Do you have a childhood memory, from when you were a kid, of waking up on the weekend to the smell of bacon frying?...Of walking slowly toward the kitchen, maybe dragging your 'blankie' with you, and seeing your mom, all smiley and in an over-exuberantly good mood, offering you a big hug and a large glass of cold, frothy chocolate milk with a red and white colored straw in it?!
Clearly I do!...and it's those memories that fly into my head when I see photos like the one in the header photo above. First class memories! Memories that give you good things to think about even when bad things are happening all around you.
Speaking of first class...and photos...look at one of the photos that was on the Wimbledon Facebook site yesterday!...
It's Prince William and Kate! They came to see Roger Federer and Andy Murray play!!...and Roger and Andy did not disappoint. They both won! :-)
In fact, there was all kinds of royalty at Wimbledon yesterday!...even tennis 'royalty'...
...which included the likes of Andre Agassi and Steffi Graf! :-) ...Oh, I miss seeing them play! Talk about good memories!...Oh Well.......Moving on!
I spent part of the day yesterday looking for good things to put in my head....besides sleepy dreams I mean, cuz OH YEAH!...I did some more sleeping!! :-] ...So, I popped over to the front page of Etsy...just to see what kind of crazy stuff was there!....(I do that sometimes...and you probably wouldn't admit it, but you probably do that too! LOL)...What did I find?!...Not crazy stuff at all! But these two cuties...
Aren't they delicious?! :-) They look like little homemade lolli-hearts!
And then there was these cuties...a set of 4 too!...
Don't you just love the little pocket?!! I'd never seen a placemat like that before! Perfect for the front page! ... or the front table at dinner! :-)
No, I didn't spend my whole day online or sleeping. I also did a bit of crocheting...of course. :-)) I wanted to show you the wedding boutonniere we finally decided on...
The two shades of gray and the purple passion look great together. But I couldn't decide whether to put the dark or the light gray in the middle (the light gray is in the middle in the photo above). The customer left it up to me!
I finally decide not to put the light gray in the middle...because the silver button wouldn't show up as well against the lighter color...Here's the finished product...
What do you think?!...Honestly, I still miss the 'iris' color. It would have really popped with that color in the middle! But I think the groom will still look pretty handsome with this one on his lapel! :-)
After I finished the boutonniere, I was looking around for something fun to work on...something new....This is what I found...
Do you know what it is?! ^_^
If you do....you're good!! LOL I'm gonna work on it some more to day. I'll show you what it is when it gets further along.....assuming that I can figure out the pattern! It's kinda patchy! :-]
Okay, back to bed....and some more childhood memories! :-)
What do you want?!....I'm working on my mood! :-] ...I am feeling better today too. More determined than weepy. And I hope you are too!...Have a good day, Everybody!
Feeling Better
There's no card for "Feeling Better"!
But I think that there should be,
when my friends have sent good wishes;
and been loving up on me.
When they've sent good food to eat,
flowers, cards, emails, and calls.
When they've made it bearable
watching T.V. and 4 walls.
I'd like a card to send them back,
with a smiley face there too,
saying: "Feeling so much better;
and it's all because of you!"
