My Haiku Mojo is Missing

For a long time, I would write and tweet Haikus on a daily basis.  I loved writing them, but for sometime I have lost my Haiku Mojo.  Now I go to write a Haiku and the words do not come.  I wonder why this happens that you get a mental and creative block






Here is a couple of my past Haikus:





"Another Day Done
Change is Needed and Will Be
A New life will Start"

This is one from last year, which is currently just as valid

"Christmas is coming
Everything is to be done
Panic commences"

As I have said wordsmithing is not one of my strong points, but I miss the enjoyment I had from creating these haikus.  I wish I could find my Haiku Mojo, hopefully it will soon.

Card Making

So last weekend two of my wonderful friends were married. I decided about 5 days before that I needed to make their card.

As I love doing cross-stitch so decided this would be the medium and the decision made on materials and then to start the design

I have a few sets of lettering that I love to use, so I decide the design will be their initials, the date and two rings.  

So after mapping out the design and start cross stitching...by the end of the second night I have completed the design and get ready to mount it in the card. However I show the cross stitch to my hubby at this point and the realisation dawns I have put the date as October rather than November. So I quickly get my snips and threads back out to update the piece.

Finally I mount the piece to create the card. I am so pleased with the result and that I completed it in two evenings.
