1. Amy, Colett and I had craft day today. We lunched, laughed and got some crafts done.
2. I got a lot of stitching done on Emerson's Christmas stocking. He is old enough to know if he doesn't get one like all the other grand kids. I better get cracking. I make the Bucilla felt stockings and have made 15 so far. Emerson's will be the 16th. If you count the ones I made Mom and Dad (not Bucilla) it is 18. I have enough room on my peg board for one more.
3. Kee gave us some little cardboard coffins that she got at Target. They were originally filled with candy. We decorated skeletons with cuffs, top hats and mustaches, then we lined the coffins with black velvet . They are pretty darned clever if I do say so myself. I may still try to make a monocle for mine.
4. Chorus practice went well tonight. We are finally starting to sound like a good choir. I need to work on my breathing though, I have become lazy.
I love my craft room. It has taken years to accumulate everything but I have a virtual little store. When I need something, it's rare that I can't go and find it in my storage.
I have all the tole painting books and supplies, flower arranging supplies, oil and watercolor supplies, sewing supplies, scrap booking supplies, basic craft supplies, needlework supplies and lots of glue tape etc. I am never bored. I just turn on the audio scriptures and work while I listen. It makes for a perfect day.
5. I'm still plodding along on my book "Devil in the White City" and am just amazed at what it took to build the Chicago World's Fair. I am really liking this book.
