    1. Thanks, Renee! And I totally understand. For me, itā€™s personal. My mom crocheted but said I couldnā€™t learn (Iā€™m going back many years ago) cause Iā€™m left handed. Oh so frustrating for us both. Whatever. She was wrong.

      It was my mum-in-law who patiently and methodically taught me the basics and then I got completely hooked! Itā€™s my therapy. šŸ˜‰

      Yes, I agree with youā€”many hobbies to take up. And we canā€™t do them all! Iā€™ve tried different crafts (Iā€™m terrible at knitting!) but found Iā€™m a pretty good ā€˜hookerā€™.

      Is there a hobby youā€™ve yet to try that you would like to one day learn?

      So enjoyed a bit of summer Sunday afternoon sunshine and quiet reflection…good for the soul. šŸ’“

      Hope you are also having a great day! Another hurricane heading towards the coastā€”more rain. Will it affect you where you are? šŸ¤—

      1. Iā€™m glad you proved her wrong. You CAN do anything! šŸ’ŖšŸ¼ Cudos to the MIL for her loving patience!…hooker?! šŸ˜† pun intended?
        I would like to learn to paint. And get professional drawing lessons. I can draw a little. I havenā€™t in years.
        Sunshine is always good for the soul! ā˜€ļø
        I hope it doesnā€™t affect us. Iā€™m glad I donā€™t live in FL.

      2. Reneeā€”your words always comfort me. Thank you for your kindness,šŸ™šŸ»
        Hooker. Teehee. The first book I got to learn crochet is called ā€œThe Happy Hookerā€. It is very silly. But….there is some history too. It was the prostitutes who would crochet lace…
        Oh I do hope you learn to paint and draw! I would love to see what your heart creates!
        Another crazy weekā€”goes by a so fast. And here we are again on the Sabbath. I wish everyone would just take a break and rest a bit! Enough with the fighting already! Stop blowing each other up! Do you think humans will ever learn?
        Have a great peaceful weekend, dear friend.šŸ¤—šŸ’“šŸŒ»

    1. Thanks! Wouldnā€™t it be nice, if it could just be this simple? Just wish each other well…
      Hey Iā€™m curious, Charlotteā€”have you read CS. Lewis ā€œOut of the Silent Planetā€ trilogy?

      I do hope you learn from your mom and grandmaā€”super cool to pass it along!

  9. Thatā€™s what I always want to doā€”be a comfort as I have been comforted. You are welcome. Iā€™m glad we both can share in the kindness! šŸ¤—
    Well thereā€™s a new one to meā€”a happy hooker crocheting lace. šŸ¤”šŸ˜†We all need silly things to help us laugh and grow!šŸ™‚
    Maybe one of these days I can learn to draw and paint! My youngest daughter draws on an app on her phone…She is so amazing! She loves anime.

    I donā€™t even know how I got here to Saturday! Where did the week go?! So so busy! I sure could use the break and rest myself! šŸ˜ž
    I have to stay off the news. It will depress me, the things that are happening in our world!
    I donā€™t think humans will ever learn. The evil in this world will make sure of that…but oh one day when I leave this chaos for a home of peaceful bliss! Those kind of humans can have this place then!
    Oh well, c’est la vie!
    Hope you have a great rest of the day!
    Iā€™m about to make a short and sweet post and catch a few winks! Love ya my friend! šŸ’•

    1. I just read your post. Ahhhhh….so lovely so true. Tend to the inner gardenā€”lest the bitter weeds take root.
      Yeah…silly things helpā€”laughter is good medicine for sure. Cool your daughter draws on her phone! Remember when we had to put our finger in the dialā€”and then wait for the dang thing to come back aroundā€”and then you forget what number you just dialed! Ha! The good ole days…
      I wrote a little something about world news and depressionā€”coming full circle with the chaosā€”facing the enemy. Difficult times we are experiencingā€”but I am also very hopeful. More than ever! Yes, let the wicked have their wicked waysā€”itā€™s ok. God knows all about itā€”and just how tough it is to stay strong and not fall into despair. Thatā€™s why we have friendships šŸ™šŸ»
      Love back at ya!šŸ’“
