I’m always a little thoughtful around my birthday and today I’m 44 years old.  What, if anything, have I learned on this 44 year journey?  What do I know for sure?  What can I pass on to my children that will help them grow to be good people?
Listen.  Listen so you hear what is being said, not just the words, but the […]

I am having so much trouble getting a move on this morning; I think I have a weird kind of scrapbook-hangover.  I got to bed after midnight on both Friday and Saturday midnights and up at 7am on both mornings.  We literally scrapped from about 8am each day, stopping for about half an hour for lunch […]

For several years now I have been addicted to Genealogy and I have spent hours and hours at the computer searching for family details, you know the kind, births deaths and marriages.  About a year ago I found that I had gone back as many generations as the Internet would allow and I had loads […]

PHOTOCOPIERS: These are female, because once turned off; it takes a while to warm them up again.  They are an […]

First up today I need to do a little housekeeping, in my last post I mentioned that I purchased some yarn from eBay. I said the yarn was a  “wool silk blend”, or so I thought, sadly the yarn is neither “wool” nor “silk”!  While leaving feedback on my purchase I noticed someone had commented […]

I’m not sure who’s to blame but I have a new addiction … it’s wool!  Ever since I crocheted the ripple blanket I have found myself looking for something to do in the evenings, my fingers are literally twitching.  I have even found myself on the net browsing woolly websites, joing woolly swaps. 
Then last […]
