That's still longer than I think I could devote to a project! But I love the earth tones of this blanket! Very nice.

Wait a minute, here we go. Here's the blanket. It's folded in half. It's pretty big. Big enough to share or to take a nap with.

She didn't get her hair done at Woolworths, she got it done at a Beauty college. I can't remember the name of it but it's no longer in business now, I believe. The blanket pic isn't there any more since we lost the ability to upload pictures.

I took breaks. That's why it took so long! lol. Thank you. We have a dark green carpet in this room, two green lamps and a purple lamp and the brown sofas. I wanted to pick those colors up along with picking up colors in the repeated yarn. You can't tell it from the picture, but it's a multicolor yarn.

I stayed in pjs until 6. Then I changed, went to the gym for an hour and a half, came home, showered, and put new pjs on. But. I also cleaned the kitchen, did laundry, and read a book. Oh and watched two movies.

If you or your spouse is a Vet, check out this link. They offer really cheap tickets to local events and concerts. I have done a lot of cool stuff through them.
