My Journal

I had a great visit with my cousin and she insisted honestly, she did! ) that we clean up my old sewing room (which was in the basement )  It was a time of enlightenment for me.  I discovered that I have a habit of drawing in books.  There were sure a lot of them.  Some full some not but still quite a few.  So I thought I might share some of what I've done here.


It seems I'm quite addicted to this sort of thing.

Christmas Presents 2012

I just had to brag.  My DD did an amazing thing for me for Christmas.  She gave me some beautiful hand made spoons.  Her uncle-in-law turns and carves them each individually and they are wonderful.  Everytime I am at her house I admire them.  Sooo on a recent visit to her uncle she procured some for me...Yeah, yeah, yeah, I am blessed.



Then my son found this cool egg timer.  It is so cute.
