Whistle while you work

A couple of weeks ago I made the arm rest covers...not a very good picture, in real life the seem to match a little better...how embarrassing, but I'm all about transparency so there you go.
This year I only have one home doing Virtual School. While I entertained thoughts that my days would be freed up considerably to do all sorts of cleaning and crafting it hasn't happened yet. Instead of sitting at the table watching 3 boys struggle to stay focused doing their school work, there is only one...but he too must be watched...

Soooo,while I'm just sitting here... one thing that I have indulged in several times is my old hobby of blog hopping. The other day I found this lovely blog...being the naturally uncontent person that I am, immediately I start wishing that I was as creative and handy, and organized. Being a glutton for punishment, I go to her blog again today, this time seeking out the blogs she enjoys and found this. Beautiful homes, beautiful ladies...not too unlike the ladies listed in my sidebar. Hmmm, that makes me feel better....If I can't be the decorator I want, at least all you do me proud. So I thank you.
I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances.

Thanks for the great compliment. I don't deserve it, but I thank you nonetheless....
I think you're pretty sophisticated, Emily. After all, you have a great name and if my Emily turns out like you, I'll know this madness was all worth it.

I'm sure my mom would attest that I was a little maddening.

Well, I am absolutely jealous over the arm covers! I think it looks lovely!

What fun with blog hopping!
