Thou Shalt Have Fun...

Crafting

Today I woke up scared. Really scared.

I thought my blog might get deleted. Why?
Because I  haven't written a post for years.

Years...

That makes me sound so old.
And I've been feeling old.

Yesterday I played Tennis with Andrew. He's not very good. Ok, to be honest, and on this blog we are always honest, I'm not very good either. We did get the ball  over the net a few times and even had some returns, but now my body hurts in ways that it hasn't before.
Blah!
Getting old  is no fun.

On a different note, I should try and catch up on what the Dietrich clan is up to.

This year will be my third year of doing crafts. I'm not sure if I will be doing it again, but now that it's been  a while since I've crafted, it doesn't seem so bad.

Have I forgotten the hours and hour sitting down in the cold basement with the spiders?

Must have.
This is 2017 craft table


This is 2018 craft table. 
Later I added a large tree shaped box that I added hooks to, but I don't have a picture of that.
 Just a Marco Polo.
You can see that each year I improve.



My Friend Stef wanted snowman that stood up and played instruments.
Each of the snowmen represent a member of her family.
It was fun to make.

These last two pictures are of my large angels, or tree toppers.
People seem to like them.

To tell you the truth, it always surprises me when people buy my stuff.
And then I feel guilty that they're spending their money on junk. 

It's like I have buyers guilt for other people.



Hmm, now that I'm making a post, I'm coming up with new ideas...
Maybe I will do it for one more year.

But not until these sore muscles heal.

Math is important.

Fights are better with sound

We do a lot of Taekwondo in our family.
Lot's and lots Bruce Lee sound impressions.



Even during peaceful calm moments there always seems to be a "wahhhhhh" sound going on.

Hannah's weapon form.

 For your safety she doesn't do the battle yells or the big slaps and hits on the ground. You know it's Sunday and we like to keep things Holy on that day. 
Also she's in a skirt.




I looked up fighting sounds on the internet. Andrew and Natalie had a great time taking turns doing awesome moves with cool sounds.

Our downstairs neighbors are going to be so happy when we move out.
