Creator of oodles of crochet and machine knitted items. Also delving into resin casting. The rest of the time I tend to animals and love my husband.

@morningmuzing @alexgibneyfilm FTR I’ve seen Durand up close - a sci-fi con and he looks nothing like Musk. Also, my hubby is 6’ and I’m 5’6”… when I wear my 3-4” heels and stand next to him, it looks like that pic. Just putting this out there.

@morningmuzing @alexgibneyfilm If sh'e wearing 3" or more heels, it tracks just fine. Just saying.

I made a couple of chocolate pakes today. They smell yummy!

These are what I’m working on atm. 2 fun granny square blankets. #crochet #grannysquares

This is becoming popular on my Etsy site. So resin and yarn seem to be all over the place.😁

I've been off the socials for a few weeks dealing with home stuff. I'm slowly picking back up and have missed you all. I hope you are all doing well. I've been crocheting during this time and will have some new stuff to show off soon.

@femmefict Business offices.

[Renée Kelly @kellysgal]

Busily making longer lasting shopping bags. My husband goes out of his way to not use anything I’ve made for the house (kitchen and bathroom cloths, mesh laundry bags, bowl cozies so as to not burn fingers, and some lovely ice cream cozies to keep your hands warm while inhaling a pint of sin). Show me stuff you created for your home and nobody will use them. 😄

My Etsy shop has been noticed and I'm getting orders (finally). However, I had to decline one order and change my shipping rules (US and Canada only). Shipping to EU costs a stupid amount. If anyone knows of a shipping company that doesn't charge $50+ per shipment, please let me know. Anyway, I've finished an Ozzy the Owl and am completing a set of raspberry pink over the knee socks to ship this coming Monday. I also need to get my resin on for cute koi/goldfish.

I’m almost 60 and I’m taking care of my husband who is dealing with mini strokes in his brain. With fibro, as you know, it’s hard to just get out of bed. I’m trying to just muscle through it as my spouse needs the care. If you ever just want to talk I’m here. I’m even open to voice chatting. It’s hard and it helps to just vent.

@MadQueenStorm I’m dealing with arthritis as well. I’m an avid crocheter (trying to sell my stuff) and I’m trying so many things to get past the pain. My husband deals with neuropathy. That is such a bitch to deal with. I sincerely hope you feel better soon. Lots of hope out to you!

@MadQueenStorm Er in wishing not I wishing.

[Renée Kelly @kellysgal]

@MadQueenStorm I commiserate. Fibromyalgia gives me days of massive irritability combined with a bunch of odd pain issues. I’m not religious but I do believe I wishing better energy to others. Sending as much as I can your way.

Here's my gorgeous Leeloo after her grooming. Monty couldn't be groomed as he has a small wound on his back that is open (due to his proclivity to playing in blackberry vines). He'll be getting his beauty on in about 2 weeks. Something new I discovered about Leeloo is she likes watching dogs on TV. #westies #dogs

[Renée Kelly @kellysgal]

It's grooming day for Leeloo and Monty - pix to come later. Hubby and I are then going to a notary public to sign paperwork that will get his pension started. All that will be left to tackle is getting us both on SSD. Then...we're contemplating selling our house and moving to a smaller home east of the mountains. A house that has a lot of space before you see your neighbor. Oh, and that has a massive detached garage for all our hobbies😂

Pods, hammocks, and Cookie the #ferret. #crochet

[Renée Kelly @kellysgal]

I crocheted a little hanging pod for our ferrets. Next up? A new hammock in the same color. #crochet #ferrets #pink

[Renée Kelly @kellysgal]

@MadQueenStorm I'm trying to come up with a pattern for a Star Trek thing for my husband. It hasn't been done before so this should be interesting.

[Renée Kelly @kellysgal]

Cute #gecko I made for hubby. #crochet

[Renée Kelly @kellysgal]

@MadQueenStorm Thanks😁
