Enthusiastic crochetoholic

The ramblings of an enthusiastic crocheter ( and knitter) also about my everyday life, animals, shopping, whinges and whines. A woman being dragged kicking and screaming into old age. Yes I dye my hair blonde and listen to modern music - why not?

About Me

enthusiastic crochetoholic: Manchester, North West, United Kingdom; Slighty dotty crochetoholic who has now retired but still has all her own faculties and teeth. Great grandma to 2 gorgeous girls. Single domestic goddess (poetic licence on the the domestic goddess bit) would dearly love to meet my handsome prince one day but rapidly running out of time and inclination for that bit. I have two dodgy knees and had knee replacement surgery on my right knee in September. It hasn't been quite the success that I hoped for but I am hoping that it will be all right in the end. My body may be housebound but my mind runs free. Thank goodness for my crochet (and knitting) to try to keep me sane! My son does still say that I am a dingbat but now I am older I can blame it all on old age ecentricity and poor memory.
