This is why I create...

Hello Bloggy Friends, 

Thursday {April 23rd} was a heart-full kind of day 💛

I got to pass out my 21 handmade crochet  Gustavs to my grandson’s class, and seeing their smiles made every stitch worth it.

Little hands, big excitement, and lots of love in every one of those Gustavs🧶👹

This is why I create.

We also got eat lunch with my grandson too.

                                                                                                                                                        

                                                      Heres the whole class with there gustavs. 

Heres an Little clipping of it

                                                     Here's an Pic of my Grandson Helping me Handing them out.

                                            

 But I did eat lunch with my grandson why we were there

                                                                           Today Friday April 24th

                                                                                  My grandson came home from school and told me had an surprise for me. His class made me Thank you cards for making those Gustavs for them. Tears started flowing as I looked at them one by one. 

                                                              

I didn't work on anything else but on those 21 Gustavs until I got them done. 

so now I have other WIPS to finish and a Craft room reorganize and to clean lol

I changed the name to this blog. Im wanting to blog more about Crochet and other things that brings me Joy. so keep an eye on posts on here during the week. I'm gonna start posting more besides Just about Crochet an just  once a week.It really depends what goes on but I really want to blog more.

This week's tune? Hear it here.

1. This song begins with a guy realizing he's home alone. Do you enjoy being all by yourself?
   
   Answer: I'm an Introvert. I love being at home alone.
   
   
2. He watches the sun throwing shadows on the floor. Which room in your home lets in the most sun?
   
   Answer: I would say the side of my house and In front
   
   
3. He sings that he may write a letter to his ex. If you were inspired to send someone a handwritten message, do you have stationery or notecards on hand? What about first-class postage stamps?
   
   Answer: I do have Stationary an some stamps on hand but don't use them much
   
   
4. This week's band, Better Than Ezra, got their start in Baton Rouge. All the members attended LSU and played their first gig at Murphy's, a bar near campus. When you were in your early 20's, where did you and your friends go to socialize?
   
   Answer: When I went out because i've always been an homebody. It was at the mall.
   
   
5. While the band refuses to disclose the origin of their name, many assume the "Ezra" they refer to is poet Ezra Pound. Do you often read poetry?
   
   Answer:Sometimes.
   
   
6. In 1995, when this song was popular, Michael Jordan "unretired" and returned to the Chicago Bulls. Tell us about a decision you wish you could undo.
   Answer: 
   I have to maybe come back to this one

I wanted to share some of my moms crochet work. My mom was my inspiration. she crochet growing up. I got this piece hanging on my wall.

Here's the progress of my bathroom. we got the floors fixed and new tube an toilet is in and the sink..

we still got to fix the new walls and finish the floors .

                                                                         

                                              The old tube that was in this bathroom was made out of cast iron. and was heavy!

                                                This little bird plaque thing was hanging on the wall in the bathroom  when we moved in 20 plus yrs ago. I finally took it down. its from 1967 wow. I love antique stuff.

I love my house. its old and needs lot to be done. but this house holds lots of memories. from when when i was a little girl. from what my grandfather has told me because he grew up in this house. and now I have my own family in this house.

                                                                                                     I hope everyone has an good an safe week!

I hope everyone is doing well. I think or I hope we are driving into warmer weather. I'm getting tired of the cold.
