Still Hooking Away


chairpad four
there is a definite dent in the worm stash now
blues are getting low in the shades I need

the red goes on and on


this face
he cannot believe I stopped brushing him

 *****
I've been rounding up wool
making stacks and bundles 
doodling up some designs on linen

planning to get the patterns on etsy next week
the wool on Facebook:
The Wool Pantry Rug hooking and Fiber Selling Group 

shooting for Wednesday and Thursday

if I ever find those Halloween chalkware pieces
I'll list those too

darn work gets in the way of everything
 *****

today I'm off but will spend most of my time with Mom
it's bingo day!

they win a quarter per game
you'd think it was high stakes the way they carry on
today it's a quarter and a prize
one of the local home health care organizations
brings in a big basket of prizes to pick from...
candy, word game books, lotion, decorations
it's a lot of fun for the residents...

I usually buy packs of gum to pass out to my "friends"
they've seen me every day for nearly 3 years now
I make sure to learn everyone's name
they know mine too

they know they can ask me for help anytime
mom doesn't mind sharing me
(most days)

Hope you can be a little ray of sunshine in your world today
so many people are aching for 
a friendly face
something I see daily in the ER
