Bet once you get the hang of it you`ll be as bad as the rest of us at adding to your stash of wool.:T

welcome to the `club` by the way, we`re a very friendly lot. If you haven`t already done so - have a look at the very first page where you`ll find lots of useful info, and don`t be afraid to shout if you need help with anything, there`s always someone about who can point you in the right direction.

Orkneystar - well done you, there`ll be no stopping you now

Elaine.
off to read the rest of the posts to catch up - back later.

Well done Orkney Star, I have to admit I am rubbish at the crochet, so I use the knitting pattern that PSSO posted, I couldn't leave it at one either - so kept going but still have an ODD number!!
Had a really good day today and managed to cut out all the materials for another two animal activity books, so perhaps over the next day or two I can sew them all up.
Thank you all for being so generous with the hugs, I have really appreciated them over the last few days. Having you all around is like sitting in a big comfy chair with the fire lit and the dogs at my feet, oh and a hot chocolate to drink - BLISS - lovely and cosy.

PS there is a boobie with a tatoo heart on the Loving Hands web site/forum will go see if I can find it for you

Good to see you posting again Jean. Hope you are feeling more like your old self.
Love the activity book you put on wooligans - gorgeous.
Trying to decide what to do now - have quite a few half finished things (and some barely started ) but not sure what I feel like. I waste so much time dithering..........Away to try and start something

Well done on completing your first boob Orkneystar.

Here`s the link to the boob with the heart on it. Pretty eh ??

Just in case you couldn`t find it Roamin`.
Nice to see you back on your usual form Jean,

Been having a read through the recent posts - what a lot of upsets have been happening.

Hope you get the school bullying sorted out - been there as well - schools say there are policies to deal with that sort of behaviour - " but bullying doesn`t happen in our school" not much it doesn`t !!!!

LC Wilson, crikey your family are certainly going through bad times just now. :eek:

Big ((hugs)) for those needing them.

Had a bit of a bad day here too - it`s a year ago today since Jim had his original heart attack, yet more reminders. Woke at 3am with a jump. I could have SWORN I heard him saying `Elaine I can`t breathe` just as he did last year. Creepy, it gave me the shivers I can tell you !!

However, on a happier note, I received a `virtual bouquet` from a friend via an e-card. I nearly didn`t open it as I`ve been having so many probs with the `puter and I thought it was spam.

Not a lot of charity knitting being done here - doing bits and pieces for birthdays and Ch****mas, but I have been sewing up some stuff for the LH challenge ready to send off to Lou and sewing some squares together for pet blankets (thanks dpixie) for the sale at the end of October.

Rambled enough for now.
