Crazy, Crazy Times

Been away for quite a while, due to a combination of crazy things happening in my life and, of course, my omnipresent resistance to sitting down and writing about myself. I think I'll skip the craziness of the past several weeks, other than to say the lowlights were things like me getting admitted to the hospital for the first time ever, the death of a family friend, and lots of work on the house.

What inspired me to drop in today, though, was the challenge posted on Stitch-Stirrers. Crochet addict that I am, I just had to support the effort. The current challenge is "Limerick Your Crochet". Here's my attempt:


There once was a gal who'd crochet
All the time: every night, every day
She'd spend all her cash
Happy filling her stash
'Til her husband took her hooks away!

It's not true to life, of course. The Cap'n would never deprive me of my hooks! Still, I had fun coming up with it and I am looking forward to the next challenge.
