Just to give you a sense of how out of it I've been, last night, after tying the watermelon, I forgot to put away my grizzly cape. This morning, I found it shredded under the couch... thanks to my crooked little dog.
I have a canoe to look at this week which is exciting. We are going to be having guest bloggers very soon at Flies of Fancy, which is rock & roll. And we are going to be having a giveaway next week so keep an eye out for that!
Your sick tying chick!
