It's a Crafty Blog

I haven't forgotten that this is suppose to be my crafty place. Well, maybe I did forget....

But I've created a new space for all the family fun/drama. If you dare, you can check it out here. As of this very moment it is empty though.

I have been being crafty, and to prove it to you I am prepared with proof. I have started crocheting again and can't believe that I ever stopped. Balancing this with Scrap booking will be my next challenge to navigate.


As promised here is the proof. It's a sampler 'ghan from an Easy book I bought for Grammy after she moved in. In the process of trying to talk her into giving it another go, I ended up starting one of my own, and she has given up. Ah well. At least I am rewarded with the re interest on my part.

Oye

Today I have learned a serious lesson in humility. I am so embarrassed. She was a bit on the bitch side though.....quite a bit actually.

But Alas, someone had to whip my ass into shape. Mine as well have been a stranger Lady that I can hate instead of a friend or family member.

Fly Lady here I come. Again.

Just a few hints

Here are some helpful hints for getting along with me. They are quite simple I think, but some have issues.....no names here.....

Do not Nag me. If I tell you I will, I will. I am exactly like my son is. Tell me the plan and then leave ample time available and do not rush me. DO NOT RUSH, PUSH, OR DRIVE ME BONKERS. These things will only serve to delay whatever it is you think you need. It's just how I'm wired.

I need to plan things, P.L.A.N. I have 3 calendars going at the same time. I need my calendars. Do not spring last minute things on me unless I have told you I am bored. Please. Specifically regarding travel arrangements.... I am a cheap skate. Do not make me wait for a fly date until prices for airfare are through the roof. I will decide to drive, and you will have to wait on me. I need a date, like tomorrow, so that I can have a little pricing party and figure out all the details. This is just how I am wired.

If you board you horse here on my property and your horse busts through a gate and gorges out on 3 bales of hay they broke open don't give me attitude for asking for help cleaning it up. Just don't. I don't care that you have out of town family here to visit. They will be here 12 days. Come and help me clean it up. AND, for the love of GAWD, if we make arrangements on when we will clean it up do NOT show up when you know I will not be here and do it all yourself the wrong way. This is my place, my hay layout, my horses that you double fed while you were here......Keep your word, call and make sure I am here first. You put a HUGE gaping hole in my day.

Lastly. Beware of Churches that say "adventure" in the title. Holy crap, that was an adventure and I've had my fill!

Thanks for the vent!!
