Half crazy and half done

Where did it go ?  The week - it has vanished.  It seems like I just posted Sunday night and POOF it is Thursday.   I had an email from a dear blog friend today who asked me if I had been run over by a giant SUV.  Lol   Nope, nothing that dramatic.  It was just one of those weeks that got away from me.

Well thats the half crazy part.  Now for the half done part.   Some of my regular "hooker" readers may want to sit down before they continue reading.  It's for your own safety.

I have finished the binding on 2 of the 4 little rugs . . . . . . . .  I know - it is SHOCKING !


Two rugs bound in one night.  I can hardly believe it myself.  I finished the edges Deanne style and it went by quickly - plus the rugs are smallish.


Still on the snowman theme - today was Mom's adult day care.  They usually make some kind of craft while they are there.  Today she came home with this cute painted glass snowman.


The staff and volunteers at this program are angels.   I doubt I would have the patience to make a craft with 12 alzheimers patients. 

Now I'm off to catch up on what you have all been doing all week.

    I'm glad that I was sitting down.
    Girl, you are one disciplined hooker. Your little mats are just adorable. You must have enjoyed yourself for the week to go so fast.

    I can't believe how fast the time goes either. My little grandson is already 10 months old today.

    How so very sweet of those care giver to do crafts with the Alzheimer patients. Her snowman looks cute. I hope that your mom had fun working on it.

    Big Hugs for everyone including Millie., JB

    Kim ~
    What is finishing Deanna style? Just turning the edges under and tacking down?
    I hate binding, too, so I've been trying to make myself bind 15 minutes a day. That's about all I can handle...lol!
    I absolutely love that little snowman mat!!! And your mom's snowman is very sweet, too.
    Hugs :)

    Yippee!!! And they look MAAAARVELOUS Miss Kim! I'm not sure I'm familiar with Deanne's method - but truly, binding is one of my favorite things to do. SO relaxing....I used to dread it too, but since learning a new way, I actually look forward to it - and best part is there's not messing with the rug tape on the backs. You go girl! Love mom's snowlady too!!! Have an awesome Friday! Smiles & Hugs ~ Robin
