Send Me Mail
I started the P.O Box in an effort to reach out to my Youtube subscribers and a way to direct order track for my crochet business. Send me mail!
Online Crochet Website
In November I kicked started the online crochet website J Renee Crochet. I have had a few orders since it opened. I was also able to offer some holiday discounts. The crochet website will continue to grow within this new year. I'm glad that in 2014 I was able to get my feet wet in starting the business. I have future aspirations of doing craft shows or salon shows.
Passport
I was beyond excited applying for my passport. Even though I had printed the application in October, took the passport picture in early December, I finally applied during the last week of 2014. I missed by birthday deadline by twelve days. But it's in commute now. I am looking forward to receiving it soon.
Hosting a Dinner Party
I hosted a Friendsgiving event with a few friends right before Thanksgiving. It was catered with traditional Thanksgiving foods. We had cauliflower au gratin, turkey, cranberry sensation, quinoa and broccoli casserole. It was delicious. I shared a pretty awesome announce and we just fellowshipped. A few of my friends I hadn't seen in weeks so we got an opportunity to catch up.
Visiting New Places
I visited a lot of new places. I do not think I documented all the places I went. I did document at least 30. Below will be a picture collage of some of the awesome venues and eateries I visited.
The places are in random order.
Babalu
This is a restaurant in the midtown area of my hometown. They serve tacos and tapas. The atmosphere is nice and they play music overhead. When you order guacamole they come and prepare it at your table. Typing this and thinking about it makes me want to go back like NOW. I ordered three tacos on soft corn tortillas. I got the chicken and I got the shrimp. They looked mini but they filled me up.Volunteering
Each volunteer experience I participated in was fun. The Ghouls at Grassmere was a Halloween event. Parents brought their little ones dressed up in costumes. Some of the parents dressed up as well. It was really adorable. I was feeling baby fever when i saw all the little ones and kept hearing them say, Trick or treat and thank you.
During the Harvest Day event we were able to show the kids how to play some of the wooden toys from way back in the day. Some of the toys I actually had a chance to play with when I was younger, but the kids of today had no idea about those toys. It was volunteering but I was having fun seeing the smile on the kids faces. I had a chance to meet a lady who was part of the exhibit who offered to teach me to knit for free. Unfortunately I didn't get a chance to go back to the event a second day to take her up on that offer.
Listed below are the many things that I did scratch off my list during 2014. There are a few things that I did not execute. I'm planning to add these items to my vision board/list for this year. It was great to do the list. It was a source of motivation for doing the things that I wanted to do.
