This is the progress on my other strawberry tea cozy. Figuring out the tea cozy was the easy part. Ughh... I have about 20 of those flowers done, but probably 80 ends to weave in. Then sew them on.. I still have to crochet some strawberries and vines and leaves, too. 😟 I have a serious problem with not finishing things, and starting new things.. Sigh. I shouldn't even allow myself to look at new patterns for ideas. Right now I have this tea cozy going, the dinosaur I started. Which I don't even know what I am going to do with, because the cost of shipping things in the mail is so *&%$#@! ridiculous now!! I hate it so much! I tried to mail a handmade card (this one, to be exact). It was over $5. For a fricking card. I tried to mail four tea bags to someone in the UK last month, and he said it would cost $22 something. I said "Do you know how many BOXES of tea I could buy for $22????" So I had to carefully undo the envelope (I had stamped a bunch of bee things on it, I wasn't going to just use another one). OMG Anyway so I am not going to be shipping the dinosaur. Sigh... What else do I have going? Well, technically, nothing. I just have so much I WANT to crochet.
Today we are under a "severe weather alert" Heat Advisory. We were under one yesterday, too. And the day before.It got up to 94*. And with the humidity, I don't even know. I read online that the heat index was 105-110. But I don't know if that was true. It's miserable. That's for sure. It's like trying to breathe pea soup outside, it's so hot and muggy. Welcome to summer. It can't just be average, normal weather here. It has to be bitter cold, ice, snowstorm, ice storm. Or so hot and humid, tornado warning, severe thunderstorm and wind... Ugh... I know why I wanted to move away from here back when we did...
For some reason I started decorating the kitchen and dining room with 4th of July stuff this morning. I don't know. I need a distraction. Sigh... Then, of course I started looking for 4th of July gnome crochet patterns.. 🙄 This is why I get too many crochet projects going! I found a couple, but one is a paid for pattern. This one is free. I already got my yarn and hook out to make it. LoL. It's too hot to do anything else today. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
Random, but does anyone even blog any more? Am I the only one who still blogs?
