Wide Awake and Counting Scarves
It's the 21st of December at 11:36pm and I can't sleep. I've been sorting my scarves. Yes, really!
They sit in an old wooden box on top of a blue cabinet. I have more. Way too many really. Maybe I'll go count some and see if that will help me fall asleep! One scarf, two scarves, three scarves, four..... good night!

Did it work?
ReplyDeleteThey are pretty things to count!
Merry Christmas, Carole.
No, Lorrie, I was awake for ages! Merry Christmas to you too.
DeleteI have way too many, too, and can never find the one I'm looking for. Yours look very organized; mine were several years ago. Happy sleeping.
ReplyDeleteMine look organized until I need one in a hurry! Thanks, Hallie.
DeleteScarves and so many other collections I could count until the cows come home or the z's set in!
ReplyDeleteNext time I'm going to try sheep because colourful scarves don't help much!
DeleteFlossy recommends sheep... Merry Christmas, Carole! -sus
ReplyDeleteFlossie has a good idea, Sus! Sheep are sooooo cute.
Deleteha ha ha, carole. now there's a thought when mr. insomnia comes a-knockin'. at least they keep the mind in a colourful mode! what a panoply here...
ReplyDeletere you sure they don't rather keep you awake more though???

Counting scarves caused more stimulation than rest, so you are correct Nadine. xo
DeleteI know what you mean.. I also buy too many scarves... we have only one neck! but I will find a different polka dot one or striped one or taupe one.. and have to have it. But I have never gotten up in the middle of the night to count them.
ReplyDeletehappy new year!
Donna, I've tied two or even three scarves together to make one wrapping. It was very thick but looked pretty sharp! Don't bother counting them though if you're tired.
DeleteYou're so funny! I think scarves are like collecting art work.
ReplyDeleteSome scarves are pieces of artwork!
DeleteVery impressive. I only organize when I manage to finish a project, which isn't very often! By the way, I referenced your circle journal on my new blog at http://multicoloredsnippets.blogspot.com/2012/12/stacked-squares.html
ReplyDeleteHope some readers came to admire it! And Merry Christmas!
best, nadia
Hi Nadia, I'll check out new blog. Thanks.
DeleteThis made me smile. I too have way too many scarves! And they are not organized at all. Maybe in the new year! I hope you got some sleep after all this scarf organising!
ReplyDeleteNo sleep from counting but lots of ideas of colour combinations for paintings!
DeleteHappy Holidays Carolexxoo
ReplyDeleteThanks, Annamaria!
DeleteHaha, I have two drawers full of scarves, and then there are scarves all over the house. Better than sheep, I think!
