Building T-rex and Baking Bread

How could I forget about Blog Post Tuesday?  This should be routine by now.

I think I know what happened...

Last night I went to bed later than usual.  I was waiting for my darling husband (we always go to bed together) who was busy with some stuff.  So it was getting later, after 11pm when we finally made it upstairs.  Then after laying in bed for MAYBE 15 minutes my door opens.  And here comes Neezy to sleep with mommy and daddy!  YAY!  No...
Then the wind started blowing and I SWEAR someone was driving a race car somewhere!  Or maybe I was just that tired.  Either way, I couldn't get to sleep.  And then with the time change, waking up at 6am, which use to be 5am is hard!  So I got up, had a mini bagel and then laid down on the couch.  Normally I sleep for 10 minute intervals until I have to get up.  Well... I slept for 15 minutes, woke up, looked at the clock and went to sleep for 15 more minutes.  I looked at the clock, saw I didn't need to be up for another 15 minutes so I went back to sleep.  30 minutes later I jump up, realizing I NEED to get my son up for school.  ::sigh::
Did I mention that it was raining? Yep, so it was all dark and rainy which is perfect for sleeping.

Anyway, so here I am, writing to you :-)

Today I am working on a T-Rex.  This guy is coming along at a rather slow pace.  I'm working from a picture, trying to write my own pattern.  He's pieces right now, not really anything to share.  I have his main body piece, his tail and about 50% of his head done.  He's modeled after a dinosaur from an Annie's Attic pattern which I believe is out of print.

I'm also baking bread.  I have my regular sandwich bread recipe that I tend to make every week.  I've altered it over the years to include different flours and some chia seeds.  Well, today I decided to go a different route.  We're borrowing a cook book from my Mother in Law and I found a bread I wanted to try.  The kids probably won't be super interested because it has sunflower seeds in it but, I don't mind.  That will mean, more for me!  It is Whole Wheat Sunflower Seed Herb bread.  This recipe makes two loaves so I really hope it's good.


And since I don't want to have a whole post without a single picture...

That's me, almost 8 years ago at Disney World.  tehe~ Enjoy :-)
