Clearly An Intervention Needs To Be Staged....

-
This week has been a 'Stop The Madness, For G*d's Sake Stop The Madness'  kind of week on so many fronts...

Governor Kim Jong Walker's megalomaniac  'No Compromise Or Negotiation And If You Don't Agree With My Plan I'll Start Using Extortion' style of non-democratic, political madness. STOP IT!


The Misery for Entertainment's Sake Mongers- Things aren't grim enough in our Capitol right now?  This historical action by the people of Wisconsin isn't newsy enough for you? You have to spread 'riot' news even though there aren't any?  STOP IT!

Snow, Ice, Freezing Rain, More Snow..STOP IT!!! (Note: THREE exclaimation points).

Incessant Whining-You're tired? You're bored? You're uninspired? You chipped a nail? You're mired in your own gloom? Guess what? You're a victim of your own making. STOP IT!

I'm included in the last group myself. I'm feeling a bit tether-less, homeless and at loose ends. Today for the first time, I found myself seriously considering moving back East. Decided to pull myself up by the boot straps and  started steps to decide what I really want to do and the what's involved in actually doing it!
No more useless dithering and  wallowing!

STOP IT!

Stop It! Wisconsin can't lose you. What, you would leave us here alone with Kim Jong Walker???!!?? ( Ain't he somethin'!) Blogging way away in Maine would seem so far. Please stay.

It definitely would be Wisconsin's loss, but I certainly understand your maybe wanting to be back in Maine with family. Whatever you decide, you have my support.

Hell-o my dear friend :) Go with what your heart tells you. Your mother and grandmother mean the world to you (as I know). Don't live with regrets for not moving back East. You will thank youself someday. I, personally, could not be that far away from my family. Give it some thought. God Bless. I will keep you in my prayers while you are deciding. No regrets Chick (((hugs)))

Yes, search your heart and then do what you need to do to make it happen.

I take back my statement about you staying in WI. After last night's proceedings at the capital I wouldn't blame you if you packed up and left this weekend,running back to the welcoming arms of family. I agree with the rest...go with your heart (but continue your wonderful blog).

Just got a comment on my last blog entry reminding me that Monday is actually the last day of November, not today. So I have TWO more entries to complete NaBloPoMo; today and TOMORROW. How sad would that have been...to blow the whole thing because I can't read a calendar? I just figured, hey, December is coming next week, might's well start it out first thing on Monday! This here is a picture of my BubberKev and I at Thanksgiving. We're taking a momentary break from strangling each other to goof at the camera. Our mamma must be so proud! Back to online Christmas shopping! Have a great Sunday evening!

Lots of New Tangle Pattern Ideas!

I've been setting aside tangles that I've created in a special file in my cabinet. When I put one in last night, I realized that I had quite a stockpile and that I hadn't put only of them out there for others to try...so here they all are. I'm not good at stepouts or at naming. Most of them are named after placed in Maine...just because. I'd love to see any tangles that you've done that use any of these patterns! Have fun and tangle on!

Wicked Wonderful Weekend

 I had a really nice weekend. I didn't expect to since I had both my Covid booster and my flu shot  on Thursday afternoon. My first of the original two Covid shots put me under the weather for about 24 hours...but I just got a headache from this one and that's about it. And since I get headaches anyway, who knows if it was from the shots or not? At any rate, I was prepared for a stay-at-home-lay-about weekend.  Life is what happens when you are making other plans.  Since I decided Friday Night that I guess I wasn't going to be incapacitated after all, I arranged to go with friend, Donna to Baraboo to the Arts and Crafts Festival. It was really nice and way bigger than I thought it would be. Baraboo is where Ringling Brothers started so there were also circus-y things all over town. So much fun! After the Fair we went to lunch at a little breakfast place and then headed to one of my fav spots, Pewett's Nest, to see the gorge and waterfall. Then we stopped at Sky Hi Ap...
