Our House [Archive 2]

You have no reason to be jealous. I should be jealous. You are having gorgeous weather while we are freezing. It has only been in the 50's & with the rain it only made it feel colder. Our nights are in the 30's.

-----------

gorgeous is a matter of perspective. We've had hot and sunny for so long, that cold and rainy would be very welcome right about now!

Cara all i can say is WOW!!!!!

 

I love the center piece it is the most precious thing I have ever seen. You are a very talented lady.

[Aussie]

Cara your centrepiece is fantastic. If you hadnt told us I dont think I would have guessed that they were socks. What a great idea.

[QueenOfCrochet]

Cara~Everything looks fantastic, they are so lucky to have you. I love the centerpiece, the sock roses are so cute. Great job!

[judianne]

Adorable centerpiece, Cara! And the booties as favors - a great idea:clap

 

 

Nitey nite to you and anyone else still awake...

[Skysmom]

Hi ladies. We had a long, wonderful day at DD's and her Hubby's...and I am so sore I may not be able to get out of bed in the a.m.

 

Cara, you could easily be a party consultant. Everything is adorable and so creative. I love all of your ideas and you've put so much thought and work into each item.

 

Renee - I heard on the weather this evening that we have a chance of rain tomorrow night and Monday.

Good Morning Ladies.

 

How is everyone in the Happy House, HAPPY??

 

Gimme about 15 more minute worth of caffeine consumption and I'll be very happy

Hi Cara, lovely ideas and those are cute. The shower is going to be a success.

Cara, you could easily be a party consultant.

 

Oh I don't think I have the strength My MIL was a party planner and that poor woman was always on the go. But that's where I learned everything I know

[Skysmom]

Good Morning, I think. We had another middle of the night call from MIL's caretaker and DH took her to the ER...she's fine, but we can't take a chance when she feels bad. If he's out of town, we just call 911. It may be naptime for both of us later.

 

I really need some time with my yarn and hook today. Laundry, desk, then some crochet time. I hope everyone has a great day/evening.

Gimme about 15 more minute worth of caffeine consumption and I'll be very happy

 

That's what I need, Cara...my diet Coke.

[Misa]

Aww Mary what a rough night y'all had I sure hope MIL feels better real soon

Renee - I heard on the weather this evening that we have a chance of rain tomorrow night and Monday.

--------

Mary, I saw that too, but it'll still be mid to upper 80s!

 

I'm going to Baltimore on Tuesday for the week, and at least it'll be a little cooler (50s at night, upper 70s during the day).

 

I want rainy and 50!

[Misa]

 

I want rainy and 50!

 

Call me crazy but I think that's the perfect weather We should have that within a month with luck

[QueenOfCrochet]

I'll trade ya'll. You can have the New York weather & i'll take the Texas weather.

[QueenOfCrochet]

Mary~Take care & relax. I'm glad your MIL is okay.

[QueenOfCrochet]

Here are some progress pics. of my fall ghan. The indoor pic. shows better colors. I believe i'm past the 1/2 way mark or atleast right on it.

Here is a pillow & a gameboy/game holder that my oldest twin son made. I only did the sewing & velcro.

 

 

[judianne]

Awesome pics, Tabby!! Maybe next year I'll get to do a Fall ghan!

 

You're a wise lady. Raising boys to do things that used to be thought off as "women's work", too, is great. I did that with my 32 YO and he's very self-sufficient.

[Aussie]

Mary Im sorry you had a rough night, Im glad your MIL is ok.

 

Tabby your fall ghan looks fabulous. You have certainly done a lot of work on it.

 

I have nearly finished the second row of white squares. It now measures 160cmX200cm.

[Misa]

Tabby - Great work!! Your fall ghan looks fabulous! And good for DS making his on game cozy! Okay you can have the Texas weather and the $500 electric bill I just got that goes with it Lower electric bills. This is why I'm a big fan of 50 degrees and dreary

 

Wendy - Excellent progress!! Just keep telling yourself how gorgeous it'll be when it's all done

 

Didn't get far on a baby blanket today. Changed my mind on the stitch three times Finally decided and then fell asleep...just now waking up Well, now I won't sleep half the night but at least I'll have a baby blanket to keep me entertained

Tabby, your Fall Ghan looks wonderful. I think it's fun to see the picture come to life. That is great work by your son!

[Skysmom]

Wendy, you're almost there on the Amish...good for you!

 

Cara - What stitch and color did you decide on for the baby ghan? Can't wait to see it.

 

I have 4 rows connected on the 4th (7x7 squares) block of the Fall Ghan. Moving kind of slow today after the yard work yesterday and almost no sleep last night...I hope I can get some more done tonight.
