Yahoo! I can report something finished on an actual Friday!
Category: Diamond Painting
I only titled it that way to remind me once again. It’s been every day of the week today. I hate it when it’s like that.
I’m sorry for not getting down to personal bits here. Seems I’m barely showing up since my little vacation. My rhythm is way off.
The only consistent thing is knitting. Here are the newest slipper socks I finished yesterday.
Oops! Speaking of purple. My other constant. Though not as much time is spent diamond painting as I’d like.
Busy is calling. I’ll check in more tomorrow.
I’m grateful for my new laptop but have to admit my frustrations of starting over. All my writing in yWriter7 and WriteItNow and Scrivener are stuck in RTF form and tons of work awaits to bring them back to life. So that’s my time lately in a nutshell.
Sadly I have to report I didn’t get but half my word count goal this month. But I had a marvelous time with family and friends, so not really complaining. Just reporting.
While my brother and husband did the vet run. My son and I cleaned. He worked on the out of control mud room. I shampooed the carpets. It was nice not to have furballs in the way. We were successful in our ventures. Now I need to finish cleaning out the shampooer. Yuck!
My friend had to go home today. I hate goodbyes, don’t you?
We had a lot of fun despite the 90+ heat. It was nicer inside, thanks to my daughter and her fiance, who sent us an air conditioner. It keeps it cool in our home. Sometimes it’s cold.
Anyway, we binged on The Umbrella Academy while knitting or diamond painting.
My friend finished her moon on side one. I finished the heart side one. Sorry I didn’t take a picture of her project but here’s mine.
Here’s here knitting project to donate to charity.
So I started the slippers on the Flexee fine-gauge loom with 40 pegs. I used the following cast-on using the cuff-down rather than my usual toe-up.
After a couple weeks away I finally got the chance to DP. Here’s the progress.
The animals reclaimed the sofa.
I have company still, who also enjoys diamond painting and loom-knitting so we are having fun watch shows, chatting, and hobbying. Two weeks of fun!
When I first got to my friend’s house, her cat, Stormagedden-dark lady of all, was afraid of me. I spent a lot of time with treats and toys. I think, now that it’s time to go home, she’s starting to accept me.
The heart got some diamonds. Just didn’t have the back for it. My floor sleeping skills are getting better, but not quite as strong as when I was younger.
Meanwhile, I’m told that Kali sits in my recliner at home howling. It makes me sad and feel like I’m cheating in my pup with Storm. 😢
I brought my little kit with me. My friend and I sat and DPed while watching The Umbrella Academy.
It’s been in the 100s so sitting around in the cool house made for quieter fun.
Here’s what I got done so far.
Back side finished today. I still have a couple more forms to work on. This kit is portable and easy to do in small bits.
I’ve got a pair of socks going, too.
We took a little trip to see our friend. It was good to see her healthy. We laughed and enjoyed each other’s company at a park. Starting the visit with a COVID test to make sure the exposure she had from a previous meeting was negative is a weird way to start a visit. But we are rather in that vulnerable population so we have to be careful. She was negative. So we celebrated life.
I’m having a blast this week. Friends and my adult children on long visits are building my memory banks with love.
And that is how this hat came about.
I ordered this.6 Pack 5D Diamond Painting Kit,Diamond Painting Kits for Adults ,Full Drill Diamond Art Diamonds Gem Art Drill and Dotz 12″ x 16″ (Waterfall) https://a.co/d/bCUypkJ
I didn’t need all six. I gave all but two away. This is the one I kitted up today.
So unfortunately the lighthouse is finished. My next project won’t be here until Wednesday. I’m at loose ends. Meanwhile, I still need to straighten, seal and hang it.
I finally hung the tea dragon on the tea cabinet. My phone camera was being weird. It looks far better than this.
I’m nearing my goal on my memoir for Junowrimo.
