Despite my plans, I haven't been doing a lot of crafting lately. Even knitting has taken a backseat. My own headspace has been bad then we had a series of family dramas sort of happen at once that aren't done with. (I am being vague because my life is starting to sound like an episode of Midsommer Murders and it's too much to post here.)
On the bright side, I did figure out a card to make with Lynne Monday, granted it was on the ride over to her house, but we got something done. I got out some coordinating patterned green papers and cut them into 1 inch squares. Then we glued them into a pattern on a goldish yellow card base. I figured it was good brain exercise for her and it could be a card for any occasion she wanted. She turned hers into an Easter card, her son made his a birthday card, and I just added more gold flourishes to mine with the metallic pens I got out for the project. No one really complained about this one, though Lynne is starting to get mean with her personal comments to me. I know she 1) is frustrated with not always understanding the conversation around her & is trying to contribute, 2) not always saying what she means, and 3) is mixing me up with someone else sometimes, but it is starting to get to me a little.
We also know when her surgery date is now. So, I have to come up with 3 more projects between now and then. After that, we'll see how things go.
