Over the past week while I've been suffering through the flu and having lots of delusional thoughts, I've decided I spend too much time on the puter reading blogs and writing about things that I didn't start out to blather on about. This was supposed to be a rughooking blog. So then I either have to be on stage with rughooking excitement every week, or.......wander off into other areas where I didn't plan to go. Lately the rughooking news has been ZILCH! NADA! THE BIG ZERO!!! And I have no idea when I will get back to it.
That said, I will probably be updating my blog only about once a month with whatever foolishness I've been up to. I need to quit writing about what I'm GOING to do and get to some DOING IT!!! Feeling that I need to have a hooked piece on the go to hold show and tell once a week is blocking me from lots of other things I want to try.
And I'm running out of brilliant ideas!

First, I would love to win your giveaway. But more importantly, I hope you put a post up more than once a month. I began writing a blog and reading other blogs to learn more about rug hooking, but I write more about everyday ramblings than hooking! And I enjoy reading about everyone else's ramblings too!

That's great Pat, I'm going to do a giveaway tomorrow too.
ReplyDeleteKim you always win, not fair. LOL
oh boy, oh boy, oh boy. Would love a chance to win Pat :). I sure hope you post more than once a month. But I understand. It is hard to keep up. See you on Thursday!!
ReplyDeleteI'll miss reading your posts but certainly understand how life 'works' sometimes. I love that handwoven towel - beautiful color!
ReplyDeleteFirst, if I should continue my lucky winning streak ( I hope I hope) how could I choose with such lovely prizes!!
ReplyDeleteSecond, you are one of my most favorite blogs! I shall miss your posts and hope that after a break for awhile you will feel like posting more! I I know that at times it feels like a burden to keep coming up with ideas. But then like life itself something happens or we get an idea that feels blog worthy. For the record, I love reading the ramblings and goings on in peoples lives or their opinions about things etc. Even if it's just a picture and a sentence or two. Thank-you Pat for all you have done to reach this milestone of 99 posts! An accomplishment to be celebrated for sure! I am gonna miss you dearly! Hugs and warmer weather are on their way to you!!

I enjoy your ramblings.. rug hooking or otherwise... it's nice to see and learn about what's going on in places other than where I live! :-) I've always admired your weaving too! So, please enter me in your drawing!
ReplyDeletePat, a post once a month is not enough! I look at your post first thing every morning. My coffee will not be the same without your post!! Your talents are numerous and wonderful. I love your giveaways. Please don't stop blogging - we all need you. (Moments in Time)
ReplyDeleteIf time permits I think you should post more than once a month.. of course it is a personal decision but your blogging will be missed.
ReplyDeleteThanks for a chance at your giveaway.
Hope you're feeling better!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI love your weavings!!!! You are so talented!!! Did you make the basket too?
How about a few comments each day on what you have accomplished hooking, weaving, whatever? Your blog is a giveaway gift, too!! You inspire me to get back with my boxes of yarns and threads.
ReplyDeletePat,
ReplyDeleteI do hope you are feeling healthy!
I will miss your ramblings, too. It doesn't have to be a blog about hooking ~ we all love reading about your life. I feel as if I know you because of your "ramblings". You are one of the most talented ladies in blogland!!!
I'd be honored to be entered in to your give-away...winning would be an added bonus.
Pug hugs :)

Hi , I found your blog today and I am a follower now. I was searching for rughooking blogs when I found yours. I love crafting and I'm a "self learner person", rughooking is my new goal for this year. Hope you can share tutorials for begginers that I can use. Oh, almost forgot, please include my name in your awesome giveaway, I need to win this. LOL. Hugs, Evelyn
