My feet hurt ~~~

What a wild last few days.   Thursday I had to get some blood work done in the morning.  Went straight to the hook-in after that and made myself some breakfast since I had to fast for  it.  Linda, Barb and Brian were busy working away.  I cleaned up my mess and before you knew it the first person arrived to hook.  Nancy needed help with color planning a new rug she will be working on after she finishes her pumpkin, so I took time to help her out.  The people just kept coming and coming... It was wonderful! 

Of course the celebrating had to continue for Linda's Birthday :).  Joan dyed her a beautiful piece of wool.

Joan finished her commissioned piece. Just look at this monster!  She was telling us how many hours  and how much wool it took.  I'm sure the new owner is going to be very pleased!

Delores came with Ellie, Joanne and Becky. It was show and tell...

Becky's rabbit. Love it!

Joanne's piece..

Diane very busy working on her rug.

Nancy P and her two foot stool covers from left to right and the farthest on the right is a small purse she is making.

Sherry is ripping out to try something different.

Twin sisters Bert on left and Mabel on right.  Mabel made this quilt. 

There was even more Birthday celebrating going on. We had so many cakes that day! Barb made another one for Jackie. Her daughter dropped one off in the morning too for her. Can't say that anyone went home hungry :)

Birthday cards that got people laughing soo hard!

Sheep made out of cauliflower and black olives lol.  Too cute!

Group shots of everyone working.... Even Norton in the background LOL.  He's working on a pair of pants.

Some help in picking out colors

Sooo needless to say, I was busy the whole day. I really did not sit down much. By the end of the night I was pooped, and my feet really did hurt!  I teased Linda and said I guess I'll put my hooking away lol.  I think I pulled 10 loops the entire day.   It sure seemed like everyone had a great time. I know I did!!

On Friday I had dye group over Joan's house.  We were busy from the time we got there until it was over. And I had to leave around 2:40 or so. I had an appointment to get new tires put on the car.  I felt bad leaving, because everyone else was still working hard.  We will be starting a new group project, and we are dyeing wool for it.

It was also show and tell over Joan's.  Jewel finished her scroll piece. Just lovely. The background is a very dark plum.

Louise also finished hooking hers. Her background is a very nice soft black.  Mine? you'll probably never see it. Joan and I keep saying we lost ours :).  Not one I really want to finish!! It's not me. 

Jewel also is doing the letter of her last name. 

While waiting to get the tires on my car, I got a text from my friend Rachel. She was wanting to know if we were going out to dinner. Donna was coming too.  Sooo, I made it home from the tires, made George his dinner and then they were knocking on the door.  We walked to Pizza Hut from my house. It was quite chilly out, but was nice that we walked!  We had a great time.  I made sure I was in bed by 10:30 last night.  Because today I picked up Linda, and we went to an Antique store that was having some sales.  We spent quite a bit of time there. It was fun looking at everything. Even ran into our friend Beth and her Mom. I bought a couple things like a tin watering can, a crock and some oil cans for some make do's.  From there we went to grab a bite to eat.  I promised her a Birthday lunch :)  Her salad was soo colorful. The young waitress took time to really make it look special.

Of course you can't get out of there without having a piece of Birthday cake!  Linda shared it with me.

And now I'm home, trying to get some cleaning done. I was teasing Linda all day. I don't want to go home, because then I have to clean lol.  But I guess someone has to do it.  It has been a non stop few days, but very enjoyable!  I think tomorrow after church it will be my rest time.  Before you know it, Monday morning will be here.

Well, back to cleaning!  Hope you all are enjoying your weekend ~~~
