Creativity derailed....

by the FLU!!!! x 4!!! We have all had the stomach flu in it's various forms starting last Saturday. The spouse is still getting through the aches, and I break a sweat folding laundry... let alone carrying it upstairs. So consequently there is a LOT of clean laundry in the basement right now. My apologies to anyone who is knocking on the front door and sees a partially dressed person streaking toward the basement in search of clean clothes.
Fortunately I had to get the Halloween costumes completed for Miss E's harvest festival last week... otherwise we would have to get creative with toilet paper and duct tape. I've been wanting to do a photo session with the offspring but in between the vomiting and other bodily fluids, I didn't want to risk permanently staining the costumes... so tomorrow I'll snap some shots of the little hobgoblins and post them.
For now, I'm holding down the couch and working ahead on some Christmas projects. We have several little dancers this year... (not telling exactly what is on these double points... but you knitters can probably figure it out)...




When I start to loose focus, I can always go to Second Life... there's a great pumpkin hunt going on in there right now with lots of free clothes and other goodies for your avatar... or maybe I'll just take a nap.
This is sleeping next to me right now...


for some reason I start to get sleepy when I watch her for too long.
