'm good.  The three I am going to be making this week are for, Simon Cope, Matthew Chugg and Aubrey Miller.  The fourth one is for Lucas Chugg who is almost 2 so I think he will get his for his birthday...that way I don't have to rush to find the perfect fabric.  They are going to be so freaking cute.  I love picking out fabric to make blankets.  It is really relaxing and fun.  Sure making them is just as relaxing and fun but it is also hot and painful.  So for the one to three days it takes to make the blankets I am miserable but relaxed...make sense...I know it doesn't but I'm ok with that.  I am concerned about getting one finished this week and that is the one for Matthew Chugg.  The others aren't quite as pressing since I don't even have an address to send Aubrey Miller's too yet.  Simon has waited 4 months as well so he can wait just a little longer.

Umm...literally everything but my books and bathroom are packed and that is only because I have nowhere to put them.  Of course I left enough clothes for the next two weeks unpacked and I still have a lot in the kitchen as well.  I am an active packer...once I start I do it all the way.  Unless I am trying to be discreet and not let anybody know I'm leaving until necessary...like I did with the move to Virginia.  I love packing and moving because it gives me a chance to go through and get rid of things I haven't looked at, worn or used since I moved into that place.  Mainly worn of course.

Well I am off to work on Lucas's blanket.  Update again soon I promise.
