#9 Paper

This one was tough--I have SO MUCH paper!  First I thought paper piecing--I am working on have a temporarily abandoned project some where (but I couldn't find it in the 3 minutes I allotted myself), so I thought--12x12 scrapbook paper!  I have tons, but it didn't photograph well, hiding in the folders.  So then I spotted this:

I know, I'll have to find a better method of storing my pantographs--pawing through them isn't the best way, but I have other fish to fry.  So there they sit.... (until this drives me nuts!)

#8 "T"

Well, since I'm so late, how about three things that begin with the letter "T" in one photo? Too bad, that's the way it goes!

Here are tools, toys for men and a truck all in the Man Cave.

Photo #7 " Street"

Well, the only street I saw was this today--Bonnie Hunter's Easy Street mystery.  Stuck around the house today and worked on this and did some House Blessing (I'm trying to think positively about cleaning!)

Just have 16 more blocks to go and I can put them up on the design wall!!!

Photo #6 "Mine"

This one had me wanting to do something different.  I can't find my pictures of the gold mine (they were taken before digital came into my sphere...no wonder they aren't on my computer..duh!!)  but I did come across this one for Daily vacation Bible school we made at church.  Use your imagination!

Photo #5

Movement

This is the motion I've done 8 times so far today--'nuf said!!

#4 A View from Here

All the Christmas decorations are down and packed, in the garage waiting to be carried out to their designated places.  Tree was hauled out and I had the task of vaccuuming.  Thus my view.

Photo Day 3

I'm with you, Kay...I was trying to think outside the box, but thinking wasn't high on my priority list today!  So here is an obvious heart!  it was part of the gifts in an apron swap  (my favorite color is green in case no one noticed!)

Something new

This came in the mail today:  my new popcorn popper!!

(Don't ask me why it is standing on its handle!!)

New Year's Day

was spent like this:

Bonnie Hunter's mystery is gorgeous!
and laundry, not so much,  but someone's gotta do it.

This will also be my photo a day: today's prompt is "Today"
(I think I overused that word)
 Kay got me started on this, we shall see how far I go!

Progress

is being made.  I'm caught up on Bonnie Hunter's mystery Easy Street, the tree is up and the baking is done. I'm NOT doing any more!  Gifts are bought, and half of them are at their destinations.  Good enough!  Now DH wants to play Wii golf!

Twisted Tulips

DH bought me these gorgeous red tulips--well, they were gorgeous....now they're twisted and I think I like them better now!  (And that may be 'cuz I'm twisted!)

Friday Fun

After all that whining, guess what I did all day?!?  Clue # 3 is almost done--just have to do about 2/3 of the last block--adding the large turquoise half square triangle, pressing and trimming them.  It's too cold to be out splitting wood, and I can procrastinate the rest with the best of them!!  I am loving this mystery!!  So tomorrow they should be done, and them I MUST (read should!) do something Christmasy.

Unprecedented and Unheard of!!

I am caught up with Bonnie Hunter's mystery and awaiting clue # 3!  However, DH comes home tonight and we have much to do:  I haven't even THOUGHT about Christmas decorating (well, maybe a spark flew in and right back out of my brain), and we are almost out of split wood (did you see how cold it's been here??? 20 below!!) Christmas baking, shopping, cards to be addressed and mailed.  Did you notice how I've made excuses for not keeping up on the mystery?!?  Am I setting myself up for failure? or blaming DH.  Hmmm, I think I'll go with that one----he's used to it and I don't want him to feel neglected!

Wordless Wednesday

Monday threads

are happening on my dining room table--I am actually doing Bonnie Hunter's new mystery, Easy Street.  I usually wait til it's revealed, gather the fabric, print the pattern, and relegate it the the herd of swine.  But this time the colors appealed and I bit the bullet!!

I have one more side to bind on a baby quilt and Christmas baking to do, and.....
