Good Morning and Happy Sunday! The sun is out, the birds are chirping and it's already too hot today. At least it won't get to 100* like it did a couple of weeks ago. Last week! Serra and I received the newly ordered glasses much sooner than expected. I am very happy that she is wearing hers. As for me you wouldn't think that a .25 change in focus and magnification in a bifocal would make that much difference but it does. Yes I wear bifocals, it doesn't make me old it means I'm blind. The girls have also fallen into the Diamond Dotz craze. It's the cooler way to cross stitch as you place small plastic gems on a...
Good Morning and Happy Sunday! I am loving the cooler weather today. After last week's heat wave I was beginning to wonder if the entire summer was going to be that hot. While yesterday's rainstorms did cancel the races that we were planning to go to last night I did love the sounds and the scent it created. Last week! What have we been up to? Serra has been busting out her summer school class. What would have taken ninety minutes five days a week over nine weeks during school and kept her out of a class she wants to take over the next three years has been reduced to four six hour days. Work is due tomorrow and she...
Good Morning and Happy Sunday! I am hoping that things are finally cooling off here for a bit in my little corner of the Fort. This week has been a toasty one and I avoided the air conditioner as much as I could. The forecast says that it's not going to be as hot this week so that helps. What did we do this week? The big events were a couple of birthdays. We celebrated Daddy and Amanda with Chinese food and their own special desserts, apple pie and sponge cake. We also had a great time at the races last night. As for crafts I have finished the initial portion of the six ounce spindle project with fiber from...
Good Morning and Happy Sunday! So far the morning has been cool but it's going to get hot all together to soon today for my taste. Looks like even higher temperatures this coming week so it might be time to break down and turn the air on. This past week! I still working on the run of bookmarks with Flynn. I figure that I will have 15 available at the Art in the Park event in August. These are fairly easy to work on while watching our new addiction, The Great Pottery Throwdown. I love getting to see artists work and create and Keith who is one of the judges is just adorable. We are into the semi-finals for season...
Good Morning and Happy Sunday! Things are looking pretty quiet out my window so far today. My big hope is that the temperatures don't get crazy, it's only June! Personally I would prefer to still be curled up in bed this morning. There are times when having a fairly precise body clock is annoying. What did we do this past week? In some regards it was pretty lazy. Serra's knee has flared up again so as much as it annoyed her she was on the sofa with it up on pillows to get the swelling to go away. Amanda and I have watched a ton of sports and she's hoping that her Cubs get rid of the injury bug and...
