Madam,
moi,
got into one of her moods and went completely hog wild over something
she had to have
and she had to have it
NOW
she's like that you know
you remember this from yesterday
NOW
she's like that you know
you remember this from yesterday
a clue as to the madness that was brewing
she needed to learn how to knit in the round and found something called
the magic loop
so off she went on the
WWW
and found videos that explained and showed how to do this mysterious thing
and it wasn't as hard to do as she thought
so she did what she had to
and ended up with this
looked like Caspar the ghost
said the husband who just happened to be passing by the door of the
ROTL
no
said she
it's a snow person
on the warmest day yet and at the beginning of a new season
she makes a "snowperson"
flash forward a few hours
and this started to take shape
then she remembered she had seen the
over on
Flickr
so completely
overcome by
the madness
of the idea
the inspiration
and the
perfect example
she worked her little fingers to the bone
and this appeared from
her hands
when she came up for air
and went to get
sustenance
in the form of a cheese sandwich and some apple juice
this is what she saw on her return
to
ROTL
the chaos from inspiration
and this is who
arrived
after all the bits and pieces came together
hello
sweet thing
with your Tunisian cape let
and tiny heart button
your fair isle hat
and for those of you who were
in on the "bee lost in the ash from the volcano in Iceland"
thing last year
the smallest thing I ever made
now has a little friend to spend time with now
so
while the world is in turmoil
and blood flows in the streets again
and
as some twit of a politician said yesterday
it looks like Cairo
in Wisconsin
as he looked out on the sea of
teachers fighting him for their jobs
were democracy reigns in the minds of those who impose their stupid ideas on others
but don't listen to the people in the streets
and who knows what else
I spent time
laughing and giggling like a two year old
making a tiny little
snowperson
because I couldn't live a minute longer without one
and her name
????
"sam"antha
a tiny "sam"pler
of some of the things I have learnt lately
she hopes you have a good morning/ day/afternoon/evening/night
hopefully sanity will reign once more in the
ROTL
and the desk will be returned to some semblance of order
yeah...in your dreams
ta ta for now
lovely readers of this ridiculousness
see you next time
I hope
:}
Just the sweetest ever!
