The day started off cloudy but I am feeling fit as a fiddle. It is my day to shop for frames and backings for my felt hangings. I realize now that my creative efforts don't match the ready made frames. I am waiting for my hubby to be able to work in the shop. I could do it but I don't want to seem too sure and take over his hobby. I found one at Office Depot and then Chris at Home Depot helped me again with finding the right wood. So I am slowly finishing the projects that are on the tables, couch and fireplace hearth. I can't wait to start another felted project.
I did notice while out shopping at many stores, that if one smiles and greets people, do they ever respond.
I visited with a couple from B. C. who were taking a break from Canada and shopping. The ladies had a wonderful sense of humor and told me " everything " they knew. I haven't been to Canada yet but it is on my list for the near future. Then I met a 4 month baby and was sad that I don't have more tiny ones to rock and sing to. One lady, from Canada again, on the run to the restroom, said she was looking for a dress to wear to a wedding and she found two!! She was on to the casino for the rest of the day since her shopping went so quickly. On and on it went so give it a try someday. It will amuse you!!
I called my 13 year old grandson in Anchorage for help in shopping for a camera. Wow! Have cameras ever come a long way. So fast that the ones they have on line are sold out and you must go on to the next layer. At least, Alex helped me with the lingo, so I didn't act too stupid. He will be impressed with my purchase.
Now that I can take more pictures of the art I have on Etsy........under Kiblysshoppe. Take a look of my wide variety of items. I love to do them all. Right now it is the felting and knitting that are winning.
Since my hubby is under the weather for strong work, I cut down and packed up a row of lilacs. The men in the neighborhood were surprised I was using a small power saw and hauling them to the brush barrel for pickup on Monday. It is so fun to show off to "big, strong men".
All things accounted for I am having a productive day. I need to put my new wood through the joiner and planer, glue them together and they will be ready to hang tomorrow. Then I will dye some more roving for a new project. The knitting of the Cha Cha yarn is going well, though slowly. I save it for the evening hours when I can sit and relax.
So I will leave you for now with......Live, Love and Laugh.
