Crafts



Cuddly

Okay I like to do crafts. I'm not real good but perhaps I just need practice. But I am doing more paper crafts lately. Not like scrapbooking but I made a Christmas banner that I'm hoping to take a picture of to include in my Christmas card. Also doing a craft for my sister in law for Christmas. Hopefully it works out. I also am doing 2 crafts for other sister in laws. I just need to DO THEM instead of cuddle with the critters and watch TV.

I do have a knitting project going on also. Just a scarf....for myself. It's hot pink. =) In my defense though I gave away my last hot pink scarf to a gal I worked with that was moving away. It was my favorite so I have to replace it.

Also, I have a baby blanket to make. I bought one giant thing of yarn so I wouldn't have to worry about dye lots if I needed more. But I think I'm going to try and do a checkered pattern with it. Maaaannn I think that means my scarf is going to get put on hold since this one has a time frame.

Anyway, that's all. Bowling tonight. I had a great game the last time which just means my handicap is going to be different... I have mixed feelings about it.

BOWLING

So I'm not so good and the ladies I bowl with all know this but they just do it for fun anyway.
But the other day...okay it's been some time but I have been meaning to post this...I did awesome. Not because of my score but because of the splits

Game 1 was rough, but hey it was the first game. So lets just skip that one.

Game 2 I scored 128 add in my handicap then it was 229. More impressive was the split I got. The 4 pin, 3 pin, and 6 pin were all up and I nailed it.

Game 3 wasn't as good as a score. I had 104. Add handicap it makes it a 205 (as you can see my handicap is high...). In my defense though at about the 7th frame the bowling alley was taken over by about 75 Depauw football players. We should have been done but in game 1 we had some issues with our lane so we were behind. Anyway these guys don't know much about bowling courtesy and they were loud and walking between us and crap. Anyway. The splits I got --
The 3, 6, and 8 pin were up and I got it. And later the 5 and the 7 were still up and I got it!!! After the guys had shown up I did have another split pop up but I didn't get it. I blame them and another gal, Evelyn that had watched me make sure I get all the others. On the last one she didn't watch because she was glaring at one of the guys who had walked in my lane behind me. But hey still impressive.

I bowl again tonight but I don't think it will be that great. I'm pretty tired. However, it will be the first game where I get to bowl with my own ball!! I just got it drilled. I'm worried that the holes aren't big enough but they are the experts.

Have a good one,
Michelle
