Pay It Forward

My friend and fellow yarn enthusiast, Rosie, has invited me to be a part of a movement that was set forth by a movie. I haven't seen a movie in theater for 4 years or more- and rarely watch them on the tv- but love this idea and want to be a part of it....
I will blatantly BORROW ( ahem-perhaps plagiarize is the more proper word! lol )
from her blog to tell the rest.....

Have you seen the movie "Pay it Forward"?

Haley Joel Osment's character comes up with a simple idea to change the world. Give three good deeds, the person who receives it must pay it forward.

An easy thing but so difficult.

Somebody has taken this idea and turned it into presents. It's fun to give gifts. I read about it in Rosie's blog. You can be a part of this if you promise:

-------------------------------
“I will send a handmade gift to the first three people who leave a comment on my blog requesting to join this PIF exchange. I don’t know what that gift will be yet and you may not receive it tomorrow or next week… but you will receive it within 365 days, that is my promise! The only thing you have to do in return is pay it forward by making the same promise on your blog.”
-----------------------------------
You can be a part of this, just leave a comment here, and I will reply so you can can email me your address.

So that's it really! :)
Let's have fun!

Hope you are well!

Nearly Halloween!

( This is RJB's way of saying "Happy Halloween"! Little foamie letters I cut out years ago that we found and we laid them out properly last night- this morning I found them like this in the front room with a patiently waiting RJB nearby waiting for my delight at how smart he is!! )

It's nearly haunting time again!

Here is a neat link you should try for some jack-o-lantern fun!

A real pumpkin ( the only one that survived last year despite the drought-it's small but it's ours! LOL! ) was carved last night- fun was had - here are a few pics to prove it: :)

Here is the finished item- the next day ( today) - after being lit and enjoyed for an hour or so last night before retiring for bed.

It's a bummer that daylight savings doesn't hold out for one more week here- so that it gets darker that little bit earlier for Halloween. Ah well.......

On the fibre front-I *did* get some spinning done over the weekend- and have "softly spoken" all spun and washed and ready to be photographed.....just haven't had the time to get to it. Will aim for later today.

Hope you are well!

Me want COOKIE!!

You Are Cookie Monster

Misunderstood as a primal monster, you're a true hedonist with a huge sweet tooth. You are usually feeling: Hungry. Cookies are preferred, but you'll eat anything if cookies aren't around. You are famous for: Your slightly crazy eyes and usual way of speaking How you life your life: In the moment. "Me want COOKIE!"
