Alone

I am alone yet I am not lonely. I value my solitude. Unfortunately that also means I have to buy my own choccies on Valentines Day. I love ME.

A friend gave me a cute little bobbin lace dragon fly she made for christmas. Not sure what to do with it, though I had thought of incorporating it into an embroidery. The only problem being that I can't find it - its been put somewhere safe and we all know what 'safe' means in this house - 'safe' never to be seen again. Looking for it would entail cleaning out cupboards. ooooh, just looked out the window and there is a fire truck outside and a fireman sat in the middle of the road, how strange. Hang on while I go have a sticky beak............ Nope, I have no idea what they are up to. They've just driven off.

Back to the dragonfly - my friend does the most esquisite (Brain drain here on my spelling) bobbin lace so I want to use it for something special. She has offered to teach me but I know its too fiddly and I wouldn't be able to get my head (or my hands) around it.

  1. I have 'safe' places also. Just wish I could remember where some of them are :)

I love hearing what you have to say, at least I know then that I am not waffling along all on my own. Is there anybody out there............
