Took another quick cleaning break…I just need to organize the pile beside my chair in the living room.\u00a0 I was using a Christmas tree basket but I think it’s time to move into spring so I found some stackable boxes with teapots.\u00a0 Maybe I can use them as holding bins.\u00a0 I’m sure there’s some organizational guru out there who could tell me exactly how to handle this but I like figuring out a system on my own.<\/p>\n

I went looking for a crochet pattern for chair pads.\u00a0 I have wooden country looking kitchen chairs that I refinished some time ago.\u00a0 I painted the legs and left the tops natural wood.\u00a0 They could use another coat of paint and I had chair pads but seem to have lost one of the set of four.\u00a0 It occurred to me that crocheting pads would be pretty easy.\u00a0 I’m working on a tea cozy right now.\u00a0 I’m making it in a neutral cotton just to see how it works out and then I’m going to make one\u00a0 for a friend.\u00a0 I discovered that March is National Crochet Month<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I have been crocheting up a storm for myself and mostly for charity.\u00a0 So, now I’ll crochet happy knowing that I’m joining lots of other people.\u00a0 I find crocheting to be the perfect relaxing pass time.\u00a0 I tune into FoodTV or something on PBS and just let the pattern unfold.\u00a0 So, Have a Happy National Crochet Month!<\/p>\n

I was in the midst of writing when I got the call from our weekend visitors.\u00a0 Stuck on 95 so we’ll meet tomorrow morning.\u00a0 I’m going grocery shopping then.\u00a0 But first a visit to the store website to enter my grocery list.\u00a0 Then it organizes everything by aisle.\u00a0 What a great use of the web!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
