Work – Silence

I’ve mentioned it a thousand times already, but oh, I love my quiet workdays. Those days when I can tick things off my long to do lists. When I can drink as much coffee as I like (I really should cut back with that strong Italian coffee though, it makes me behave like a Chipmunk….RRRRRRRRR) I’m also following the Decor8 Blogging your Way e-course, which I can really recommend (if you’d consider subscribing). It’s nice to overthink things while sewing or photographing.

The felt house I’m making is the home of my late grandmother and – father. I guess I’m trying to deal with losing them by doing something creative with their home, the only touchable, earthly memory that’s left of my life as a granddaughter. Oh I miss being someone’s granddaughter. So much, that one day I might pick two elderly people off the streets and pronounce them my grandparents (yep, I miss it so much, I’m capable of kidnapping ;-)). I guess all I want to say is: if you still have someone you call your grandfather or -mother, please cherish him or her. Or, if you don’t, give them to me.

Enough (before I break into tears)!
