Home again...........

Yes I have returned from my short trip to Tennessee. We went to attend a 50th anniversary party....... well Neil went and I stayed in the motel sick, sick and sicker. The party was great I understand.....lol. Later Saturday evening I felt fine........like I had not been ill for two days.......very strange. So Sunday we were able to visit with our friends for a bit. We will be returning later in the fall for a couple weeks so at least then we can visit more and golf.
Tomorrow is "The Birthday Book" class....... which of course you could make it any type of book, so if your interested its not to late. Call Paper Tales and sign up.... 586-773-7911.
Have a great summer evening........

Nothing new.........

Boy that's no joke....... I haven't gotten any more books made.....well I have been working on an album that is a gift. But I suppose that doesn't count. I have several ideals running around in my head......just need to get going. I have been working on my basement workshop........ doesn't that sound so impressive? As appose to just the basement......lol. With a lot of help from my friend, Nancy Jo. Thank you, thank you. Not sure how long this is going to take........ seems like forever but will be worth it in the end. RIGHT?
I believe I'm off on a small adventure with Laura tomorrow........ should be fun. I will let you know what happens.
Also the boys might stop by.........they need raspberries. They do eat what they pick and even share once in a while.
Off to watch my favorite tv show....... The Closer.

Wednesday evening.........

I had a very busy day...... the boys came to visit, always fun. The ladies came to stitch, they loved their dessert by the way. Fresh raspberries on ice cream with a little chocolate sauce. YUM!
Also something new....... check out Laura's new shop on Etsy. http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=7574533 ......... she has great flower pins. Then also stop by Paper Tales etsy site........ http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5405843. Happy shopping..............

Happy Wednesday!





Well actually Happy Birthday!...... I finished the Birthday Book and it is at the store. I love the way it turned out. A great gift to yourself or a great friend or family.
The boys are home and outside picking raspberries with Pa. Forrest went right to the cupboard to get the bowls.....everyone has to have his own. Hopefully it will warm up so we can go swimming with the boys. They love the pool. Oh wait.......so do I!
My quilting group/crafting/talking/road trips/ etc. group are coming over today. Wait till they see whats for dessert..........can anyone say raspberries?

JULY.............

Well I survived July 1st! I went with my friends to Pat's Village Miniature store in Dearborn, then a great hamburger at Miller's Bar on Michigan Ave. If you have never been there it is a must stop. GREAT hamburgers. We also went to Catching Fireflies, in Berkley, a funky little gift shop. Then to Quiltcrafters quilt shop, also in Berkley on 12 Mile Road. All in all a very fun day with friends.
Came home to finish sorting buttons (when will I learn to keep my mouth shut?). Glad that is done, I am going to pretend there isn't another bag waiting at the store........LOL
Well off to clean then play.........
