Learning more & making friends

     Today wasn't a total lose I did some dishes and fixed pasta for supper, pretty good considering I have a Phlegm Monster in my chest and stayed up all night. The dog was scared because of the wind and sleet that was rattling the house and I was coughing up a lung and blowing my nose so we stayed in the livingroom so as not to wake Bruce. Went to bed at about 7:30 this morning and slept until about 1:00.

    During the night I tried my hand at making an elephant. Here it is, I don't like the nose so I'm going to try again in the next few days. I don't know why but I come up with some of my best ideas in the middle of the night or when I don't feel good.
   My cold from hell is not getting any better and now I know why Rosie calls it a phlem monster when she gets stuffed up. It feels like this goo is stuck and won't go up or down but is also coming out of your nose and making your whole body ache. So today I made a phlegm monster that I can throw, squish and just treat bad!!! I tried to post a pic of it but for some reason my computer isn't cooperating with me right now so I'll post it some other time. I just took some yarn and started making a blob of stitches until it was the size that I liked stuffed it and closed it up , put a face on it and that was that.
   I posted another dragon in my etsy shop today. Still no sales but I'm going to keep plugging along and they will come. I am now following some fellow etsy bloggers and I've done a facebook page for the shop so all I can do now is sit back and wait and keep making more things.
   On a totally different subject it was so pretty out this afternoon when the sun came out for a little while, the trees had ice crystals on them and were making little rainbows and shimmering like diamonds. Days like this are so beautiful except for the roads being dangerous and not being able to go out and enjoy it becauseI'm afaid of falling and breaking some part of me. Why can't we have the beauty of the ice and snow on the trees without the danger of driving or walking? I want the best of both worlds!!!
  I'm slowly learning how to do things on here and on my etsy page as well as I hope in my life. Now to a quiet night of watching tv and working on something,don't know what as I don't have anything started right now.
Goodnight
