I was up early again this morning... 3 a.m. ...to see the LIVE women's final at the Australian Open. As you can see by the header photo, congratulations goes to Victoria Azarenka!!! :-)

She truly played her heart out!!...I almost felt bad for Maria Sharapova, her opponent, because even though Victoria lost her serve right out of the gate, it was clear shortly after she composed herself that she was not gonna be denied the win!!
It was well worth waking up before the sun to see! :-) Now I can hardly wait to wake up early tomorrow for the men's final! :-) That's gonna be a doozy of a match too...Rafael Nadal versus Novak Djokovic! :-) I hope Novak is all rested up by then, after that 5 set match with Andy Murray yesterday!! Good stuff!...He's gonna need every ounce of energy he can muster if he has any hope of beating Rafa again!
Okay, on to more 'self-serving' news! :-) My baby blue brooch from my Wuglyees Etsy shop...
...made a Baby Blue and White treasury!...
It was curated by RozelynnsNeedleArt..."Thank you for including me!" :-)
Such cute blues!...

There's other cute blues in this treasury too! If you wanna see the whole treasury you can click HERE.
On to other news...date night last night consisted of complete quiet time, tacos, and Tony Bennett collaborations with other singers,...singing standards!...Trust me when I tell you, you haven't seen a standard sung until you've seen Tony Bennett and Willie Nelson singing 'Sunny Side of the Street', or Tony Bennett and Lady GaGa singing 'That's why the lady is a tramp'!
Oh Yeah! I almost forgot to show you my latest crochet project. Nothing spectacular. Just gray...
I made it with the leftover gray yarn I had after I finished the scarf...
I don't have any more gray now. This flower took almost every single inch of what I had!...Hopefully I can get hubby to take some photos of the scarf today, and I can show it to you tomorrow. But for now, on to the next project! :-) ...
Another "Sack" hat!...But this time....turquoise!
I'm gonna use up every bit of yarn I have in this house.......ONE DAY!!!! LOL In the meantime, I hear a western omelet, sausages, and a cup of coffee calling my name!...P-O-E-T-E-S-S-W-U-G!!!! ^_^
Have a good weekend everybody! :-)
All The Things I Love
If I listed all the things I've loved
I could rattle on forever!
Whether by 'order of importance'
or by a poeticly quick endeavor.
Right now it's Tennis...Well, all sports,
and reading informative magazines.
And crocheting, food and music.
Well..that might be in my genes!
I've loved teaching and line dancing,
So many things in my short life.
But I've never jumped from a plane,
or wittled anything with a knife!
With every passing moon
I find some other thing that I love.
Whether grassy patterns on my lawn,
or phenomenal skies above.
Yes, if I listed all the things I loved
my words could fill all space,
It comes from curiosity,
and an Ooo-ing Awww-ing place!
