Live, From the Pro Shop

It is 9:38 am, I've been here about an hour, balanced my cash, got all my work stations set up the way I like them, stocked the fridge...

The "old" group started about 9.  One of them always eats lunch here.  He loves my Reuben sandwiches, even took one home to his wife on Thursday.

The friend I've been telling you about...he's here today.  I let him pick out one of my Critters, he picked the patriotic elephant.  :)  I think I'll send him home with the red pig, too, because I was thinking of him when I made it.  His group took off around 9:30, they should be finished between noon and 1.

The Pres. just came in, he's a good guy most the time.  Frank came in, but he and the Pres. got into a little tiff the other day and there's a little tension between them.  Silly boys.  Looks like that group is getting ready to tee off.  My Jack, Pres., Doc (Holy Cow), Chuck and Frank.  This group should be finished about an hour after the first group.

Most of these first groups are my favorites.  They usually always have lunch, especially on the weekends.

There will be another group, they usually start about 11.

I didn't bring any Critter material to work on today.  I was feeling a little melancholy this morning, and couldn't wrap my head around what I felt like working on, so decided to do a little computer work today.

So, that's my morning here at Twin Pines.

Make it a good day and Play Nice!  xxoo

A little absent (minded)...

Wait, what?  Just kidding.  My sweetheart, (from this day on he will be called Mr. Stubborn) has been ill.  Ill enough to take himself to his bedroom across the hall Thursday evening.

And there he's been, except for his sneaking out of his bedroom to do things I'd prefer him not to do when he's sick,  like emptying the dishwasher, folding towels, getting a snack...and doing things he shouldn't even be worried about, like the litter box.  I told him the first day to stay in his room and not germ up the house.  Then he has the nerve to say, "I hope you don't get this."

In my trying to take care of him, all he's done is piss me off & put me in a cranky ass mood.

So...I'm not saying another word to him.  We've been cooped up in here since Friday...well, I "got" to get out of the house to go to the grocery store this morning.  While I was gone he was all over this place.

I have kept myself occupied, during this duration, by watching LOST and making critters.  I know there's at least one new picture up there.  I'm trying a new technique with the eyes, which led to new ideas and techniques in my mind...

He just slipped down the hall again.  I'm going to shut my door a little bit so I don't have to see him when he comes back through.  And then I'm going to finish up a couple of critters, and hopefully my head will not explode before the end of this day.

Blue on Blue Pig

I like how he turned out.  The Donkey, I am still working on.  I hadn't slept very well the last couple nights, so I decided to hit the feathers early last night.  And I did sleep very well, until I woke up at 3:00 in the morning, having to use the bathroom...

What I forgot was that the handle that attaches to the flushy thing broke yesterday...but at 3 am, well, I wasn't thinking very clearly, I'm sure I was quite anxious to get back to that dream I was having...finished up and went to flush...I gotta take the lid off the tank, find the handle to pull up, which slipped through my sleepy, fumbly fingers, which meant I had to plunge my hand into that cold water...

Needless to say, the dream was gone.  Being ever the optimist, though, I figured out how to use this as a fun opportunity...dried my hand, slid back into bed, placing my hand squarely in the middle of my sweetheart's back.  He jumped, flipped over to see what the heck had happened, and I faked being asleep better than I have ever faked anything!  *gs*

Nothing was said this morning, but he went out early and got the part to fix it.  I love my life!  

I've learned how to add a link (yay me), so that's exactly what I did over there to your right...

Free Felt Patterns and Tutorials.  

Nice to find a place like that.  

Y'all have a good day, please try to do something really fun and or funny today.  xxoo
