So closes another NaPoBloMo. Phew. Did I feel this frenetic last year over this? (Probably not; I was sitting on my rapidly expanding arse with my foot up, so it gave me something to do.) There were a number of nights, most of them this last week, where if I hadn't come so far I wouldn't have blogged. Crazy to walk in the door at 9:00, eat dinner, and blog before dropping into bed at 10:00. (I need my beauty rest!) And it showed. The polls (see below) might be the lamest thing to result from the experiment. Or maybe it's pure brilliance. As Jean-Francois Lyotard once said at a conference at USC, "Boff, oo is to say, ehn?" (The dude gets a lot of mileage from that.)So, I've lost track this crazy month: did I have goals? Why, yes, you did.
- Finish 60th birthday gift before 11/17--check!
- Finish Summers to Come before 11/17--check!
- Stitch "Beer" for dad--See above. Mistakes were made. Some were unstitched; some we kept.
- Finish in-law ornaments--scrapped, and that was a brilliant idea
- Finish caterpillar eyeglass holder--on tap for this weekend. Look for photos Monday.
- Finish Skull Girl for Sissy--Plans changed. But, Melissa, I will stitch this someday!
- Make felted soap for the dude--this won't take so long, she says checking in the cupboards for extra time to put in the day.
- Blog every day--Done. (Swoons and falls down in heap.)
- create snowman tree topper
- caterpillar eyeglass holder for 12/5
- finish fisherman ornament for 12/24
- finish Elisabeth’s stocking for 12/24
- finish Jillian’s stocking for 12/24
- make lobster stew for 12/24
- sew overnight case for 12/25
- finish beer stitched piece for 12/25
- felted soap for 12/25
PS Thanks for sticking with me for 30 days!

I just dropped in on the last day of the month, but I'm going backwards for the whole 30, honest!
You done good!
Good job on blogging every day for November. I sure saw the results in the constant high count in my reader. :)
Whew, you got a lot done this month!!! And big congratulations on making it through the entire month of blogging with everything else you had going on.
Congrats on getting so much done - and blogging all month too!! Good luck with your new goals. I am hoping elves (or hobbits) will show up to help me with mine.
Good job on the NaBloPoMo - I managed it too, although it took some planning - yours was much more entertaining than mine :o)
