Follow Me Friday ~~ Making Incense Part 2

Hello 😊

HUMMMM....this is a "lost post".  I found it in my drafts folder.  It was written June 26, 2016.  Enjoy a blast from the past from me.  Sounds like it was a pretty good day.  

It's been an interesting weekend. Friday and Saturday were both busy days.  In-between customers I have been looking at twiddle muff ideas.  I have started a few times and frogged. Still not sure what I want to do. I may have to follow some sort of pattern. I'm not always good at winging it.

We went out of town today. Oldest son went too. We introduced him to our favorite burger place. Mmmmm they have good food. He liked them as well and thanked us for inviting him.

Hubby and I stopped at a flea market while we were out.  I found a jar of buttons for a good price. I was needing buttons to finish a bag I made several months back.

The jar had several visible buttons about the size I thought I wanted to use. Once I started sorting them I changed my mind on what I wanted. I chose these red bead like buttons. Now I just need to find my sewing kit and sew them on. 

Since it was supposed to rain tonight we decided not to do any painting outside. 

Instead hubby started working out the new sign for The Castle.  

I didn't go to the laundromat today. I'll do that tomorrow night.

Thanks for stopping by 🌈

Tunisian in the Round Bag

Have you ever just randomly went looking for something new to crochet and stumbled on something amazing?  I did.  Since I'm so into tunisian crochet I typed that into the search bar on YouTube and found an amazing tunisian in the round tutorial.  The pattern was for a hat......but I made a bag instead.

Here's a link to the tutorial if you're interested.

I can see myself doing more if this in the future.  This would be amazing for hats and leg warmers (do people still wear those?), scarves etc.  I think it would be very warm.



This bag is for sale.  You can purchase it HERE on my business page

HHM 5-1-17

Long time to post.  It's been 3 weeks at least.  I've been posting videos on YouTube though.  Was trying for 2 a week.  If you don't want to go look now I have the links scheduled in future posts here.  Today I feel crappy. It's my turn to be sick.  Hubby had it and is basically well now. Son has it for about a week now. This past weekend I got it.  Whatever IT is we don't like it!  Anyway I have been working on posting links to my youtube videos here for future posts, and posting products for sale on some facebook groups and on my webpage.  Since I was here I decided to post a HHM today.

As I look outside my window:::
The sun is shining. The wind is blowing, and it's COLD outside!  Currently 51.  It has rained and rained and rained all weekend, so the grass and leaves on the trees are green.  There is still a lot of flooding around.  Im glad we live downtown.  It's the highest spot in town.

 
Right now I am::: 

FREEZING!  Not feeling well doesn't help either.  

Something funny from this past week:::
There is a newer red mustang that parks out front of the Castle.  Several times this past week I have observed Fuzzy admiring it from the window upstairs.  Ok maybe far fetched, but there were no people to watch and it looked like she was looking directly at it.

Currently Reading:::
Nothing right now but I did finish "The Billionaire Widow's Bride" by Faith Crawford this past weekend.

On my to do list today:::

I've already paid the loan payment and rent, so nothing much else cause I just don't feel like doing anything.

Today's Lunch:::

we came up with an amazing chicken wrap this weekend with some samples we got from our food supplier.  If the price is right they will be on our menu soon.

Preparing for Warm weather:::
Haven't done much thinking on this lately,  It's still been pretty cool and not too hot.  Honestly I haven't done much thinking about it either.  Well yes I have, but not "home improvement" thinking.  I've been looking at pop up trailers and dreaming about heading out to the lake and camping.  It should be cooler out there than downtown, right?



What I am crocheting:::

I am actually farther along on this.  It's tunisian lace crochet.  I am making a scarf.  This is one of 3 that I consider current WIP's.

From the camera:::

Ugh....Roof Leak in the new theatre room!  No worries we didn't finish the ceiling on purpose because we were waiting on a hard rain with strong winds hoping to figure out where it was coming from.

Something I Recently Made:::

More about this in an upcoming post.......

Praise/Prayer List:::
PRAISE the sun is shining today!
PRAISE  It's been cool enough we haven't had to run the AC

Prayer me and youngest son to get well

Prayer hubby's upcoming dental surgery


I'm joining Sandra at Diary of a Stay at Home Mom for HHM.  Go visit her and the rest of those who have joined in. 

Thank you for stopping by and visiting. 

I Had an Idea.....

and it worked!  I discovered I can use the IPad to record a video and then upload it to my YouTube channel and edit it.  I have another "Follow Me Friday" video scheduled for Friday and am working on a "Tunisian Thursday" video that I'm hoping to have ready for this Thursday.  2 scheduled days can't be too much to keep up with can they?  I sure hope not.  When you don't actually try to make money on YouTube and you keep seeing the dollars tick up it gets kinda exciting.  Still not trying too hard, but doesn't hurt trying a little harder.
