********** Right out of the blocks this morning, I'm all about tennis. Why? Because there were two good matches going on last night, that had to be postponed until today....because of darkness! :-) ...and both of them are being finished this morning. In fact, the Tsonga/Wawrinka match is distracting me right now! It's 4/4 in the 5th set!....Juan Martin Del Potro and Tomas Berdych have to finish their match too. It's going on right now in another court.
As tennis goes, when it gets to these later stages of the tournament, the top ranking players are like cream that rises to the top when you're churning milk....Usually, they are the clear winners in each match. But there was an unexpected development yesterday...The #1 seed, Victoria Azarenka, was beat substantially by #15 seed, Dominika Cibulkova, 6-2, 7-6!!...It was a sledge hammer match...and so much fun to watch!

Later today it'll be Andy Murray versus Richard Gasquet, and Varvara Lepchenko versus Petra Kvitova. Maria Sharapova , and Na Li both have matches with players that I think they'll easily get through. And so does Rafael Nadal ("Baby Boy"). If not, you know I'll let you know about it! ^_^
SPOILER ALERT!!!...Tsonga just won his match!!! :-)
As I was saying...something about cream rising to the top...Congratulations Jo-Wilfried!!! ^_^ ...Anyway, it's gonna be good watching today too...that is if I can keep my eyes open! I didn't sleep good again last night. Grrr!
This time it's partly my fault though, because I was really sleepy at one point last night, and could've really went down for a while...I think!...but I forced myself to stay awake because I was watching the Boston Celtics/Miami Heat basketball game. ^_^ ...It was a nail-biter right down Paul Pierce and LeBron James getting fouled out...and to the second over-time...right up to the very last second of the game!....Congrats to my home team, the Boston Celtics!! ^_^ I hope I don't end up paying for that decision later today. I've got things to do!!!! **********
I'm working on a new crochet line for my shop. Lapel pin sets...I purchased some cuff links yesterday. I'm gonna see if a cuff link, instead of a button, works for the tiny colorful lapel pins...I'm gonna be making as many lapel pins as my arthritically rained on fingers can make...until the cuff links get here...If the cuff links don't work, at least I'll have the lapel pins all ready for button sewing!
I'm also starting to put price tags on individual items as I make them, and put them into a carrying case for hubby...
SPOILER ALERT:...Del Potro just won his match!!! :-) ...Congratulations Juan Martin!!! :-) Next stop...Roger Federer!!...
Now, as I was saying...Hubby has agreed to be my tester/salesman. He's gonna take my crochet jewelry over to the family and friends and see what they think, and if they would buy any of it...My family will be brutally honest. That's what I need right now...from someone who can see my work up close and personal....I'm not giving them my poetry to critique though! O_O I don't care if they like that or not....I'M GONNA BE TALKING!!!! LOL
Okay, off to finish eating...
...I'm not gonna eat this bread box though. It was just so cute that I had to show it to you! :-)
...Then I'm gonna relax myself and try to get some sleep!...
*Yawn*...Have a good day, Everybody!
What do YOU talk about?
What do YOU talk about
when you don't have much to say?
A short phrase about the weather?
Or the 'fine'-ness of the day?
Do you ask: "How do you do?",
hoping they won't say a thing?
Or just say: "Call me tomorrow",
hoping that the phone won't ring?
Do you lend yourself to grins,
and slight noddings of the head,
knowing big smiles and eye contact
would make you committed to what they said?
What do YOU talk about
when your 'talker' is 'on the blink'?
Not hardly much at all.
Certainly not much as you would think!
