A fun find and lots of knitting

Ok, I admit it, I am completely hooked on these hats and scarves and knitting. It has been way too addictive for me. It is such almost instant gratification that I cannot put down those knitting needles and looms and I have three and four of them started at once. I have to at least run the sweeper today and do some laundry and there is wool calling me to be felted and penny rug patterns and painting projects and all those beads that I have been picking up for the last three months and throwing on a shelf in my craft room need organized but first just one more hat and scarf and then I'll do something....

This was my fun find in the middle of the chaos of the tree falling on the house. My step daughter bought my old house and when she did we still had three more daughters at home and the house was full to the brim with the "baby" in the attic of our house. (she uses this when she wants pity that we put her in the attic but really she wanted to be there) We had everything extra in storage in the basement and an extra garage so at the time we decided not to empty the attic of my house since it was family there and eventually we would get it done....five and one half years later my "stuff" is still in her attic. When the tree fell, there were only certain ones of us that would perform the acrobatic feats that it took to get to that attic to take the photos of the damage, one being me.

I had the chance to look around a little and found this cookie box that I had painted years ago and forgot all about! It was like getting something brand new. As I prepare my New Years resolutions, that attic is now one of them. I really need to get it cleaned out, my curiousity is peaked. What else have a forgot that I had?
