Drop a stitch, add a stitch, going crazy

The hardest thing to do is often to be less judgmental of ourselves. That mistakes happen (even when they are such a small simple thing) and to remember that we shouldnt let the mistake dim our inner light with disappointment. Feel the sad. Let it go. Learn from it and you will become better equipped for going forward into the future :-)

Too Many

There are just too many things to do. Go to work, 12 kids under 3, pick up this, drive here, dinner…shit…DINNER! Bath-time, bedtime, tomorrow lunches. Laundry, Did I eat Lunch today? Water; drink more. Cry a little. Vacuum, garbages out. Brush your teeth, hair fixing for the 7th? 7th time today. Kisses. Slowdown. Breathe. Okay, Im done. No crocheting today :-(  didnt talk to my sister today :-(   I did see other family:-)   Stress over writing a good "go" versus write for release. Reeeelaaaaaaax. *Sigh* time for sleep ...... :-)

Grandpa Callard

It has been way too long since Ive last written......thing is, life-changing events have taken place and I needed time to process before being in a place where I was willing to amplify my emotions through the release of writing.

I know a man who has worked his whole life,
And he wears the hats of many men.
A Husband, a Father, a Grandfather, a brother;
A man by the name of Raymond.
This man taught lessons numerous,
With his action he led his way.
Always with a fire for justice,
Always with honor complete at the end of his days.
This man taught me you never stop dreaming,
That you must always have a plan.
He taught me Discipline, Respect, and laughter.
He taught me to lend a helping hand.
For this man was my Grandpa,
Who's love for us was infinitely strong.
I will never say goodbye to him,
For in our hearts he lives forever on.

Raymond Callard RIP xoxoxoxo

Croquet

Im Left-handed and am learning to croquet Right-handed bc my Grandma is RH and teaching me. A good 5-7 hours into making this scarf I laugh at myself realizing my Husband would so much rather own a touque for Christmas. Well.....let me tell you something about dominance. My Left hand wont stay the f outta there! My chains and jazz are tight and miserable. I finally get RH dominance and 2 hours later have a finger puppet lol Even my 20 day old niece will be to big for this 'hat'. I change the increase and chain sticking to what I think is a doublechain and am 5? Rows or 'circles' down. Im thinking 4-8 more and Ive taught myself, ode to Grandmas Skills, a wonky homemade hat for my daughter. Ill post a pic as soon as its completed.
