[NFB-Krafters-Korner] The List Is Quiet

Thu Dec 22 17:59:48 UTC 2022

I hear you, Berniece. Congratulations! Getting off the couch is a challenge. Sometimes my legs don’t like me and I almost fall over. My husband hast to basically push me off the couch. Oh well, and as far as falling on the snow… Falling backwards is probably safer. There’s plenty of padding behind. Lol, I just kind of sit there until I’ve got my bearings again. I hate ice! We plan to not go outside until Monday, except for Christmas Eve service. We have temperatures plummeting here in Wisconsin, snow falling, and this weekend will have blizzard conditions. 

Keep safe and have a wonderful Christmas everybody! While I am trapped in the house I’ll be needing my fourth scarf. Test driving my skills out on family first before I make some thing for someone I don’t know. My mom likes orange, so I got this really neat color from Hobby lobby called orange spice and it’s the beat beat. Oh goodness stuff from Hobby lobby the yarn bee quick knitting, chunky.

If you fall outside you don't have furniture to hold onto so it's good to find other methods even if they are not that graceful (smile).

I have too many unfinished projects around here and it seems overwhelming :-) I guess that means I’m a true crafter :-) I am working on the wonderful ridge scarf that you taught Shelly. I am at 26 inches right now. So Bernice, you are ahead of me.

This makes 38 pounds since last February. I'm not sure why, but I'll take it. Also, I'm the only person I know of that looses weight on a cruise. I love cruises. I figure it is because food is available 24/7, so I only have to eat a little each time. There is also a lot of walking on a cruise.

> The list is really quiet. Does that mean you are all crafting? Do you have all your Christmas gifts made or are you still hard at work? Unlike me maybe your out side enjoying some nice weather. I've gotten a lot of crafting done the last few days. Our temps are unbelievable cold, today with the wind chill it was  -60 below out. So  I've been knitting mittens and hand sewing some bags that would make good book bags.  The only good reason for this cold weather is that I have an excuse to say home and craft craft and craft some more. Sure hope I don't run out of supplies!
