Oh what a relief it is....

...plop, plop, fizz, fizz....oh what a relief it is....


 
It's DONE!

I flipped it over so you could see all 50 colors of yarn.  Hubby and I got a chuckle, when I told him it had 50 shades of yarn, ha ha!  Now the fight is on.  Hubby wants it in the camper.  One daughter wants it.  I want it for pete's sake.

Time for a celebratory drink I think.  Tonight, that is. 

And I'm not out of unfinished projects, but the largest is complete, and before warm weather arrives.

The blanket is beautiful!!! Lots of time & work put into it. I think it's amazing. You should have first dibs.
I'm glad to see how you've been healing & getting back to your spunky & creative self.
Happy Valentine's Day. Hope you & Hubby go for a motorcycle ride.

Can hardly believe how absolutely lovely that turned out using up left over yarn! ('Course, your talented fingers had a lot to do with it!)

Susan, Hubby wants to drive to TN and gift it to Dolly Parton. I told him I am keeping it. I used yarn from my Aunt to make this one.

Saundra, thank you! The weather is a bit chilly today, but we very well may get a motorcycle ride this weekend. It will be warming up again.

Mama Pea, I used the last of some of those colors for that scarf I crocheted, so I won't be making another one too soon. I have cleared out some closet space too, ha ha! I might be making a scrap scarf with some of the smaller leftovers. Urgh. I am already talking myself into another project. I still have that baby blanket with flowers lurking.

Little Homestead, I think I will be keeping it for myself.

Debby, we are drying out from the last massive rain we got, and the snow hasn't been here much at all this winter.

Thank you GratefulPrayer. It took a year to finish, but I am thrilled with it. I have less leftover yarn sitting around too.

Sam I am, I love it. It's my second one to make, and I have been successful at using up yarn now.

Apples and Tomatoes Oh My!

  The early morning weather here has been downright chilly.  One morning it was 42 degrees.  Flower beds have been weeded.  The herb garden is next in line, but I do need to figure out what to do with all the rosemary plants I planted in the actual vegetable garden.  I have not mastered keeping them alive all winter indoors.  They will not survive the winter if left outside. Did any of my blog writing followers locate a better "blog" platform online?  Just curious if anyone is moving from blogger.

Under the Weather ~ What's Growing?

  I have not been around in blogland much, due to being under the weather after I pushed myself way to far one day.  I have to remember we cannot do it all in one day.  Thank goodness for teas and tinctures, and healing foods (and rest).  We are feeling better. As for our blogs being used for advertising on many websites, and so forth (I can't see any other reason for the source of views: howstuffworks, dominospizza, mayoclinic {not the blog readers interested in my actual blog}) the numbers continue to climb.  I have not found a way to "opt" out either.  If any of you find a new way to avoid this, blog elsewhere, find a new platform etc, please be sure to share.   If your blog has ads, you are are not going to complain, ha ha!  You are probably making a bucko-bucks with all these visitors to your blog. Okay, back to the update post . . .

16 Weeks Until Christmas

  It's not hard to believe that we are traveling closer to the winter holidays.  I'm trying to focus on enjoying every single day until then, but I am fitting in a few snippets of holiday preparing.  Christmas is my favorite holiday of the year.  It's hard to believe it's the last day of August. I have not yet gotten rid of the links to all the advertisers using my blog posts, but again, still working on it. However, my profile has gone from my blog, and while I am in settings, it is not able to add as a "gadget" to the blog.  Weird things are happening.   Google had a data breach recently as well, so gmail users were advised to change passwords.  Not sure what else is going on, but just in case you are wondering why my "profile" is not on my blog any longer.   Okay, back to the Christmas countdown post . . .
