Two weeks have passed since we came back from vacation. I was so full of energy at first, made plans on things to do, projects to start, blogging and catching up with things where I left it. I even started on a few blog posts but they just ended up being such loooooong rambles that I never got around to edit or to push the publish button... I thought, after a few days in limbo, that maybe I just need to land in my Home Sweet Home for a bit first...
I landed. I started knocking off things on my To-Do list, kept my kids stimulated enough to not heavily fall into Cyber world 24/7. I got poorly and suddenly my machinery was running on low gear and I started to feel bad about being ill, as a mother most often do, or at least I do (we want to be Superwomen right?). What a waste to be sick and miss out on hours of productivity... Kind of sad that...
Anyway. I'm picking up my energy levels. Surprisingly I've accomplished more in the last 24 hours than in a long time. :) And I finally - FINALLY - finished my Wall Of Frames. I'm so happy this project is now accomplished. It's been dragging on for over a year. So typical me, I would say.
So, to keep this short and bubbly. I'm here. And I'll be back with glimpses of summer fun, new projects and much more very soon. Take care my lovelies. I'm off. To the garden. With crochet bag in hand. What are you up to?
Kärlek

Enjoyed your post, as I always do. It's Sunday here in North Carolina US and hot so I am staying inside. I should be doing wash, but instead I'm working on The History of Trees shawl by Christina Hadderingh. I'm using Scheepjes Stonewashed in the color Lemon Quartz and it is so pretty to work with.
ReplyDeleteI have a question for you...I have a friend who just lost his wife to cancer and want to make him a Christmas present. He was born in Sweden and immigrated as a teenager to the US. I want to make him a Mandala he can hang on the wall and I hope to make it in colors, or pattern to remind him of the Sweden he misses so much. Not being of Swedish descent I'm at a loss as to a pattern, or colors, or something he would like me to make. He lives in Texas now, so a hat/mittens etc., wouldn't work..too hot. That's why I thought of a Mandela. Do you have any suggestions?
I'm sorry this is so long. Have a wonderful week and thanks.
Welcome home! Feel better.
ReplyDeleteA little post-holiday energy here too, so I am making plans and decluttering, that sort of thing too. Well done on the picture wall, it's absolutely lovely and no doubt a pleasure every time you see it. CJ xx
ReplyDeleteI love your little chapel on the picture. Please tell us more about it, maybe some close up photographs? Best Regards.
