Passing through Christmas Card Town (Elkhorn WI) this morning as a snowstorm reminded me of the snowstorm in my script Christmas Card Town that I wrote after spending last Christmas in Elkhorn. #christmas #scriptsky

Every year my extended family gathers for Thanksgiving, we have a fun craft project. This year everyone painted welcome mats. I need to get photos of everyone’s mats. Right now I have poor photos of mine (the rather Prophetic Let it Snow) and my niece’s gnomes. #ChristmasCrafts #FamilyFun

Yeah, the house is a mess. I'll clean this weekend. But I wanted to warp the loom so I can try to make a Christmas tartan table runner (inspired by the throw in the second photo). #RiggidHeddleWeaving

They're happy to oblige with more photos from the weekend. Yes. Sadie SAT on Stanley and he didn't care. #FreelanceFriends #FreelancePets

Sadie and Doggie Daisy share a birthday. (We know it's Daisy's actual birthday and we know Sadie was born roughly the same time the same year.) And here they're recovering from their 10th birthday party. Yes, Stanley was a guest.

My #ThirdPageThursday is a flashback to my first attempt at a Christmas script. Yes. It involves yarn, knitting, and lots and lots of Santa hats. #Scriptsky

Sadie & her cousin Daisy were both born around this time of year, but Sadie was a stray we don't know her real birthday. Daisy kindly offered to share her 11/8 birthday with Sadie. This year, they turned 10 and had a party! Doggie Stanley was there, too! Reese gave the girls Frosty Paws.

Sadie gets my vote for Best Costume: Prettiest Girl in the World. I told her she didn’t need the kerchief, but she wanted to dress up for Halloween.
I think seeing the folks around the corner setting up their scary clown display put her in the Halloween mood. 🤣

This time I made the slow-rise no-knead bread using bread flour. It's cooling. Almost ready to try.

A picture of a picture Clooney gave me Christmas. Sitting in the chair his first puppy pictures were taken.

I'm a knitter this week too! Just finished the baby blanket (will photograph after I block it) and started a cute little baby sweater.... this is just the front and shoulders. #FreelanceFriends

Sadie just reminded me to show proof that she IS a cuddle dog - at least not that it's chilly out.

Sadie says hi, #FreelanceFriends! She's been helping me knit a baby blanket for our friend's baby who's due in two months.

Great minds! I made one of those "What do I have that will work together" kinds of soups to go with the bread. #FreelanceFriends

Oh! This explains a lot. I thought I'd attach a recent photo of Sadie, but this is two weeks old - it was her lack of enthusiasm at coming home for her 10-day doggie vacation, Sadie must be a bit peeved that I haven't taken her photo enough lately. #freelancepets #FreelanceFriends

Things are starting to level out. Still struggling to get fully back into work mode, but a lack of pending invoices is starting to motivate me! And I recently cast on a fun new knitting project - already nearly half way done, but this was Sunday. #FreelanceFriends

Oh yeah. Introductions: I'm Paula. This week I'm a writer, researcher, scriptwriter, reader, note-giver, sister, auntie, friend, and scheduler. All while being at Doggie Sadie's beck and call.

First pattern repeat completed on Baby Girl Ito’s blanket. The baby is due in under three months and I need to ship it to Japan, so I better knit fast! (Hoping to add a baby sweater too.)
