      Our Son-in-law is currently undergoing treatment for lymphoma. Although he doesn't make these, fellow artists on UA-cam have made donations of journals, then we auction them off at fundraisers. Each is truly a work of heART! Blessings on your treatment. CancerStinks ! Nik, remember the song from Frozen, and 🎼🎶🎵Let it go!

In one bedroom place, so understand losing things. I know this is an older vid. But i like to yap at ya anyway. Lol and those bulb pins are actually stitch markers for knitting to keep our place in the piece we are making so I have lots of those and I used to make bracelets so I have beads. I'm a happy camper now. Thank you for a very hilarious video. These are fabulously pretty notebooks

    Glad you turned your day around and made something pretty. Enjoyed knitting along to your banter! When you started talking about taxes I laughed. My husband was self-employed most of our son’s childhood so apparently he saw and heard a lot of angst around tax time. One day he said, “I don’t want to grow up! I don’t want to pay taxes!” Lol He did and he does. ;)
