Who's life's a marathon?

Thanks for all of the face painting comments. I like face painting a lot. My momster did leave a faint pink mask on my skin. I guess ten straight hours of wearing dark purple will do that. It's gone now, though. I only use face paint, or makeup. I paint quite a few faces in the summer, at the Relay for Life. We do that fund-raising thing for cancer in August.

So, my blogless friend Cindy called me last night and said "You have to see this new blog I found. It's great." She told me the name of it, but I couldn't find it, at all. So I told her to email me a link, and it's her brand spankin' new blog! She tricked me! Good job, girl!! Go say hello, then come back here. I can't wait to read funny stories about dog grooming, and knitting when she gets a chance. It ought to be good!

No pics. Sorry. I did finish another (that makes two) Christmas gift. The person it's for might see this, though, so no pic til later. I promise I'll show it right after I gift it, next month. Next month? Holey Moley! There was a Christmas movie on tv last night. Can you believe that?

I have been on this computer helping my sis do some stuff all morning, and I have to go catch up on the housework. Yuck. But then, I'm going to knit on the pinwheel blanket. I should do my scarf, too, cuz it's getting really cold here by the lake.

Hope you all are staying warm!

You are really doing well on Christmas knitting - makes me feel sort of bad since I'm not doing any!

A girl I met at a festival who painted faces (she was amazing at it) told me that the trick is to use Avon's Liquid Glove ( I think that's what its called.. with silicone?) underneath the makeup as a base.. it washes right off then. The silicone in the lotion makes a barrier so that you don't get 'red face'.. hope that helps.

If it's cold here I KNOW it must be cold up there towards the top of the mitten. I have my woolies out and have been wearing them to work. Everyone looks at me like I have three heads but I don't care, I don't like to be cold!.....and I like my woolies ;-)
Sounds weird but to get stains off your skin try cigarette ash it's an old moldy hairdressers trick to get dye off from around the hairline. It works.

I've not don't a lick (should I say stitch) of knitting for Christmas - not sure I will this year. Glad the color went from your face in the end :)

Stay warm yourself, I'm sure it's colder for you.
