the thirteenth journal ends.
…wow. it still amazes me. this journaling habit. 62 months of my life. documented in 13 journals.
the last page is always me today. a snapshot of what I’m about right now. (and what my hair looks like – funny how much that’s changed in the last five years!)

| the end of journal #13 |
with journal #6 I started tying a piece of yarn from each finished knitting project to the moleskine band

with journal #7 I started listing those finished projects inside the front cover. and with journal #13, I added the yardage to that knitting record.
since early october, I’ve completed 21 projects and knit just over 9,000 yards of yarn. which is more than FIVE miles. whoa. (no wonder I haven’t had much time for anything else!) I haven’t knit a sweater since november when I finished vodka gimlet. and ten of those projects were for others.
I hope journal #14 tells a similar story about knitting for others. but maybe not knitting quite so much. and definitely getting back to sweaters. we’ll see.

When the journals begin piling up . . . and you can see the changes in your life right there. . . recorded in their pages. . . that's when you really KNOW the power of journaling! Welcome 14! (With many, many more!)
