About
Hiya, I'm a 40ish single mum to 3 kids, 2 kid-in-laws & a cat...
I was taught by my mum how to knit when I was 4 years old cos I was a pain in the proverbials...lol!! I was known as the WHY? kid and drove my mum mental until one day she said, "Here you go, love,...here's some needles and a ball of wool, mummy's going to show you how to knit..."
Since then, I've picked up crocheting, sewing, jewellery-making, and many other bits and pieces...
I stumbled onto this site through something else and absolutely LOVE it!!! It helps get all the crafty stuff out of my head and onto paper or wool or fabric or ingredients or beads or anything else...
I've been on this site for quite a while now, I've had some life troubles for the last few years ( who hasn't??) but hopefully, I'm getting back on track with all my crafty stuff...yay!!
New year, New place, New name!!

I can draw them too myself but i'm too insecure.LOL
stupid of us. i hope the fitting was okay.
ooooh i was bad when i called the firm at first they didn't wanted to come to help me and i was very angry so they asked the boy that had worked here too he was already gone , and because i was furious i was not nice to him either.-S but he came and he saw what was wrong the painter had unplugged the door, and he didn't think of it so he was angry on the painter and told me that.
i have appolized to him, but he didn't like me anymore.LOL
but i could bought my feed for this week. and i was glad.
and to of holding my meds and then.... i had till today a pj weekend.LOL
i always want to do more, but it always turned out the other way. or i wanted to much. all about my jumping brains or i'm still forgotten that i have problems with my body.?
i think it's both.
but...
You're right i din't feel good about that salesman too , so i had called and written some other dealers and later on i got a message from the man last week and he didn't go further , it wasn't a challenge but it was a problem, that is so sad when people couldn't see the solution and challenge but only the black problem.-S
One of them called me and must sorting things out before he make an appointment and then he will call me and come over with his chairs.
like that.
and you can bought you're own fabric and send it to them and they make the seating of it.like the idea, no more pimping of jet her self.LOL
but mine is super cool. only i'm still having problems with my computers.-S
We didn't have rain it is her too dry so i have heard that they will forbidden to drainaged the outside plants, of grass and big gardens.
we will see, i'm mostly inside now, only wolfje not she was sunday almost falling down. I had made my balcony with Gerard catsafe but she had found a little hole and she had noticed her neigbour cat of the third flour and she hang out to see her better.
it felt i've my heart stoped, stupid wolfje. so later on she didn't may sit out i had to fix it first, but it was still dark then i had shut the windows a nd door Muis and i are having haye fever.
so all the tiny things to make it beareable are welcome.
yesterday in all the heat i have fixed the problem she wasn't glad she was sitting in front of it, sooo pitty.LOL
later on she lay in the shadow
i'm only outside to do my smelly crafts LOL

i think i'm stucked again at my house this weekend.-S
but i will try to late it fixed this day.
Gerard was just with me he had punished again Wolfje she is always bad behaving when he is with me, she loves all the attention so he picked her up to th e balcony and then she cried lout there .LOL

i had mentioned to Gerard that she smell after his after s have. Not m;y fave smell.LOL he had to laught about it.
i have pimped the wheelchair but i have again problem to opload pictures -S and i had thought i will make a link but i can't go to the provider he don't reconize me so i must fixed that too.
but most people love the new look it is just like me.LOL

And i'm saving them too for Sheila. LOL

i'm looking for a new replacement still for my little chair.
i had a salesman yesterday with a chair, but he didn't know to much i 'm more commen to this technical terms so i think i don't know for sure i 've i dare to order a new chair of that dealer.
so next week i must search for new dealers.
i like to find my own chair, it is just like buying shoes they m ust fit perfectly with my body but to for my daily things.
and of course it must have a awesome colour.LOL
And i had an accident with running water all over the kitschen floor so i found a lot of jars with i want to use just now to make of them snowballs in a jar. and more of that.
I had bought a bunch of bad figures so after pimping them they will go in there..LOL

I hope he don't have to much pain. and that it healed very fast.
i was a little sad and furious.the neurologic don't do nothing i kwew this already but i had hoped on better news. its going worse. He only told me to go to the revalidation center, but that a year later when its my turn there. so i told that, and he didn't listen I hate him, its always the same with him. he don't listen and i'm trying to tell how seriously bad it is and he only told me yes to bad i know and understand that but i do nothing for you.
so i had bought to much crafting suplies. LOL to comfort myself a little bit and i had bought a boring filling for my notebook and its a very nice shop they know me very well so it thought i will change it, and they said you're sooooo right you're sooo colourfull this doens't is you at all.LOL so i could buy the colour filling after all.
i have put it on my notebook , and its looking great.LOL
I must make major descisions but all the organisations don't do their job great, so i must tell the whole time, please will you wait a little longer.
and the good news i have heard that the organisation that had to give my community advice of what kind of suplies i need, said you're right the chair has to be replaced but she told me too, they don't have too do this. so i'm waiting just for a year for my replacement.grrrr. but i'm behaving like a well raised girl , i'm polite and try to be patiencend. but it soooos trange this is a rich country and its sooo hard to get your suplies to join the normal live.

CO + K User
When i had to stay in Londen for a month for my study, we liked the brave english Kiddo's of yours.
So well raised, so differend from the kiddo's on our schools.!
so we said the whole time, i' ll adpoted one of those..LOL
but mayby we saw only the better schools at that moment?
I don't know but they were sooooo quit and nice and kind and well behaving in the museon, awesome, when i see dutch kiddo's in museon here its not so pleasent at all.
but okay.... i try to avoitd those class trips of them.LOL
I'm trying to clean my stuf that stood in the walking closet and had set in the working room and living room and kitchen to bring it back there.
Because they had to put away there of a leak in the hotwater boiler and i had to have a new meter-S
But after they had finishing their job i got the whiplash so after more then 6 weeks waiting for help , i thought yesterday okay i must give it a try by myself, because other wize i will be in the same situation after a half year.LOL
Its colder so they ladys let me sleep somemore hours, so kind of them?!!!LOL
I'm always try to be positieve, because when i'm become a crumpy old lady nobody will join me and will lhelp me, and its not fun for myself. So why not take it positively and make jokes and smile a lot.
And its my fave sport to try out what i still can or think what i can use to do my things a little bit longer, The damaging in my neck is progressive, so i think its my job.LOL
I try to go for the quality of live and not for the quantity, thats helping me a lot, Yesterday i have maked a drawing of a bad sad girl in a beautiful spring envirement with the title Carpe diem, she has plucked all ready a flower herselfs;-D
I will make this day one more. it makes m e happy;-D
Hope you having a nice day on your job and the children to on school, much love and hugs and kisses;-D
hope you didn't were to late, about the computer and kiddo's my sis having the same problems, now they have spoken in a chedule personal times of all the family pesons. Its working much better.
My sis is a teacher so she had need it too for her job and her social live, but her youngster were always chatting and gaming, so she couldn't reach anymore of her friends..LOL
Poor little sis of mine, she is only 4 years younger than i'm.LOL
I love that, of being her big sister, because i'm tall but because i'm a wheelie everybody is thinking that i'm short and then i'm a child.
But the last one is about imagebuilding.-S
so when i'm 84 and she is 80 she is still my little sis.LOL
but now she looks much taller then i'm.
i love her! she was when i was a kiddo my daugther, my mom had to much problems to care of the others so i was of the whole family the mom.-S
Thats why we are so close.
My md adviced me to go to the economic therapist , because the whiplash is still not over, its all about having those stupid allready damaging in my neck and my to nearly spinal marow canal.
but now i can't go out to bumpy for me, i try it all the time, but ... i think i must be patiencend.
Allways when i try to watch a good movie my friend Wouter has problems, -S Yesterday the same. his partner will leave the house with her own kiddo's but she begans to get crazy.
Her childs aren't normal kids, so they are very difficult in their behaviours, and she always leave them alone with Wouter, she is using him as their nanny-S
Yesterday Wouter and the oldest boy had a disagreement of rules, and Wouter picked him up and set him on the hall, and he told his mom that he was abused, and without thinking she called the police.
Poor Wauter thought o my gosh they come to get me and put my in jail. They knew already of her first hubby that the childs are very very difficult so after talking with all the persons alone and together they give wouter his agree about what was happened.
It getting there every week worse, i don't get it.
She was very nice always, only she felt in love with an other hubby with is still married-S
i think thats why she is so strange behaving.?
or thats she is getting mad because of her own history with her own parents. Aweful to hear and see.
Poor kiddo's its there seccond time that she has to leave from someone they are fond of.
so i didn't see the movie at all.
After the call, i had problems with to eased down myself, so i had spend a lot of hours of slowing down to go to bed.LOL
And of course it was 6 hours in the morning when i was waking up by my ladys.-S
they are now fitting to become the best part of the couch.LOL
And i have finished the little figures of my project, now the rest of it.
I will make small toppers with you can set down in the house or on top of a cake. You will see it , later, i will make a tute.
And i'm try to work on my own art work. its will be making me smile. I'm working at the piggy thats is thinking that he is a punk piggy. LOL
i have made allready the beginning of his cloths , but it must be much tougher the look. so .... i must add things on it.
Gerard has seen it a small beginning and he liked it,
Gerard is very importend for me, we are no friends, but we are okay with that, i'm his wife friend. but we like each other very much , something like fond of each other . We have chosen this because i must work with Gerard, and when we're friends that will don't work anymore.
but sometimes its difficult because i'm his wifes friend. but its always coming okay. He is my adhd coach.
Thats why i'm so jumpy, i'm having jumping brains.LOL
not always very pleasant , because i 'm always tired out and everybody thinks that i'm having much energy, that i haven't
and i 'm making to much jokes of all the problems, so nobody takes my health problems to seriously. -S
but its all to blame on myself. i love to work and try this out.
Hey i must go on my work too. hope you had a very good day and with some fun.;-D
much kisses and hugs too for the whole family.;-D
but they allways are very slow with their payment.
so i have the new one almost Yeaaaaah.
Now only the other one though, but... i've got a visited on friday at my house . sooo. They don't like to give me the raplacement for my little chair , they told me they will look for rebuilding my appartment so that it become more driveable, but thats not the solution, Gerard is coming then too and will give me support.
I need that, thy are often awefull people i've they must pay those things out their own pockets.
Thats nice all your kiddo's at home and in pjee's I'm too. so i'm doing your pjee club.LOL
I have a better day today, so i try to do some more work. I had to do too much administrative things-D
but i have almost finished that too and do too things of crafting in betwee.LOL
I'm waiting on the call of my md, so we can think about what i need for help to be better again, ;-D
she is very friendly , we like each other tooo much.LOL
we have the same proffesion , she is an artist too. so when she comes at my home, we always talk about our artwork and not about illness.LOL
like that, hey have a funny cheerful day with the kiddo's , and much hugs love and of course kisses;-D
so that why i must laugh about it, i have just ask you a lot , and you had allready answer this.
funny, i don't know but i'm read first the last old mail and go to the newest and so on. so that not allways very smart.
Gerard told that he always look what is the most important one and jumpt to that one, but then is don't read them all, and i forgot the others totally.LOL
You'r hubby is super , i wish i had some like yours too.LOL
I dind't sleep to well, but thats commen for me, i have problems with sore when i sleeps so i have a special air matras for those bedsores, but still not so comfortable, i'm to thinny and i've you don't move in bed (i can't do it like others, I must be waked and put my legs with my arms , i'm a wheelie ;-D but that okay.
but my furry friends wakes me everymorning to early, they are then hungry and they know that i'm not longer sleeping, so they jumped on me without a sound and try to play with me, so when i woke really i see next to my face all of their toys.LOL
Thats better that your Alysia is well again, and about the projects i still have the same , so don't be shy, i try to see i've i see them, so you will certainly have my support.LOL
hey have a fun lovely sunday and a great fun week;-D much love and kisses and hugs from me;-D

and the fave of it.
Gerard is one of my persons that have to help me, and he don't see a word when i'm working on something but i can see on his face when he don't like it, so i thought whats wrong with it, and it was all of the heavenly colour.
When i change that and something more and i was finished almost he said wooow Jet thats awesome.
Huuh??? and i told him the story of his face, and he must laught about it too.
its a boring grey weather day. so its again a pjee day for me, how are your daughter, still ill. i h ope not.! give her a big hug from me to get well.;-D

She thought yesterday that she could fly, she was running to hard so she could'nt take the corner on her shelfs nearby the ceiling.LOL
she didn't hurt her self, but she was really flaber gasted.

hey have a nice fun day and i like it a lot that we are now friends, i will first try to add those pictures from the piggy on cok and later i will make when it doens't work out a link.
he looks very heavenly.LOL When i had painted him i was grieving at the moment and then i always use bright to strong colours, to become that strong feeling again, i was forgotten that totallly, so it looks not a angel anymore, so after much other colours it became the soft look i was searching for. LOL
I don't know what heavenly must look like but i think its must be soft.LOL
stranges things of thinking of.;-D
I like bright colours always, i weare them too. it makes my more noticable , because i'm a wheely and the others will only see my wheels not me, LOL
So when i weare bright colours and be an expressive girl they can't look away of me .LOL Smart though?!!!
i'm okay with my life on wheels, is not always fun , but it has his handy and fun time too. Only i don't mentioning this at loud, because nobody like that;-D
Silly but thats okay too. He have a fun day, so i'm still everyday online, but not with projects. were are you working on now? much XO's love and greetings.;-D

And thats great that you give your wings such a special places, He 's soooo beautifull. I m happy that you told me that.
And... thanks iof the words of the feathers of mine, your right too.
I try always to do something else to get the right look and not the commen way, it makes it not special. I have almost finished the angelpiggybag.
I had painted his body blue, but after all , it was tooo blue, not heavenly.LOL
so i had to change it, and i had to change it more, because all the other colours didn't matched the light soft blue one.:LOL
Its always the same, change one thing isn''t working, you must always change everything.=S
but now i think he is okay, i must now finishing the insde and make it neat.
And then .... i think he is ready for his job.LOL
I'm working at the same time to an other one,the opposite of the angel.
