Two days ago, the biggest hail storm I've ever witnessed, hit. I mean, it was insane. It sounded like the house was being pounded by golf balls. I wasn't brave enough to venture outside and get a picture, but my friend did. I stole this from her.... and it's no exaggeration.... this is what the ground looked like!
We had two of these storms, back to back, then it cleared up and the rain came. It rained all day yesterday. Since that was the first day of Amy's illness, and I promptly threw up my breakfast, I was fine just hanging around, doing nothing. Ok, actually, I sat and watched hours upon hours of the tv show "Felicity," trying to finish it. I did. Now Anna is trying to catch up. :)
Poor Will though, yesterday was pretty boring for him. He started trying on/wearing my shoes. (I have got to get a better camera. I can't get a non-fuzzy shot of this mover!)
But today, I'm bored. So I decided to pull out a few craft projects. Actually, I had nothing in the works, so I had to come up with something.
First, I made these skirts for these jars. Inside the jars are some holiday bars- you know how you have all the dry stuff and then the person just adds the eggs or whatever? Yeah, those. They are for some friends at church.
Then I moved onto a wreath. I took the top of a pizza box and an old book.... and created this Book Page Wreath.
Cute, huh? And so easy! Who would have thought. Just rolled up book pages glued together.
Now I have 2 friends coming over tomorrow to make them! I guess I'll make another. Anyone want one? :) I'm in a crafting mood now. Ut oh!! haha.
I have to tell you, you don't have to keep busy EVERY minute of the day. Down time, self entertainment are quite acceptable. But I do love your projects. Amazes me how you come up with so many and follow through. Good girl. I love how Will knows the thing is supposed to go between the toes. Love always.
ReplyDeleteSorry Amy and you are sick!! I hope she gets better real fast. I'm sure Will doesn't like it when Amy isn't helping him get into things. Don't worry they'll make up for lost time. We had heavy rain last night and some this morning but otherwise it is just quite cold out up here. I can't believe the size of the snow balls that you were bombarded with. I hope we don't get them up here. We don't have a lot of hail though ours comes down in inches and I hope that won't be for a long time. Get well!! Much love to all Gram.
