October flew with Halloween preparations, followed by preparation for company, followed by the company, followed by..... a really bad cold. Or something. After a week+ of being sick I finally gave in and went to the doctor and now I am slowly improving. Ack.
In my mind (okay, on Pinterest*) I am still actively saving project ideas; for Christmas decorating, for inside my house and for my outside spaces. And in my I-have-zero-energy-down-time I've been trying to teach myself to knit. Because, well, so many cute knit (knitted?) items around now! And let's be honest: I'm too cheap to buy them. (Plus -- having something to keep my hands busy during family gatherings will keep my hands out of the snack bowl...)
I so want this for Winter dog walking -- every single time I look at it I just laugh!
You can order it online, with interchangeable mustaches -- I kid you not.
So, not many posts lately, but I hope to have some for you soon; thanks for hanging with me. This weekend I am going to start building a little something for my holiday decor; and maybe some photos will come out of those projects. I did get my alley mulch spread out, but neglected to snap a photo... it's looking much better! I'll try to remember to snap one this weekend. But the leaves! Oh, the leaves! Knee deep in my yard... front and back.
I'm also going to help a friend paint something fun on the risers on her stairs (before her Thanksgiving company descends upon her!) don my elf costume and be a Santa's helper, dig up flower bulbs at a friend's house, and help another friend with some Thanksgiving preparations. A quiet weekend has become full of fun things. I hope to get good sleep in between that stuff, and continue to recover.
Have a great weekend!
