Tuesday Talking…
When I got back from Pat’s on Sunday, I was treated, in addition to thunder and lightning, some wild wind! I like to keep my bedroom window open a bit, and I could hear all the really big trees in the back yard; their branches were whipping back and forth. Something so calming about that sound.
I bought a new duvet cover (Wolf dug a hole in the last one, lil bastid) and I washed, dryed and put the comforter inside it. Oh, man, is it soft!!! It’s a brown paisley design, I’ll take a picture of it. Came with two shams, too. Nothing like sinking into bed with a good book.
Speaking of books, I finished Colleen Gleason’s newest one, Bleeding Dusk, this morning. Great book, there were a couple of big surprises; overall, I enjoyed it very much.
I’ve been having fun with my One Object-365 Days project over on flickr. My one object is one of my poppets, of course, the skeleton one LOL! I even took him to Pat’s this weekend, after forgetting him at work last weekend.
As for the weather, we’re expecting snow today at rush hour. I’m bummed out about that, as 1) I was looking forward to dinner with Michelle, and 2) I’m so sick of the snow and cold. I can’t wait til springtime; barring that, I’m taking a trip to Florida in March for a few days and I know that’ll warm me up.
That’s it!
Oh, I did want to thank Knittymuggins, aka Maryanne, so very much for the beautiful fingerless mitts she made and sent me (I badgered her incessantly!!!).
Aren’t they gorgeous?
She’s a talented knitter and a very nice person. She also sent me a cool button, not knowing I collect them, so I put it up in my car with the rest of my beloved buttons:
it’s the one with the knife!

Those are gorgeous!
Cute buttons, too. I wonder whatever happened to all the ones I collected back in hs. And to the jacket that held them too.

I’ve wanted to do one of those Flickr projects, but I’m too intimidated to take it on.
Because a) my photos still suck and b) don’t. have. attention. span.
It’s amazing I can blog.

Gawgeous gloves. I had to buy a pair myself so I could keep my hands warm but still type! It’s so cold in my office.
And I’d love to see a pic of that warm, soft, cozy duvet cover. Do post!

Awww…. you are so sweet!! You didn’t bother me *at all*! And I’m so glad they fit and you like them. The button too! I still can’t get over the fact that you collect them
