A choice

Catherine M. OBrien. Crafts & Sewing. August 14, 2012. The person who wrote this is a member of my family of choice, and while I knew that this was a part of her history, I wasn’t cognizant of just how emotionally draining the concept of “domestic abuse” is. I’ve never been physically abused by a man, although one did hit me once. Once. I am lucky. I hope that anyone who reads this and sees herself (or himself! In it finds the strength to find help. Read the rest…. Basics and FAQs of western witchcraft.

Back to Weight Watchers

Catherine M. OBrien. Crafts & Sewing. Back to Weight Watchers. December 31, 2012. I rejoined Weight Watchers about a week ago, the online version this time, and I’m pretty glad I did. the last time I did WW was 7 years ago. I lost over 115 lbs, and I felt great, but I got too skinny and WW still wanted me to lose more. I couldn’t. I got depressed and gave up. Today is the last day of 2012. Better than 2011 for me, but I am ready to let it go. 2013 should be amazing. I’m turning 40 (30),...Small Notebook ...

How to Succeed in Business (With Trying, but Not Too Hard)
http://catherinemobrien.com/business/how-to-succeed-in-business-with-trying-but-not-too-hard
Catherine M. OBrien. Crafts & Sewing. How to Succeed in Business (With Trying, but Not Too Hard). February 29, 2012. I received another “reverse cold call” today — a call from a potential client who got my name from someone and is interested in working with me. Someone asked how do I do it. Positive attitude has something to do with it, but these are the things I’ve noticed that seem to help me manifest work…sometimes more than I can handle. Step one: get a reputation. Step Four: share the wealth. Since ...

The bag o’ bags
http://catherinemobrien.com/crafts_sewing/upcycle/the-bag-o-bags
Catherine M. OBrien. Crafts & Sewing. The bag o’ bags. January 25, 2012. Oh my crochet skills are weak! Towards the end of the project I was literally scrounging around the house looking for two more plastic bags! Something I was swimming in when I started. If you are looking to upcycle a huge stash of bags in a somewhat useful way, this is a great project. All you need is:. A bunch of plastic “t-shirt” bags. Scissors (or cut with a straightedge and a rotary cutter, like I did). A large crochet needle.

Upcycle
http://catherinemobrien.com/category/crafts_sewing/upcycle
Catherine M. OBrien. Crafts & Sewing. January 29, 2012. Kind of simple and boring, so I put a flower clip on it. Because I didnt have a bird. I’ve also discovered that Kitteh is very much a “ball of yarn” kind of kitteh. I will have to get photos of that as it is quite amusing. I know not to let her around the yarn unattended, though, and keep my projects in a box when I’m not around. I know too many people who have spent thousands getting yarn cut out of cat bellies.
