In our embroidery, and in life, perspective really is everything. We had quite a bit of rain last night and I have just spent an hour plus in the yard with my pickup stick getting up the limbs, pine cones and other detritus of last evening. When I first
UPDATED: Sugartoes has been ailing, but I'm hoping he's turned the corner. Night before last, not seeing he had two attack spots on his back side, I gave him his dose of flea medication. He went very limp and crawled into the back corner of the closet

Just spent four hours removing Windows Accelerator Pro malware from my computer. Felt like it was touch and go the whole time. I'm hopeful the problem is completely solved. If you got this one from an embroidery site, as I did, it has a little "helpf
Scissors note - I hope Dennis checks in on this entry. I got my latest pair of scissors "free" from the hospital when I had my knee surgery. All they used them for was to cut the "sock" that covered my incision. When I was packing up to go home the
Housework, ugh. There comes a day when you can't put it off any longer. Just cleaned out my freezer and found the makings of a fine ham bone soup. Actually there was a total of seven ham bones! Also found my long lost ice bag for my knee, at the botto
Buttonholes! I just spent, well, way too much time, learning how to make buttonholes on my sewing machine. Of course, this meant being buried in the manual awhile - review how to thread the machine, how to make bobbins, what the buttonhole foot looks li
Thanks to all you great Cuties for my many birthday wishes. It was a quiet day alone except for a call from younger son, so you cheered me a lot. Been busy insuring and tagging my new Fabric and Notions Toter by Toyota! (Gift to myself.)
Just came down from my first foray upstairs to the sewing room since knee surgery. 18 steps up, 36 steps down (seemed like it). Had a great stitchout of a horse on denim shirt, then made a quick pocket hankie to match the colors I used -- actually, I pul
Thanks Miss Veronica, for the precious crawling baby girl on this week's Wednesday freebie. She is great!
Downpour rain here tonight. It went from full daylight to dark like night in 4-5 minutes and has now rained at least 2 inches in about 15 minutes! Any daylilies that hadn't gotten the "bloom now" message are now preparing to bloom! So happy. I love
UPDATED. Sugartoes is grounded to the house. I went to the neighborhood yard sale this morning and a neighbor said, oh you live on the pond that had the baby bear yesterday! They are supposedly trying to decide what to do about removing him, as we are co
Six weeks, new knee. I'm still working on some issues in Physical Therapy, but just got a good progress report from doctor. Stepped v-e-r-y carefully down into the daylily garden to see today's blooms, which were outstanding. However, we have had a h
May the 4th be with you. A special hi to Sue!
Jeans font A is currently in number one position on page one of Amazing. This is the only letter I missed in this alphabet. May I have some votes? I would be thrilled to complete this one as it is so usable and attractive. Thanks in advance.
