Spaced off for a few days. Running around, gathering tomatoes, (they taste better than rosebuds, lol), and just being busy. So, decided to get my blog written on, again...
One of the things I did was go to our local Mennonite Fall Festival. Sadly, it's getting smaller and smaller, but I still enjoyed going. I took my Mom and Dad. They have a bluegrass group, Dad will sit and listen, Mom and I go to the different booths. As usual, I hit the yarn, and the books, and picked up a half gallon of apple cider. Let's just say, I loaded and unloaded walkers, carried out stuff in a cart, and waitressed lunch to the table. And bought a lot of yarn and several books.
I were pooped!
But like I said, it was fun. The one thing I wish I could figure out though...
We went to the quilt and donation auction. The quilts were nearly finished, (wish I had an unlimited bank account to get a few of them, absolutely works of art, and worth every penny!), but they were announcing one of the donations. I wasn't paying attention, but I swear I heard:
We are auctioning off an Amish Large Screen TV.
Ummm.
Nooo. That... No. Unless it's a large window, maybe. But that's not a thing! Never did figure out what they were auctioning. Oh, well.
The garden is just about finished, so I am going to be putting papers and mulch on it to get it ready for winter. I am getting leaves falling, so I want to get started getting the beds ready!
Christmas stuff is up at the stores, grumble. However, as a crafter, I am working on a time frame of way early myself. I just finished the first gift for someone. I have at least 3 more items to knit or crochet, I have 2 started, one I just got going yesterday. I am trying SO HARD not to get into any other projects until those are done, I have made the mistake of cutting it close to Christmas, not fun, or enjoyable!
After Christmas, I have a project that I have wanted to do for some time, and finally have the material, and hopefully skill to do it. It's a crochet beaded garland, red beads and white crochet around it. Why after Christmas?
Because I won't have pressure to finish quickly, and maybe I will have time to make it up to Santa for swearing vehemently if I screw up. Hey, it happens. ; )
Anyway, I am doing pretty well, just scattered on blogging. I will try and get all of the comments up and replied to soon as well.
(THANK YOU FOR COMMENTS!!!!)
Back to knitting for now!
