i have a bug
its overwhelming
insatiable...hmmmm...not sure that is the best word for this post---but its okay
i am in the craftiest of moods....the crafting bug
i also have a weakness
i dont finish
nope, not a finisher...this is why i dont sew---because my kids would have ended up walking around in clothes with no hems---no buttons----zippers? forgettaboutit.....
i need one week of nuthin---but who is kidding who---all i'll do is start
so---right now---i'm blogging----with facebook open (duh)----off to my left i have a knitting loom with yellow and white yarn---about 3 minutes away from finishing a newborn baby hat-on the cardtable in the front room i have my cricut (that even sounds like a bug!) up and have finished one project for it---have another that needs to get done....next to me is a bunch of raffia to make flowers with another loom type thing---i've got about 8 flowers done---but no pin or alligator clips on them yet----have 3 baby hats done that need matching booties---2 have the booties done---just not the final stitching----i have 3 pairs of booties that are mid-stream-----
i made napkin rings out of wire and beads---turned out really cute---but now i have 6 more ` staring at me---pleading for a cute napkin ring
i should be taking pictures of all of this---i hate blogging without pictures---my phone is almost dead---but it doesnt take very good pictures---i hate my blackberry...but taking pictures would infer that i was going to finish this blog correctly----ha...see? i cant even finish an emoticonism!
i have 162++ cooking magazines waiting to be pulled apart (a bit of an exaggeration---but not alot)...and then try out the recipes i rip outthere are 3 baby hats (like you get from the hospital) waiting to have a cute edging put on.
my grandmother's 50 yr old hot pink chaise lounge is in my front room---waiting for me to find someone who knows how to reupholster---notice i didnt say that i would reupholster it---just have to find someone to pay to do it...
i have 2 grandbabies due in 10-12 weeks---so i need to do 2 blanketsi have a sock machine screaming at me to make socks.
....screaming so loud that i cant hear the laminator whining as it waits to laminate the church pictures my kids were supposed to get for christmas.
and i'm doing 3 Sound of Music shows this weekend---but when i'm not onstage---i'm crocheting baby booties or flowers for headbands...
laundry
dishes
bed made
none done...well---laundry is done---but people are still wearing clothes! and the dishwasher is full of clean dishes---but yes---we continue to eat AND USE DISHES....and i plan on sleeping tonight...so bed made---yeah---not gonna happen.
jack of all trades---master of none...in fact....i'm surprised that i've even finished this po
