Today it's windy, stormy day, with sunshine but that won't stop me from having fun with my first blog post.
Today, I woke rearing to go and finish my felted wall hanging before my friend came to visit. That plus having to vacuum and clean the bathroom. I have been working on a large abstract hanging for a lot of hours. I turned it every which way but up!! I did get it done and just have to put it under the felting machine now to stamp it all in place. Once my hubby is better ( fractured spine) he can build me some frames, shadow boxes and I can get on to the next project.
Then I am on my 236th baby cap for new borns. I found out "they" like the square ones with a pom pom on each corner. Sooooo I'm hand knitting a few of those too.
I have to tell everyone in the world that I lost 11 pounds this past 10 days. Wow!! What an accomplishment. My siblings, many, are so proud of me and I always tell too soon, so I need to be careful and keep it off. Any ideas??? I have been too heavy, I think, to wear high heels with my Gloria Vanderbilt jeans. So that is my goal. I am 5 feet 11 inches and since I wasn't able too grow 6 inches, It came to me that I need to lose a few pounds.
My retirement days have been the best of my life. Get up when I feel like it. (Tell friends not to call before 9 am) eat, when I am hungry and read and sleep whenever I like. I am one of those special people that wakes at 2:30am and especially during a full moon, and read or work till 5am. Then my doc gave me some help and wow, does that ever make a difference. Now I have enough energy to paint a barn, plus
knit, sew, felt and paint. I love to do it all. Being a Gemini, I do like variety and my hands always busy!
My first, not last, blog was fun and exciting. You will definitely hear more from me soon.
Live, Love and Laugh!
