‘Cause the heels and the toes had not a stitch there.

Happy 4th to all! They are calling for rain here today and it sure does look like it will. My poor, weed infested, lawn does need a good drink.

Evening all! I hope you all had a wonderful Easter. Mine was rather quiet at home which was a good thing because it gave me a chance to relax. Since Friday, I had been back-n-forth to the hospital to see my friend Donna who has had a set back with the cancer. So while she [...]

Hi Everyone! Just thought I would share a couple more goodies that came in the mail. I was window shopping the other day on ebay and found 3 skeins of Noro Kureyon that I thought I would get and stash for doing a booga bag someday. I love the colors. Oh and I found the [...]

Why is it that when you get older, every “part” in your whole body either breaks down, won’t move, or hurts like the dickens. Suddenly, it dawned on me this morning… so let’s play “Operation”.
