Prince Harry on the Jumbotron at Olympic closing ceremonies sing and whistle to the Bright Side of Life with the Monty Python guy. Love it a million times.
WHAT I DID
Crafts, I did crafts today. First up, a bracelet and necklace.
I’ve been experimenting with salt dough, molding it and finding different textures, just mostly playing, this little bracelet is one of the results.
I picked up a leaf on my walk yesterday and used it sort of like a stamp. I think it turned out pretty cool. I don’t think Tiffany’s has anything to worry about, but I like it.
I finally got the Wingspan and Summer Flies shawlette’s blocked. Both turned out very nicely.

THE GRANDS
Babymama has to go back to work tomorrow, Babydiva will be with her nanny and we’ll all breathe a little easier when it’s this time tomorrow. I remember when I had to go back to work after being on maternity leave, it was sooooo difficult to tear myself away from my baby the first morning. I expect Babymama and Babydiva to be totally worn out tomorrow evening. Sending them loving thoughts. Tomorrow’s going to be a long one for them.
SO HOW ‘BOUT THOSE OLYMPICS?
Great games, got a little overdosed on women’s beach volleyball, thanks to Mr. Iknead. How come the guys wore tanks and baggy shorts and the women wore bikinis? Would Mr. Iknead have been glued to the TV if the guys wore what the swimmers wore and the girls wore what the guys wore? Maybe I’m wrong, but I’m just sayin….. Seriously, I’m so proud of all the athletes, wherever they were from, all deserved a medal. London, indeed, did it right.
