“Melancholy is the happiness of being sad.”
Victor Hugo
Fighting Melancholy today. Fighting these thoughts trying to weave into my day.
I finished the dish cloths, and well, no, I'm not happy with them. Not completely.
I crocheted a double border around the last one I made. That is, I crocheted a single crochet border and then a SCFLO border. (If you don't know what that is, congratulations, I just gave you something to look up on bing, You're welcome!)
Anyway, trying to get over these feelings.
How is your day?

Hopefully your day gets better! I think they look nice, I really like the colors. I've always heard that word but never really knew what it meant.

Thank You. I took a few hours offline and read. It helped me to feel better and gave me ideas for things to try and crochet and sell. I also will list some stamps that were my mothers to try and sell those.

@ScribbledAdNauseum I am so toxic dealing with my current company's flaws.

@Shavkat Oh I understand that all too well. I dealt with a company for 6 and a half years until I had enough and quit.

Toxic because of the people around you?

No, no, no. No melancholy feelings! I hope you feel better today. Why aren't you happy with the dish cloths? I think they look terrific. My day was OK. Same old, same old. Try and have a good day.

Today is better. Yesterday I decided to get offline early and just read, which helped.
I don't like the dishcloths because I think they are.. I've lost my words today. Trying to think of how to phrase this. I guess I don't think they are blocked well.

@LindaOHio Thank You. It could just be a case of the artist not liking their work. My girlfriends think they look nice too.

Put on the sounds of rain and read. Now I am catching up on notifications and will find something on amazon to watch.

Thank You. I folded them in half in this picture so you can't see the issues I have with them.

I seriously need to make food. I have an ADT tech here, that's trying to get palse to work. Oh, and the new Roku I ordered isn't any better than the one I have now. No power or volum keys on the included remote.

Well that's a bummer. I think roku has a promo going on for a free replacement remote. Maybe you could see if that replacement remote would be one with volume keys?

The burgundy is a little brighter in this picture than in reality. It almost looks like a raspberry color, but it's darker in reality.

They are folded in half. I do put fast music on when I dance, but I prefer slow music when I crochet.
These are about 9 inches long.

I didn’t know that this quote was written by Victor Hugo.
The crochet in the photo looks great to me. I like it.
My day is fine. I have edited my video and published it on you tube.
Have a nice Monday. Don’t be so sad. Watch comedy show on you tube.

I am thinking of watching something or reading for awhile to distract me, thank you.
I found this quote on goodreads. I simply searched "Melancholy quotes".

@ScribbledAdNauseum That’s good. I do the same when I feel down.
I see. Goodreads is a good site.
