I am having a great time!!

A   Randon  Spin

I come before you to stand behind you to tell you something I know nothing about, (Today)!
The sun is shining on Puget Sound and that always helps!  I have finished that sweater vest, finally and it looks good and fits.  The yarn was hard to work on but I made some creative changes!!

I am still losing weight and oh does that feel good.  My waist and my thighs can  feel it.  Soon  you won't be able to see me standing sideways!!

I made a batch of blueberry muffins for my hubby, he needed some attention and sweets to munch on.
If you don't have a micro-oven that has convection oven on it........please check it out and beg, steal or borrow to get one.  They are a delight to use and oh so effecient to use.

I have just today put some of my hand made items on eBay to sell, hoping I will get more coverage.  I was a member about 8-9 years ago and they have sure made it easier to apply and sell.  Everything is well spelled out and explained.  I am going to town on that market.

Our local Wells Fargo Bank has hung one of my felted wall hangings up in their lobby.  I am so proud.
As I was telling my 13 yr, old grandson about my hanging.  He topped me with, one of his art pieces has been chosen to hang in an Anchorage store for months.  Will I ever get ahead of him?  I doubt it.

These are my beautiful rhoddies that are blooming now.  Otherwise my theme is purple flowers.  I am working on learning more plant names, but don't know what I should forget in order to remember them!!


To show you that I can't sit without keeping my hands busy, I have been knitting baby caps for those babies in Anchorage.  So Cute??


No more  thoughts for  today.  Soooooooo
take care... Live, Love and Laugh!!

One of those Days!!

I have been pushing the wrong buttons and have lost a couple of blogs but I'll try again. Yes

terday was a sunny day and while I waited to hear from my off-spring, I knit two cute, very colorful baby caps. The house is so cleared of clutter right now I hate to mess it up.

I have been finishing my felted wall hangings with driftwood, sparkles and bling! I am very satified with them and I hope there will be others that will be too. I signed and named them but I haven't decided on my trade name as of yet. They put out a list of popular girls' names and Sophia is the second most popular!! Would my grandma Sophie ever like that!! If anyone has a clever idea, let me know.

I also finished up a wool felted purse, three times it took to felt. I made a heavy lining with three solid, large pockets and put a closure on it. This one I like how the design came out because of the yarn. The colors are bright and cheerful.

The flowers are all coming out and the grass is growing like mad. I pick up my new glasses this week. I am trying out the transition lens and anxious to see how I like them. My reading will really pick up then.

Sister, Margaret, told me about a book called, Mother, which is mostly pictures. If anyone knows of how I can get hold of one, let me know. It is humorous, comical and a riot to look at. Not much text in it.

I am going to try to build my own website, as soon as I can and have the nerves to follow through so if you don't hear from me, I am working on that. Meanwhile, I will take it easy and this photo tells it all. My pics are out of place, but you get the idea!!!???

Take care and Live, Love and Laugh.
