Crazy Week
This week - like many- has flown by. I’m not sure exactly what all was accomplished but will attempt an update.
The Newsletter is completed and we received word that it is printed so it can be distributed on time. YEA!!!
I’ve been helping a friend with a project and I think we are in the final stages of it. I’ve been learning how to use text boxes in a document. Text boxes have always been what my DH used and I generally used tables or avoided the issue. I’m finding that the dreaded text boxes are a lot easier to use that I remembered.
Since I live in a 55 plus building (almost all residents need to be 55-years-old or older to live here) I spend a lot of time visiting friends in the hospital or rehabilitation facilities. One of my wonderful 90+ friends has been struggling with a variety of problems (including removal of a kidney) and is in her second stay at a rehab facility. I’m glad to say that she is improving and may be home soon.
Craft wise, I’ve been working on trellis yarn necklaces since I sold most of mine at the last craft fair and I have another craft fair on the horizon. Here is a picture of one.
I’ve also started the fair isle hat needed for a shop model. I finally got gauge on it and am into the first section of the fair isle design. Hope to complete it next week.
Today I go help the granddaughter of my friend that died sort through her yarn and completed projects so the granddaughter can reclaim her basement. I guess it is piled high with random boxes and totes filled with a mixture of yarn, projects and incomplete knitting UFOs (Unfinished Objects) that were put in the basement a couple of weeks ago when the grandmother had to move suddenly. Should be an interesting and sad project. At least it is something I can do for this lovely young woman who is hurting and missing her grandmother.
