my Jelly



i love jelly fish of all kinds and i have pictures and stuffed animals of them as well as a beautiful DVD of them swimming around. So i found a pattern to crochet them. This is not one from the pattern this is one that i made up myself.

Taking On a Lot and Loving It

~~~~ i have started working on making blankets for one of the groups i belong to on Ravelry. We are making healing blankets for people nominated by our group with squares made from all over the world. Plus i am working on my own projects as well. i am making table covers from my end tables in my living room, as well as dish towels and dish clothes for my kitchen, and knitting a blanket for my son. 

~~~~ Not to mention that i am reading two books one that i have read many times but still love The Secret Circle Part 1 by LJ Smith paperback and then Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen on my Kindle. i love reading and i do it as much as i can. Plus i am watching my Gilmore Girls TV series on DVD so as i am watching these DVD's i am crocheting away working on one project or another until my carpal tunnel starts acting up and my arms start killing me again. Then it is time to read. 

~~~~ With the weather getting warmer i have my windows open and am loving the fresh air coming into my apartment and the natural light that i can let in with the open curtains it is great. i can not wait until all the snow is off the ground and spring is here so i can go and sit outside to crochet and read. i am hoping that by sitting outside i can get some much needed sunlight to feel better and maybe have some of my neighbors get interested in learning to crochet so i can get the word out about my crochet lessons that i want to offer to people around town.

Now That Christmas Is Over

~~~~ Now that Christmas is over i have more time to blog on here. i did get all my Christmas presents done and handed to the correct people and now i can work on some other projects that i have sitting around that need to get done. i also have a pair of fingerless gloves that i need to do for my brother's girlfriend's mom. She saw the ones i made for my brother's girlfriend and really liked them and said she would pay me for a pair for herself. Since i love making them and they are really easy i have no problem making them for her. Plus i can use the extra cash even if it is only a few bucks. 

~~~~ i have several blankets to finish. One for my friend AP's daughter that is almost done, one for my son, and one for Roommate. i want to try and get these done ASAP so that i can get other things started and finished plus i want to make a blanket for myself for my bed. i can not wait to start on that one but i will not do that until i have all these other blankets that i started, finished.
