still here.....

I just couldn't do it anymore this morning

not

one

stitch

could

I

do

I think I am almost at the end of it

and I may never pick up a needle or hook again

may

never

I have "crochet wrist and elbow"-itis

and

I know a lot of you out there have it too

why can't life be like a 22 min. TV show

start to finish and

poof it's done!!

:) :) :)

Just to do something a little different

I looked in my paper file in my

"Favorites" folder

and found the snowflake link from a couple of years ago

here it is...

and made a couple of snowflakes

I don't have as much paper as I used to

I guess I used it all last year

and I don't know if I kept the ones I made

will have to look and see if they are anywhere

but these were fun to do and it got my mind off the hooking for a bit!!!

I got the sparkly candle holders out

and the other day I got some of those battery operated votive candle thingummies

I'll make a little set up and show you one of these days

it really really works....

!! :) !!

this is the Christmas begonias

with a little bling

!!!

and this is Rudolph before he hits the booze

 to get that famous red nose of his

!!!!

Of course the Christmas cactus is cooperating

NOT

it exploded the other day in all it's

neon pinkness

when I bought the bloody thing it was supposed to be

WHITE

so it's doing it's little thing over there in the kitchen window

shining brightly in the morning sun

YUK!

GEE

I hope the amaryllis

isn't going to work against me

it, too, is supposed to be white

but who knows what it will turn out to be

but who cares, just as long as it grows

I think I am coming down with something

probably got it from someone in a store

wish sick people would stay home

or it's cinnamon poisoning from that

useless craft store

I do use the complimentary wipes they supply at the door

but who knows who touched them last!!!

OK

'nuff griping

hot soup and jammie's is what I need

and

NO

MORE

HOOKING!!!!!

LOL
