last Friday of 2012...

one could almost say good riddance

BUT

along with so many horrible things

there were so many wonderful things too

so we'll call it even 

and hope wonderful wins out from now on

I continued to make doilies..

well I have finished now but have made a couple more..

I tried using a bigger hook the other day

and after the small steel ones

 it felt like I was hooking with tree trunks!!!

so I'll have to take a hooking break and get the thin feel out of my fingers!!!

I found this one at the bottom of a drawer

all bunched and crumpled

so I blocked it

because I can

!!!!

and that is an old photo album from Egypt

that we've had forever

it's older than me so 

it's

really really reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeealy

OLD

maybe one day I'll show what's inside

if there is anything left!!!

we haven't had this view for a while so maybe it won't be too boring to see it again

if you look in the  middle there

you will see a baffle headed duck

swimming with the Canada Geese

if I had a zoom it would have been so fabulous

there were others but they were all under the water

but in this you can see a bit more clearly what they look like

sort of

the sparkles were beginning to appear too

but with these overhead they weren't quite as bright as they get

big storm on it's way ...again

big storm...

ooffaa!!!

here you can see a few more baffles as they swam off 

with a lighted wake to their rears

I couldn't help but make

putt putt noises

and then I got very very sad

husband handed me an envelope and said

hmmm...seeds from Norge

I know only one in Norway...

so I opened it and this is what I found

smashed to a million pieces

I'm so sorry S

Her Majesty would not be smiling if she knew

I'm not smiling either

but it is the thought that counts it really is

and it smells nice!!!!!

(I hope mine made it in better shape)

Takk fyrir S
