I saw this on a good friend's blog and borrowed it ... it fits the mood I am in today.I AM: very introverted.I WANT: to own my own home one day.I WISH: I weren't afraid all the time.I HATE: abusers who blame their victims.I MISS: being happy and having fun.I FEAR: losing myself.I HEAR: the song stuck in my head.I WONDER: if I will ever find true love.I REGRET: not studying harder in school.I AM NOT: confident in myself.I DANCE: only when I am alone.I SING: where no one can hear me.I CRY: very rarely, I don't remember how.I AM NOT ALWAYS: in a good mood.I MAKE WITH MY HANDS: art of all forms.I WRITE: bad poetry.I CONFUSE: myself sometimes.I NEED: a real vacation.I SHOULD: lose some weight.I START: my day with coffee.I FINISH: what I start.I TAG: you. I just walked across the street to get myself a raspberry mocha frap from the Starbuck's. My girlfriend was sitting here with my kids so that I could get out of the house alone for once LOL .. as I was coming up the front walk, I went to step over some of the kids' toys on the porch stairs, and missed the top step. I fell forward, spilled my frap and twisted my ankle ... Guess that means I'll have to sit down for a few days, rest my ankle and crochet I started the Seraphina shawl today in Homespun Gothic with an L hook .. I'm up to row 7 ... I'll post photo's later. I'm loving this pattern!! I was going to post the link to the shawl pattern, but when I click the link I have saved .. I just get a blank page. If the page starts working again ... I'll link you to her site.Okay, I'm off to rest and crochet ... later.
Blah! Its Friday morning ... and naturally, we wake up to gray skies and chilly weather. Such a disappointment after the past three days of sunshine and 80 degree temperatures >sigh<> Question ... has anyone used the thread hooks with the large handles? I am having problems doing threadwork for any length of time, as my hands and fingers beging to ache. I was wondering if the larger handled thread hooks were comfortable to use. Okay .. time to put the ribs and bbq sauce in the crockpot, get my shower and head out to the library, since I didn't go yesterday. Have a wonderful crochet day!
I've been working on a shrug for my older daughter's birthday at the end of the month .. her's is being crocheted with Red Heart Super Saver in Watercolor .. I love the colors in this yarn! It is coming out very pretty .. I'm just trying to figure out which lace pattern to use on her's, as I don't want the pattern of the lace to be overwhelmed by the multi colors in the yarn. Thankfully I have until the end of the month to try different lace patterns until I find the right one.
Went to the mailbox today and found the two books I won on Ebay waiting for me!! The Ultimate Sourcebook of Knitting and Crochet Stitches, and The Knitter's Bible! I'm so excited, I love these books and now I OWN them .. I don't have to borrow them from the library anymore!! Yay Me ! LOL
Okay ... the little one is down for her nap ... its time for me to go clean the living room up , take my shower and sit and crochet till the older kids come home from school. Take care and happy crocheting!
