Cute Crochet Granny Bag

I’ve been working on crocheting items for my mother-in-law whose company is putting on a convention in 2012 and to raise money they are having a “Country Store” and plan on selling handmade items that are being donated.  So far I’ve whipped up a couple baby blankets, several hats, and a scarf or 2.

Recent Happenings

It’s been a while since I posted.  I’ve been busy doing different things and just haven’t had time to post.  Let’s see…over Father’s day weekend we went to visit family.  On Saturday we went to a surprise 60th birthday party for Darling Hubby’s step father.  His birthday isn’t until July 6th, so with the party [...]

Memorial Day Weekend and 30 Day Shred – Day 22

We had a nice Memorial Day weekend.  It started Friday when I carried a barefoot Bug 2 blocks down the street to catch the ice cream truck so he could have his Batman Popcicle that he originally wanted on Wednesday…when I didn’t have any cash in my pocket.  Saturday we went grocery shopping and Darling [...]

Cthulhu and Play Dates

So this weekend was fun.  Bug had a play date each afternoon and he had so much fun.  Saturday morning we ran to Joann’s to get some yarn for the blanket that I’m making for Bug to take to school and then we did our grocery shopping for the next 2 weeks before doing a [...]

Wardrobe Malfunction In The Making

So I’ve been working on the Gatsby Sweater by Peter Franzi (Rav link) for Darling Hubby on and off for some time now.  I recently mentioned that just a few days ago I finished the back panel and started working on the front.  Things were going fine.  I’ve made about 12 inches of progress on [...]

Hooray!

I’m feeling so much better today!  I am so much improved from Tuesday.  I can actually swallow food and drink now without wincing in pain.  Yeah!  I can eat more than soup now, but for a lack of anything else in the house (nothing really seems appetizing) I ended up with soup again today and [...]

I Should Probably Live in a Bubble

There are days when I just wake up on the wrong side of the bed and you just should not mess with me.  Today was one of those days.  Darling Hubby just wanted to irritate me and he succeeded.  I just wanted to be left alone and on days when I’m in a bad mood [...]

Cool Beans

Getting up at 7:30 actually has it’s benefits.  Darling Hubby has been harping on me that I have a lot to get done before Christmas (meaning all the crochet/knit projects I’m undertaking) and it would be better if I got up in the morning and did something rather than lazing in bed with Bug until [...]

Not Feelin’ It Today

I think I’ve fallen into a funk today.  It’s Thursday and our game night.  However, I’m just not feeling it today.  One member isn’t coming (we knew this 2 weeks ago) and I thought we agreed to cancel, but I guess I was wrong.  Then everyone wants to make changes to the party cause things [...]

Crafty Accomplishments

Despite all the housework I have to accomplish this week, I managed to be very crafty yesterday.  I’ve been working on a pair of convertible mittens for a couple weeks that I finally finished yesterday.  I’d planned to use them as a Christmas present for someone, but I decided that since the first pair came [...]
