sad jollimon


THis is a sad Jollimon, the `guys' are going out for their `guys night out' and left him....AND he found out that he beloved is going away for another 2 weeks...so he is sad & going into depression. This will be lifted on Turkey Day when grandma & poppy come over. He adores them.
I still have a few squares to trim & prepare for an ghan assembly with Heartmade Blessings. So thats what is in my basket for tinoghts crocheting. I wont be able to assemble probally until DH leaves so I will keep trimming squares for ghans until then. There is always OPH (Operation Purple Hearts) ghans to make-so I make squares & assemble those when all esle is done. I have been doing 7 in squares for a friendship granny sq exchange but I have them all made & off in the mail. Thats fun- `meeting' other crocheters. I LOVE the surprises the mail man brings-another crochet sq to add to the box for assembling into an ol traditional granny ghan. I plan to trim them all in black & assemble... Plus everyone puts little goodies in the package-patterns-crochet things etc & a letter telling about themselves. I LOVE fiding out new crochet things. Also I make so much but never for myself, so it been fun getting sq's that I dont have to assemble & send out. I probally will make something for over the long sofa. I was watching late nite TV & caught the Roseanne show on Nick at night. Well she has the ol traditional granny ghan over the sofa. It was sooo funny to see. It reminded me of the old days when we would go to a grandmas house & she would bring out the old ghan on a cool night. Too much changes with time-we have to recapture some of what gets lost-so I will try to make one. It takes longer to collect 7 in squares- I make squares all the time so I am trying to send some to my box...when you do charity croceht as mnuch as I do it is hard to keep things here. You feel that someone else somewhere needs it more, so off it goes. Hmm I wonder how many crocheters even have nice ghans? or do we send them all off to others?? hmmm My dear friends Ghost made a wonderful Teddy ghan for my litte guy. He adores it. I will get a picture & you will see what a wonderful crocheter she is as wellas a kidn & loving heart.
I have the windows open as it has been spring like weather lately & gets COLD at night- I am sitting in front of the window & my feet are now freezing ao it is perfect time to get in a hot tub. While the sad dog ponders his life
((((HUGS)))

I have a few ghans I've made for the kids and Todd and one I made long, long ago for myself. Mostly I make gifts and charity items. We use flannel blankets to wrap in.

Ha! I have watched Rosanne also and thought the same thing myself. Sounds like you have very busy hands and I am not surprised.
