Thoughts for today....
I really thought I'd have some fun Sunday while stuck inside while it rained/sleeted/iced and blew outside.
My husband thought I should be certified as nuts.
But the weather was nasty, the news sucked, and the day was so dreary that I needed something to be uplifting.
Thus the Toilet Paper soldiers!
I then set up both patterns of the face masks I'd printed off line and cut out some fabric.
I made the two versions and decided that I liked the feeling of the one version much better than the other.
The flatter of the two versions was better for me. I made 3 masks total. When I go shopping next week [3 weeks between shopping for items] I will wear one as I did last time. I keep the bandanna one in my backpack as a just in case mask.
This face mask was for fun to wear with my Skunk Hat. It is very thin. However, I thought it was fun just to put on and take a selfie.
I haven't sewn anything since we were getting ready for our remodeling in 2014. So it was nice to see that I hadn't forgotten how to do it.
I may even do some of the projects I have all cut out and ready to sew in my kit...that have been sitting around for at least 6 years.
I couldn't help myself then...and got out some scraps of felt....
Well, I made masks for my toys I take out for posting to the Doe Story. Of course ... there is one in every crowd!
I had to think up how to make a mask for a matchbox car!
Oh the toys are not properly 'Socially Distanced' but I had to crowd them in for the photo.
My last thought. Are face masks going to be our 'new' reality for a long time?
No one really knows.
How long can one isolate?
My son says he is lonely.
I am lonely.
I have my husband, my dog, my animals...but I am yearning for that social freedom we used to have.
Meeting someone for coffee.
A hug from a friend.
Human contact. How will it change?
I don't have the answers.

You were having fun again! 4 degrees here this morning. Normal...I don't think that means anything anymore. :(
