BYC Crochet Club **ARCHIVE THREAD** NEW THREAD OPENED

Hi everyone,
I'm having a hard time keeping up with this thread. Every time I get on here, three or four more pages have been added.

I've been busy with one of my sister's visiting this past week. She recently had a stroke and it's just not the same anymore. We have always been close but there is a part of her "essence" missing since the stroke. I can't explain it but it makes me sad. But I am glad she was able to spend time here with me.

Maw, I put the squares in the mail to you yesterday. I will send the return postage separately because I closed and wrapped the package then realized I had not included the return postage. Is it ok if I send a check? If not, let me know.

Karan, It's a coincidence, but I just went to a local nursery and purchased two of the chinese pepper plants for another sister. I had never seen that kind of pepper plant but I found them pretty easily. They are really pretty and unique. I found some wild pepper plants from my grandparent's homestead up here a month ago and I am trying to keep them alive. The chickens love the leaves and will strip a plant bare in a short period of time. The peppers are small and almost round and are really hot.

I can't name you separately, but it has been a bright spot in my day when my sister goes to bed and I can get on BYC and read about everyone else's goings on. I love your smileys, your crown Scoot, the spiders, well, just about everything.

Anyway, welcome newbies. You picked a good corner to hook on!

Good night all,
Beverly
 
Hugs for your sister Leep, so sorry

Bonnie!!!! Sooooooooo good to hear from you!!!! Those alpacas are so dang popular, I can't believe how everyone talks about them!!! At the race track this guy that pits next to us has a wife that talks about them non-stop, she needs to get her some and quit coveting them so much!!! They wool is so soft though and alpaca yarn is high buck, I'm sure you could make somemoney off that if you can make it into yarn after the spring shearing. Good luck on selling your house..can you rent it instead?

Shanah that shopping is good therapy no matter what, lol!!...especially yarn shopping!!! Works like a charm for me!!!! I spend hours in Michaels in the yarn section and feel like I've won a prize if they have some I like on sale!!! I also like to buy it from non-smokers on ebay, or from Joann's or Herrschners or MaryMaxim and get it in the mail..that is fun too..the box in the mail full of yarn!!! We sure have it bad don't we!!! I am way beyond having a stash..I am clearly in the yarn "hoarder" category!!!!

..not ready to detox either..pretty happy with the addiction myself, lol!

The sun is trying to come up and I am just about finished with my 1st cup. I feel abit more rested.

Shanah I am soo sorry about your hens
hugs.gif
I hope that will be the last loss you have for a long while.
fl.gif
Are you planning to get some more hens? or maybe some pullets? to replace them?

Leepsy I also am sorry to hear of your sister's stroke,
hugs.gif
for you
hugs.gif
for her. THat is a very diffacult health condition to manage.
hugs.gif
She probably still has her spiecal "essence" it is just very diffacult for her to bring it forward, But it is wonderful you are able to visit with her and she can enjoy time spent with you. That means soo much to them. I have a very dear friend whom is 10 years younger than I and she has had 3 strokes and 2 operations on her brain in the areas where the anureizum (sp?) had caused the trouble. She now has many freqenent (sp?) flyer miles with the local Air Evac. DH is an EMT and when they get paged for her house he has Air Evac put on stand by. Thank goodness she is still with us and as yet can still manage to walk a bit and still talk, she studders now but still does OK.

Mmm, shopping! I get to do more today, but not the fun stuff like yarn shopping unless I sneak over to Joanns or Michaels. What's with the names, hey? Warring crafters or something decided to open stores?

Love the spiders, SE. I had never heard the story until I read it on the other swap. Such a sweet story!

hugs.gif
to all struggling with family, self things and general whatevers...it's the whatevers that get you.

I am soooo tired today...oh, darn, I just remembered I have to clean the coop today....
sickbyc.gif
Our girls decided their waterer had a great roost because of its handle on top, and several of them tried it and kept teeter-tottering the waterer which ended up flooding the entire corner of the coop. grrrrrr....
rant.gif
Our waterer now has a traffic cone on the top of it. heh. Karan, more will be peeping in our house over the winter. Chicks will be ordered soon...can't wait for fuzzy butts! (they can wear kilts too, right?
wink.png
)

well more later. I just needed a BYC fix...
Morning all. The big smileys will have to be left to the queen today.

Good Morning to everyone else!!

I am trying to get laundry done, and pack, and get 2 horses ready, and the house and the barn clean, so I won't be hooking much today..... We leave for Kentucky on Saturday morning!!!

Any hookers in the Hot Springs area?? I need a place to keep 2 horses overnight...

SE, those spiders are so pretty! I had never seen one! I ordered yarn from Herrshner's for Christmas present projects, since Hobby Lobby did not carry it...Can't wait to get that box!!

Have a great day, gotta go find my escaped dogs...

Karan, from the pics of your DH, I think he will look great in a kilt. Good luck finding fabric. If I can find the camera and a clear space of floor, I will have Mark model his for ya all.

P.S. we should have a Hookers Chickenstock in some sort of central area (if there is one) that we could maybe all get to, or the place that has the most of us and the others plan for road trips/travel. (wheee...my mind is just a wandering today)
