I had a dream in which my father had made me so angry, I vowed never to speak to him again. I climbed up a built-in ladder to find 3 telephone books. At the top of the ladder, I stopped to put on blush.
I have no idea what any of this dream means. I woke up feeling slightly amused.
The rest of my day went well. I got up and dressed in my casual Red Hat Society gear with my red hat. I wore black pants and a purple shirt, black sneakers and white socks. Why the white socks? They are the only kind I have. I would like to get some dress socks but haven't so far. Ah, another thing to add to the list.
Today I had a Red Hat Clothing Exchange and Luncheon. My husband made my contribution, a cucumber and tomato salad with cheese. We used cut up sticks of string cheese, a little strange but the ladies seemed to like it. I tried on some clothes and walked away with 2 tops and an outfit that needs a little tailoring. The lunch was a bunch of different salads, jello salads, pasta salads, and other meaty salads. Chocolate popcorn from the Boy Scouts, of which I only had a taste. It was two chapters, Ladies of the Red and Purple Cloth and Dazzling Divas. We have been doing activities together and it has been fun. We had an activity of making a beaded ornament. We were given a Styrofoam ball, several types of rick rack, pearl beads, pony beads and headed pins. There was a silver tassel and ribbon by which to hang the ornament. Mine turned out to be very beady and fun. My index finger on my right hand is still a little sore from pushing in all those pins. Later, my husband has promised to show me how to add pictures to my blog.
By the time I got home, I was tired so I laid down and took a nap. When I awoke it was to the wonderful smell of brownies and here came my hubby up the stairs with a warm brownie and vanilla ice cream! Such a sweetie and great timing!
The rest of the night passed by quickly, relaxing after crocheting every minute I could. I am about to start two more cowls but since I am going to make another one in light colored yarn, I think I will try just making them one at a time. But working two at a time, one in the morning and one in the evening seems to work just right, so why mess with success. Only I do need a present for the Red Hat Luncheon so I will make a scarf for that, it should only take me two, maybe three days. Christmas luncheon is on Thursday so if I hurry, I can get it done. And I am getting fast. I will use the rest of the lilac ball for the new one.
Tomorrow hubby and I are meeting my parents at the Food and Gift Mart Expo that I got tickets for a couple of weeks ago. We will be home around 230pm and I can start my scarf then. The beginning of scarf always takes a while to get through but once I get it started, it should go pretty quickly. I will have to work on the mutant bulldog and the photo album later. Time is going pretty quickly to get to Christmas so got to make sure I don't waste time. And I can't get so busy doing things that I forget to write to my nephew in prison. He has said that my letters are a high light of his days.
So today was a good day. The weather was good, the company fine and the food was delicious.
