It's Growing!

My "new" rug as of this morning.




But I think I'm going to need more sheets.

Craft Overload!

So this fabulous poppy fabric arrived in the mail yesterday!!!

I'm so excited!

Now to just finish one of my many other projects, so I can get to this one. ;) (I mentioned yesterday that I hadn't had the energy to craft, which by no means should be interpreted as not having projects lined up!)



It's hard to see in this photo, but those are slightly different blues and I am trying to decide to go with the more vivid looking at the right, or the more subdued left.



What do you think?

Back to Craft

I've been seriously missing my craft time lately. What with all the house organizing I'm too exhausted in the evenings to work on any of my projects.

But I haven't been able to find an area rug for the kitchen that I like/can afford so I've started a NEW project. I'm making a rag rug.

I spent four dollars at the thrift store on old sheets, tore them into strips and rolled them up.

Here's what I've got so far.

Almost there, just a bit more practice. :)

More Chores

Chores

Hey, someone's got to "mow" the lawn!

Yes that's our new reel mower. Since we have a postage stamp size lawn we are required to care for. And I just can't see loading the kids in the van. Going to self help. Unloading the kids. Loading a mower and the kids.... You get where I'm going with this, all to mow our 10x10 ft lawn. So we bought our own mower.

Put that girl to work!

Assume the Position!

There's been a whole lot of TV watching in this house lately. It's been my crutch so I can get things unpacked. Only a small part of me really feels bad about it.  After all, walking around the house from one room to the another moving things (and all the rest) drives David into fits of screaming.

Which I'd rather not hear.

Sometimes they manage to play nicely together. :)
