Three down, one to go

 I've been hooking a bit this week on the Birds in the Garden rug. I've got three of the birds hooked. Yay!! And I have a plan for the center and the sides. Between Maria and I it's been drawn on it so many times I can hardly make out the final design. I'll just muddle on through. 

I've also realized I don't have enough background to do it all in what you see. I contacted my local ( an hour away) shop and she does not have that specific wool or another I'd considered. So I went through my worm box and will just mix in a bunch of dark colored wools. I think the center will have to be even a different color. I sure hope this works out like I've got planned. 

I've also rearranged my sewing room to accommodate hooking in there. Maybe I'll get more hooking done when I can just leave my mess and start up again another day. When I hook in my living room I really dislike seeing the mess. We shall see, especially as it gets colder. I supplement my heat by burning wood. The living room is usually much warmer. 

This week is Thanksgiving. I have so much to be thankful for. I think being thankful is a choice. You can look for the good in life, or dwell on the not so good. Thanksgiving will be at my house, just a few of us. But life is good. 

Enjoy the holiday. Enjoy those who you are celebrating with.
