I'm restless - again - i have this kinda nervous energy that thinks it's above mothering and cooking and cleaning.
So i kinda did nothing today - but sat in my head- fidgeting.
Waiting for the world to change.
The breaks came in the form of smiles. The sunshine wrapped their faces in a glow i couldn't ignore sometimes... but really - i haven't been around much today.
The highlight came in the form of a package. Handspun yarn in brilliant colours.
I don't knit all that much better than when i first started. The kids though, they say Mummy can i have a scarf in rainbow? In my favourite colour yellow! Are you making me one mum?
And i toss aside the reject shop wool i got for 2 bucks and looks it-
And i got something amazing.
Coz even if at the end - the product is crappy - the material is still what it is- and it will be something from me - for them- i can give them the other stuff coz they won't care... or i can give them these - one of a kind. Handspun, hand knitted. Sunshine, grass and rainbows.
Yes, i do spend my money on weird shit.
;)
