Today was my last day at my craft group. So, instead of taking along my craft gear, dressing in my paint-stained outfit and smock and taking along something to share, I dressed in a lovely outfit and took along something to share and left my painting gear at home.
Yes! I went there today to socialise, not to paint.
And everyone noticed what I was wearing. One lady complimented me on my lovely skirt and top; and I said I wanted to have a good day off and just hang out for the last day... and she smiled saying that it's good I do keep my good clothes separate from the clothes I use for my paintings and artwork.
But we all brought along a plate and there was so much food we all went back for seconds and had a lovely time just sitting around and chatting about what we were going to do for Christmas, what the Christmas Party was like for the craft group and how our weekend was too.
Before we knew it, two hours has passed and we all packed up and left to go home one by one... not to see each other until next February. Coral and some of the other ladies bid me farewell and told me to take care of myself until next year; and I told them that Mum might be joining us next year too. Coral smiled saying 'the more the merrier'... and I really do hope Mum does, she'd love the social arena of it.
This arvo when I arrived home, I got changed into my painting clothes and sat down at my craft table and worked on a few things before dinner. Then, I worked for an hour and half after dinner until the semi-final of 'Supernatural' came on. Tomorrow, I'll be out for a good part of the day to lunch, but for the rest of the week, I'll get my butt into the craft chair and working hard at my Crafty Pegs.
So, what are your plans for the holidays? Working at your craft like me? Or are you going to take a well-earned break? Until my next post, keep creating!
