That would leave me with little to sell today. Good morning, CPA! *sets out coffee, teas, juices, apples, brownies, and Belgian waffles with strawberries and whipped cream* The rain has stopped and it's bright and sunny again.

Posted November 20, 2022 Good morning, CPA! It is very cold and windy this morning. Anything that is not tied down is blowing around out there! 1 hour ago, Lagie said: Though... my tablemate says she sold them all? After I left... That would leave me with little to sell today. But that's a good thing. Right? @AsymDoll13 I hope you can figure out what you are doing wrong that makes your elbow hurt when you are working on your snowman. Share this post Link to post

And I still have bracelets and a few pompom mice. *battens purplehaze down* I picked up my origami stuff when I went home but forgot the boxes to pack finished strings in. This isn't a good house for origami. Not enough open surfaces. Share this post Link to post

Posted November 20, 2022 Guys! I noticed something pretty cool last night. I started that snowman thing, right? Spoiler The yellow blanket I started over a year ago, and the grey one I started last night. It looks so good! Look at that practice and finally figuring out how to keep my tension proper. I'm so pleased by it! ^^ Share this post Link to post

Should settle by Saturday lol Love ya'll, be safe and have a great day! this is the beginning of the crazy time of the year, so yeah, makes sense. so, except for lunch (and now i'm making dinner), and a call to my mom, i sat and watched season 4 of Manifest all day. i have two episodes left, and i'll be finishing that during and after dinner. to be fair, hubby has been watching football most of the day too, so... edit: also i AM working on my crochet cable blanket that has taken me far longer than any other blanket - it does NOT take me almost 5 years to make a blanket. to be fair, however, first i wasn't sure how much yarn i'd need, and then the store i got the yarn from was going out of business (so i'm pretty sure i have enough yarn!) and as it got bigger, it just wasn't a 'travel' project anymore, and then i'd have something else to make, so the blanket would get set aside. and then the moving planning, and the summer, so now i've finally gotten back to it. i only have three more repeats of the cable pattern, and then i'm DONE!

Posted November 21, 2022 Good evening! A successful Jollification was held, marred only at the end by an idjit parked in front of the gate I needed to get out of. I sold the majority of my crane strings, all but four mice, and 61 bracelets each day. 2 hours ago, purplehaze said: Although the gusts of wind were trying to push my car around! Scary stuff!
