It is not how busy you are, but why you are busy —
the bee is praised, the mosquito is swatted.

How doth the little busy Bee
Improve each shining hour,
And gather honey all the day
From ev'ry op'ning flow'r!

excerpt from "Idleness and Mischief" (children's hymn)
Busy as a little bumbler-bee here lately...
working on punch needle ~
and rug hooking...
~ and more rug hooking.
I'll have 2 new cross stitch designs coming soon,
they are being stitched by another little busy-bee friend!
The bees were busy,
and their humming brought pleasant hopes of summer.

Happy Rainy Wednesday to you!
