You Ever Wish You Had More Hands, Or...

(Women's Cable Boot Cuffs by brokenhallelujah)

      You ever wish you had another set of hands?!...That's exactly what I thought when I saw these crochet boot cuffs! (in the header photo) With 'Wuglyees' turning into 'boutonniere and lapel pin making central', I don't dare start another project!..like a scarf, necklace, pocketbook, headband, finish a rainbow blanket, OR crochet yourself a boot cuff! :-) Oh! But I sure want to!

      I need a few more sets of hands though!...for crocheting each project simultaneously...and...hmmm...while I'm at it, why don't I just throw in another brain or two also! ^_^ After all, I have checkbooks to balance, bills to pay, grocery lists to make, studying to do, letters to write, people to call, and a husband's back to pat!.... O_O ...See what I mean?! 

     For now though, with boutonnieres and lapel pins going out of the shop in multiples, I'm gonna just focus on making new ones of them for a while...until the flow slows down....which I'm convinced will be today!!...I say that every day! ^_^ So far I've been...thankfully...wrong! LOL

     Not actually working on something else hasn't taken away my inspiration though. That's why I'm keeping my eye on the shop where the boot cuffs are! She's just a wealth of inspiration for me!...Not only because of the boot cuffs, but also these...

      I love that she uses such interesting buttons on her slippers! She's a girl after my own button-loving heart! ^_^

(Ivory Crochet Headband Bow)

     And, as of yet, I haven't been able to master the making of the crochet bow...but clearly she has!...and I don't have time to fool around with it right now! So, I'll keep my eye on her shop...for future inspiration. :-)

     Speaking of inspiration, there's another inspirational shop I'm in and out of on Etsy all the time too! It's called EyePoetryPhotography...The name says it all, right?! ^_^ Yes, it's photographs....Yes, they're a feast for your eyes....and Yes, they inspire poetry....

(Heart-Shaped Lights in the Streets of Paris)

      I often wander through this shop when I'm looking for Friday 'date night' destinations. :-]

(Eiffel Tower at Sunset)

      The photos of Paris and New York are just beautiful....Poetically beautiful! :-)

     And even if we're planing to stay home and go for a walk, this shop's photos give us inspiration for that too! :-) ...

 (Trees in Fog)

     You can click on any of the photos and go take a 'walk' too, if you like! :-)

     Okay, I'm off to finish my breakfast and try to use my ONE brain, and ONE set of hands, to take a dent out of the list of things I have to do!...I think I'm gonna enlist a certain 'manly' set of hands to help out with some of it though!...In fact, I've been training him to do a certain something that I'll tell you about tomorrow. :-)) ... Time....it goes away in a fog when you're not looking, doesn't it!...LOOK AT THE TIME!!!... O_O .... I definitely need another brain!...Have a good day, Everybody!

It All Went Away In A Fog

I dreamed I was writing my blog,
in the middle of an old Irish bog.
There came a woof! woof!
and the pounding of hoof,
and it all went away in a fog.

The next night I was out for a jog,
and again heard that same old dog!
I took off down the street,
hid in golden high wheat,
and it all went away in a fog.

I awoke eating just like a hog,
having wine with a spicy cheese log.
Giving numerous naps,
and the dog all my scraps,
it all went away in a fog!
