Witty & Wise Ties, Trivia & Lies
Bow Ties o’ the Day exist because duct tape and I exist. That means they’re made of duct tape, and the crafter was I. I’ve disclosed how inept I am at craft-building, but I decided to give this a shot. The bow part is ridiculously easy to make, which is why I’m able to make these resemble bows. The difficult part is assembling the duct tape neck strap. I’ve followed the instructions. So far, my strap resembles chewed gum, stuck to the underbelly of school desks.
Bow Ties o’ the Day waited for Mom to wake up for photos. I declared today a Pajama Day, but we wanted this to be a formal occasion for Mom’s visit. Thus, we’re bow tied black-tie style. After the selfie was taken, Mom dozed again. I believe Mom’s naps are her practice for her death. We have talked about her death many times. She enjoys life to the hilt, and she doesn’t want to go. But she says she isn’t one bit afraid of dying. 💜
