how was your day?
today i had pt, physical therapy should really be called pain and torture lol, but my therapist debbie is awesome. she knows exactly which muscles to move to make the problem areas better. today she actually worked on my back and while it hurt like the devil, it is not bad tonight which i thought it would be. she uses acupressure and omgosh is awesome as far as helping me. when i say owww she backs right off. i woud highly recommend her and the clinic where i am going.


well after that had to go to town to see about a few things and me being the always thinking yarn fairy that i am, decided to go to michaels(shhhhh don't tell joanns lol) and i found some awesome bargains. mode odea ticker tape ribbon yarn. normally sells for around 9.00 a skein, well today they must have seen me coming, i found alot of this wonderful yarn for only 1.00 a skein, yep you read that right. 1.00, i guess they figure will just super clearence it out so the new stuff will have a home. thought about going to handcocks which is a fabric/yarn shop here, but refrained as i was sooo good
, well i was bad, but just not at handcocks lol, i also bought from michaels 6 skeins of a lovely shade of pin/rose patons grace, i love this yarn/thread, i am going to combine it with a rose colored lurex and make a shawl. speaking of, i have been winding yarns and will soon have them posted on my site for sale.just have to get the pics uploaded. i also bought some size 3 thread as it was such a lovely color of blue,, i then left the store while i could lol more later on that lol


then i drove to joanns by the tacoma mall, and proceded to buy several yards of patriotic material, i want to make a awesome quilt, not a big one, just one big enough to sit warmly with. i know its not even summer , but i wor slow with fabrics, lol i also bought enough of the other material to help make my purse liners and also have decided i am going to try and make a patriotic purse out of the materials too, i also grabbed 2 bags they had on sale. its a summer type bag great for carrying your towel and stuff when you go to the pool or beach or if your like me, i will use it for a fast crochet project bag to carry along. i have a tendacy to carry much more than i need and its stupid cause it makes the bag to heavy for my back then i hurt and the cycle repeats itself yadayadayada. when d saw the bags she quicly grabbed the one i thought she would like and said oh for me?:-), i said well sure why not. tomorrow since its her day off i am going to have her help me finish my craft room and then that will be done so i can move into the kitchen and go through it all and get rid of what we don't eat/or use. is all good things, but if your like me,, when your shopping something jumps out at you and you think oh that sounds good, i will make this when i am not feeling like cooking(which lately has been alot as i can't stand on my leg much.) but then when i approach the family about what would they like for dinner, suddenly my quick easy meal has gotten stuffed in the back of the cupboard. see i have something to admit to, i am a huge packrat, and i mean HUGE, i so have decided that what i am going to do is the things i am doing with my craft rooms. find it all good homes, maybe make a little money on the side. yadayada, i have taken pics of several of my old pattern books that i am wanting to sell and hopefully tomorrow i will be able to list some of them. i mean these are old, like frm the early 30's i think there is even one where its more like the early 1900's, like 1909 or something like that. i also have a ton of newer old crochet books from the 70's on to present. i will be listing these here before i try and sell them on e-bay, if there is a particular book you are looking for(besides the cathederal window afghan one,) then either leave me a message here or over at the ville send me a pm or also at crochetmaniacs. i can retreive messages at all places

i even found one on irish crochet that i am debating keeping, although i was also thinking of someone who might enjoy it more than me. will have to think on that one for a while.


today started out pretty nice then got kind of ick for a while but then cleared right up, very nice. we are suppose to even have temps in the low 80's the first of the week wohoooo.course everyone will bitch and moan about how hot it is, its either to hot or to cold, never just right for some people. me, if i am cold, i grab a sweater, if i am to hot and its a really hot day. i drive my car with the ac on to the mall or where ever its cooler. lol, i wanted to get a air conditioner for here but that would also have to consider removing a window and putting the darn thing in the window, which while is nice to have the cool air, there have been several cases last year and am sure will be the same this year, of people actually breaking into ones home while yanking the ac out of the window frame. while most people are honest your going to find more than a few who are just looing for a easy targer.


tonight i visited with princess trish(oh hey girl i got something else for you hehe0 and donna and also jacqui down in oz land. today jacqui FINALLY got her package i sent well over 3 months ago, i sent her a bunch of different coffes and i suppose the custom dogs smelt the coffee and figured there were drugs there. sorry doggies, only coffee as i don't do illegl drugs ever. she said she has never seen so many different kinds and flavors of coffees, i sent her 12 different packages of coffee. she should be getting her next package too, she bought more yarn from me, and while it was a profit, it was not such a amount as to break her. i so hope she likes her next package. hehe, decided to not tell you jacqui darling lol

sad news today also, i heard on the 5 oclock news that a 2 year old toddler and fallen out of a 2nd story window and landed on her head on concrete. please keep this family in your thoughts and prayers. i personally of course donot know them, but it still made me so sad for her and them, i pray that she is alright and not permently damaged or even worse killed from this fall., if i hear any more will update you right away. thanks for caring about this child. i hope she survives quickly.

today played with my fur babies, itsy was chasing her pink string i made her around and around the yard, was so cute, then coast (the siamese) he comes strolling out yawning as if to say, hey pay attention to me, and for baby i am not sure how to describe her. think a quiet,shy,tasmanian devil, HAHAHAHAHA, she gets into her moods and is so cranky want to shush her up by putting her in her bed, course the last time i did that, i still have the scratche scars from her.

sunday is mothers day, this day is going to be hard for me, the one day i could honor my mother is really going to be hard for me this year since mom is still so much a part our lives, we won't forget her ever,


am going to try and get some pics on this blog tonight but if not then maybe tomorrow when any of you come calling lol
so i bid you all of adeu god bless and keep you ALWAYS IN HIS CARE. HUGGGGS TO YOU ALL YOUR FRIEND vicki
