After The Rain....


RAINBOW is surely to follow.

This week has been dreary and rainy.... on top of that, I woke up really sick the other day. BOOOOO!So, what to do on a rainy day when your sick and have no gumption. A little light crafting in happy colors will surely bring the rainbow inside these dark walls. I took a RAINBOW of colors in nail polishes and painted Freckles, fingers and toes in RAINBOW fashion. She loved it!
They instantly brightened up the room.
We even enjoyed a bowl full of RAINBOW colored candies...Yummy!
I ran a fever all last night...and slept in really late as my fever finally broke. I actually had a little more umph to me this afternoon. We decided since I wasn't fully up to pare that we would do a quiet craft...That way, I can still get my rest and Freckles would have something to do. We pulled out our friendship bracelet making kit our friends gave us...and picked out our colors & went at it.
We sat for a spell this afternoon weaving our threads...It was so nice just to sit together, with a little chit chat in between ( I can't talk much...since I have a bad sore throat). Freckles is already, ready to move on to another bracelet...But I told her she would have to complete this one in order to move on. Sometimes she still has such a short attention span...it must be her artistic self...Artists are known to be a little flighty.

Their coming right along...perhaps we are only 1/4 of the way done...a couple more hours and we should have a bracelet to wear. I am working on a bracelet for her....She is my best buddy after all. (wink)
 
Through the rain and dark clouds that were upon us this week, nothing could stop the sun and the rainbow from coming into our house today! Have a cheerful week ahead.... I gotta get better before the weekend since Gramma & Grampa are coming to take us to the zoo.... Lot's of rest, vitamin C, water,sunshine and RAINBOWS of course!
