Double posting for my weekly update, once again just the MM one. I didn't get too much done this week, since I spent two days laid out with a killer sinus headache.

And this isn't a video game thing, but I'm super proud. My son, out of nowhere in his entire 12 years, suddenly asked me "When can I learn to cross stitch?", having shown no interest in crafty stuff beforehand. So he's started a Dimensions Learn-A-Craft kit with my help, and here's his first effort.

He's autistic, and has issues with fine motor control. He also gets frustrated easily, so I'm quite happy he seems to be enjoying it so much.

Just checking in on my lack of updates. Combining the first week of school, and my having been rather sick, I didn't get much of anything done this week. I'll try to have something substantial for this next one.

Oh man, your megaman project looks super awesome! Although, just looking at it makes my eyes strain. The stitches are so small! My eyes aren't so terrible, but I don't think my eyes would survive a project that small. :D
