I Took A Little Pause....For Winter?!

(tombland)

        I took a little pause from headband making yesterday to spend the day with two of my favorite people...my girlfriend and my hubby. :-) My girlfriend and I spent the first part of the day together, and me and hubby spent the evening together...doing a version of our 'Date Night' thing. :-]

     I know I shouldn't tell you...but I'm gonna tell you anyway! ^_^ I had chicken fried steak and sawmill gravy, grits, eggs, biscuits and blackberry jam, and a large coffee for breakfast....YUM!!!!!!!...Ooooo! flashback!! I just remembered my diary!

     I used to write in my diary every single day from when I was about 12 years old, up to about 17 or 18! And no matter what I wrote for the day...it always ended with me writing down what was for dinner! ^_^ And 'back in the day' that included what flavor of 'Kool-Aid' we drank with it! LOL

      So, as you can see from my food list above...some things never change! LOL...Not like the weather. That's always changing!! And pretty soon it's gonna change again around here...to winter...and ice...and snow....and snow mixed with ice! UGH! I know it will...because it's been hinting at it for a couple of weeks now.

     We've been getting what my grandmother would have called the kind of weather that 'spits at ya'! LOL ...But hey! Winter is not here yet! And since it's not...I needed to pause from headband making, to fingerless glove making...

 (Sizana)

        The above fingerless gloves were sorta my inspiration...I say 'sorta' because these are the style I like. Fingers completely out, so you can flip through your book or dial the phone,...and thumb half way out too, so your gloves won't just slip off your hand.

    But you know me.... :-) ...I needed some color!...

     I started showing you these yesterday. I hadn't started the end color yet though...

        As of this morning, I have one glove completely finished and I'm almost done with the second one...

       Are you laughing at my crazy-colored winter fingerless gloves?! :-)) If so....it's alright. I know they're not everybody's colors. But I like 'em!! ^_^ And I'm hoping that somebody sees them in my shop and likes them too!

     They're very time consuming to make. That's why I don't have more of them in my shop. But I think I'm gonna try to make more now. They seem to be popular. I know I've sold every pair I've made...even the black and purple striped ones!...Next time around though, I'll try to make a more toned down color pair...unless I get a custom request. Come on!..Don't you want me to make a funky-colored pair for you?! ^_^

         Last night hubby and I watched 'The Help'. For me it was the second time during the day. My girlfriend and I watched it too! ^_^ Both times it was good!!...It might not have been as much about the movie as it was about spending the time with two of my favorite people though. :-) I'm gonna continue that time today...after some more pressing things are done. {Hubby has to put brakes on the car.}

     Have a good weekend everybody!!...Try to spend some of it...or all of it if you can...with your favorite people! :-)

My Favorite People

My favorite people listen well,
and talk almost as good.
They like to eat good food,
and hang out in my neighborhood.

They like a chuckle now and then,
and dance when music's played.
And give nice complements...
and no! they haven't all been paid!

Some 'favorite people' are, I'm sure,
still ones I haven't met.
But until then, my favorites are
ones owed a 'loving' debt.

They've loved me through some heartache,
and the hardest, roughest time.
They're my favorites for a reason,
and deserve this 'Debbie' rhyme.
