Like so many other people, I wake up every morning have coffee, get the kids off to school, have more coffee, and then I log into the cyber world to see what on earth Charlie Sheen has done or said overnight. I find myself uncontrollably drawn to this car crash that is now his life, I follow him on Twitter, and I have Entertainment Tonight bookmarked so that I can see his antics first thing, I am ashamed to admit that I am watching him with this much zeal but it is so amazing that one can hit well below rock bottom and still have people in his corner cheering him on with his "winning" and "tiger blood". These so called friends and goddesses have much to answer for, this man clearly needs help from these people and no amount of drug tests that show he is cleared of illegal drugs will ever convince me that the prescription drugs he is on are benefiting him or that he is clean and sober. The ones I feel sorry for in this whole saga are his children, the only ones that should matter, and clearly they have been swept up into this dysfunctional mess but it is good to see that their mothers are trying to keep them away from all that "winning", there may be some actual decent people in all this.
But enough of all the "winning" I have been so busy this past week that I have hardly had any time at all to pick up my hook. I did get some wonderful news through the week though, a friend has found out she is pregnant, only 5 weeks, but I couldn't help myself, I made her some baby hats. So far I have made three with one more on the go and I will now have to visit my wonderful LYS to find some dreamy baby colours to make a beautiful blanket for her. It was such a coincidence that I had found an old pattern book for a really pretty baby blanket in my nearby Op-shop just a day before she told me, I had been wondering whether to make it to sell or not but now I know that it is perfect for her and her little bundle. I am hoping that this week will be a little slower because I just don't seem to physically be handling it, my pain levels have been a little extreme these past few days and I have had enough of that! So some quiet days are on the list with some hooky goodness, I will try to get some pics of my hats and post them next time, in the meantime happy crafting, baking or what ever it is that makes you happy!
This is the view we get from our evening bike ride, this makes me happy xoxoxoxoxoxoxox
