I follow you on Google Reader, and as you can tell I get wayyyyy behind on reading.<br /><br />I volunteer as a literacy tutor, when they find me students. How do you find volunteering opportunities?<br /><br />I've mostly stopped asking people to go do things (esp my BFF) because they're always "too busy". Pffttt! I need new friends, too. I figured out years ago that if I want to go/do/see anything I may as well plan on going alone, otherwise I'd never be doing anything. LOL And hey, I'm OK with that!Mearihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18080474930910254503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12317509.post-53549680387836016342011-06-23T11:59:56.536-07:002011-06-23T11:59:56.536-07:00Well done on the volunteering, who would have thou...Well done on the volunteering, who would have thought it would involve yarn!!Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13863899802782756191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12317509.post-72711212724586151022011-06-22T05:40:47.376-07:002011-06-22T05:40:47.376-07:00Well I love your randoms and your tales of acupunc...Well I love your randoms and your tales of acupuncture:)<br /><br />Well done on the volunteering.<br /><br />I hope your Dad's surgery goes well.<br /><br />I hate it when you find you haven't measured properly!Sallyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08883231391662433334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12317509.post-4208395951676902522011-06-21T19:11:21.390-07:002011-06-21T19:11:21.390-07:00Enjoyed your post very much - it felt kind of like...Enjoyed your post very much - it felt kind of like sitting down together for a cup of coffee.

Been there, done that, got the t-shirt!! :P<br /><br />I have had that happen numerous times with followers. Like Valerie said, you can't control everything. I can only blog about what I'm doing, and if I get more people--I love it. If I lose some people--there's nothing I can do other than what I'm doing. I'm being me, so--?? I come to your blog for the friendship and to see what's going on in your life. If you share stitching pics, great. If not, that's fine, too! <br /><br />Prayers and good thoughts being said for your dad.Siobhánhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14664728276490470180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12317509.post-10269590678871510612011-06-19T18:18:59.004-07:002011-06-19T18:18:59.004-07:00At least you figured out what count it was fairly ...At least you figured out what count it was fairly quickly.

I can only imagine what you were feeling once you realized you were stitching on 32ct!! Don't feel bad, I have done the same thing more than once!<br /><br />Don't worry about losing followers...I used to get upset if my followers number went south. Then I realized that I cannot control everything (unfortunately!) and I am not going to lose sleep over number. 'Cause if you think about it, we are stressing about people WE DON'T EVEN KNOW! I like to think that the people who stop following are the ones who hit the delete button accidentally...at least that is what I tell myself!<br /><br />I hope the acupuncture continues to be a good experience.

My blog isn't devoted to any one thing so maybe that is one of the reasons?<br /><br />I read your post below about being single forever. Thankfully that guy showed his true colors up front.

I've done that and still managed with a tiny border but like Gabi said, you can add fabric to it for framing etc.<br />My mom had her cataracts removed a couple of years ago at 75, and she came thru with flying colours, the drops are the only pain in the A$$ afterwards, but they aren't painful. So I know your dad's going to do great with is surgery as well.

It's up to you doll but you have to be happy with it. Re followers... It happens to me too but I have had to delete a load of people on mine as I had reached my 300 limit so I needed to make room for more. I only chose people who never ever comment or folks that hadn't posted in months - not you!! Don't get too hung up about it.
