Yarn Along

 
 
Are you serious?  There is a link up for yarn crafts and reading?  Oh my word!!! Three of my passions (looming, reading, and blogging) rolled into one.  I am so excited.  Link up with Small Things with your yarn and reading projects as well. 
 
So here goes...this is what I have working on. 
 


 
I love to make scarves and this is a beautiful grey and white one to match my winter jacket.  I have made several others in different colors.  This one may be my favorite so far.  I read on my Kindle now mostly and am currently reading Stressed Less Living by Tracie Miles.  I would highly recommend this book and feel it was written just for me. 
 
I make my scarves using looms like the ones pictured below.  I purchased mine at Walmart.  The round ones are used to make hats, etc.  I love that it is a hobby that I can start and stop and not have to finish all at once.  I like to loom while watching television with the family.  I can't wait to post some of my other creations and get ideas from everyone else and hear what you are reading :)

What's going on around here....

  I am joining up with The Simple Woman's Blog to bring you my weekly day book.  Link up and share yours and read the other links....          For today...February 2nd (Groundhog's Day) 6 more weeks of Winter was the prediction.   Outside my window....Snow.  We got enough to cover everything, but not the storm that was predicted.  I can handle this.  I will admit, snow is beautiful the first day before it gets slushy and dirty.       I am thinking...how nice to have the day off.  Sometimes using a vacation day to hang out around the house is worth it.   I am thankful and in gratitude for... an older daughter who is responsible and can run the house and the family well when left in charge for a few days.   I am wearing...my pajama pants and an Oklahoma Sooners hoodie, this may be what I stay in all day long :)   I am wondering....if raising teenagers will tur...

Friday's Fav Five

Today I am joining it with a new link up for me.  It is hosted by  Living to Tell the Story .   My Friday Fav Five list goes something like this... 1. My three older girls were still up watching television together when I went to bed last night.  My room is right next to the living room so I could hear their conversations.  Although I wasn't ease dropping, I did start to listen.  They were talking about casual and personal things.  I realized that they are all growing up and their conversations with each other are growing as well.  It was like listening to a group of 3 women talking over coffee.  My heart wanted to burst and I may have teared up or actually cried..... maybe. I am so thankful for this wonderful bond they will have with each other for the rest of their lives. 2.  I am just thankful it is Friday.... we have had snow and strep throat at our house this week.  I am ready to shut the books on this we...
