Another Monday ~


These Mondays are coming along much too often!!!  Whodda thunk time could pass this quickly?

As I've said many times, I am my own worst enemy.  I am always meeting myself coming and going.  I am a list maker.  Every day I have at least one list of things to do and those lists have sticky note lists on them.  I am vending at one more show this year.  There was an opening in a primitive/antique show and I thought it was a great idea to get rid of more stuff.  NOT!!!  When I was looking at what I had left over it didn't seem like I had enough to fill a booth.  So I have been searching cupboards and the attic.  And yes.  I am finding lots more stuff.  Also trying to make a few things to sell.  I have been to the park several times gathering walnuts for some garlands and also making these wool snippet garlands.  Totally mindless but more time consuming than you would imagine.  Why can't I get the color right?  Neither of these pics is good and I finally gave up 😡



You have probably seen a bit of my hook-along rug progress on Saundra's blog.  Here's where I am.  Soon it will just be the hit and miss border.  I am not wild about what is hooked so far, but I will learn to like it!  I am not changing it!!!  I am thinking the entire rug may get a walnut bath when done.  


Not much else going on.  My fall yard cleanup is almost done . . . but still need to bring in some yard junk.  Lots of piddly miscellaneous things needing to be done before winter 😢.  Neither my yard boy nor my cleaning person ever show up, so I guess it's all on me . . . sigh.

Thanks so much for stopping by.
Pug hugs 😊

Great idea with the wool garland. I hope you sell sell sell.

Wow... I can't imagine having to look for stuff to get rid of. You took your purging seriously. The wool garlands are sweet but I wouldn't want to have to cut all that. Great progress on your rug but, yes, the colors are a bit "brighter/lighter" than what you usually hook with.

Love your rug. Maybe a bath would be good for it. Good luck vending again. I have been purging a few things myself. Feels good to let go of a few things. Let someone else enjoy them. Janice
