Finally playing along

I have been tagged by Schotzy from Wings of Eages to list 5 things I love.

I was tagged over a year and a half ago but I bookmarked it and am FINALLY playing along!
  1. I love that I managed to program the universal remote we got ages ago and haven't figured out how to use - till now! :)
  2. remote

  3. I love that my hubby wants to sell a game system and a ton of games before he gets more.
  4. I love that I found a pattern to crochet a cozy for my new compact camera.

    (I was looking on Etsy to buy a cute case, but then I remembered something from my good friend's blog that struck a cord... "Since I’m at at home momma, I think it’s important for me to contribute to our family by making our single income stretch out as far as it can." - so even if it's only saving $30-something from a camera cozy when you already spent $200-something on the new camera... it's a start!!! :)

    The pattern I found was even on another promising blog - Slugs on the Refrigerator - I altered the pattern a bit since I wanted to use the cozy for a camera not an iphone :) but it was simple and perfect! My ring of single crochets was only 15 stitches, to make it less wide. I didn't complete as many rows, so I could make it shorter...

    I also made my closure tab thinner and longer :)...

    I added a snap under the button since my button was too big to make a hole for...

    And I love it!!!)... that's right - things I love - back to the game......

  5. I love that I can order from Close to my Heart on a Tuesday and it comes Friday that SAME week! I ordered 4 times since January and all the packages were shipped to me within the same week!!! :)
  6. I love that I have a husband who is capable of unconditional love.


And finally many moons later I say...

TAG! YOU'RE IT!!! :)....

Ooooh, fun! Thanks for tagging me. I'll work on my list :) I love your cozy. I don't venture farther than scarfs because I don't know how to follow patterns. LOL!
