Update: Shooting Gallery - The Zombie Apocalypse

Just a quick update to let everyone know that the show "Shooting Gallery" on the Outdoor Channel will be featuring a zombie themed show on March 23rd. Check it out to see my husband Jesse as the "head zombie."

Zombie watch!!

This morning I looked outside my window to find this:

I have acquired scientific proof that zombies retain certain skills they had when they were alive even after death. This zombie, let's call him Fred, was scraping the windows of an old Chevy Blazer this chilly morning.
Unfortunately, he saw me and started walking towards me.

He almost had me, but I was able to shut my door just in the nick of time.

Be careful out there! There could be more of them anywhere!
Anyway, I have a few small updates today but should be able to post more details later.
Thank you! More updates to come.
Watch out for zombies!
XOXO Cori

Commission two: status - complete + turtles

Update!
Commission two: status - complete
My friend Tim has a skeleton collection, so he asked me to crochet one for him.

I hope you like him, Tim!
I am really happy with how he turned out and kind of want to make one for myself, and perhaps for the Etsy store???
I also realized that we have a small skeleton collection that I wasn't even trying for. We just like them apparently. I will take pictures of them soon.
I have been doing projects on the side because I have adult crafty ADD and can't just work on one project at a time, so I made turtles.

I got the patterns from this book so unfortunately I can't sell them (sorry everyone who asked if they could buy one) but I would like to develop my own turtle patterns so I can sell them.

I love twertles


I am currently working on pot holders and should probably work on some more zombies (people and animals) for a potential viewing I have coming up that I hope to get more information on very soon.
Jesse introduced me to a game called Alchemy on our smart phones. You start out with the four basic elements (earth, air, fire, water) and combine them to make more elements. For example, earth combined with water makes swamp. Fire and air makes energy. Energy and swamp makes life, etc. There are apparently 360 total elements possible in the game. Jess and I are having a contest to see who can get the most elements by Saturday. We haven't agreed on what the winner gets yet (probably something like the loser has to do the dishes), but we're having fun! The game is pretty addicting and I've already made a bicycle, a zombie, Mario and Santa Claus.
I am also hoping so very much for a blizzard so I can have a damn snow day and have no excuse but to work on projects. Sorry people, I don't care. I want my damn snow day full of yarn, hot chocolate, snugly animals and movies. Sounds wonderful.
