Oh Deer!

Next time we go to Marble Falls or Wimberley we'll try this instead of throwing the food on the ground!

Random stitching

When I look out my backdoor this morning....and lots of mornings lately... this is how it appears!
It's supposed to be 90 degrees here today... good old Gulf Coast!
It's hot and humid... but a pleasant 74 inside!
Yesterday afternoon Melinda
brought me roses.
She and I understand the importance
of flowers
at
home
just
for us
after
an
event!
I've been randomly stitching lately....
have a Silver Bella swap due .....
here are peeks
at what I'm doing....
I feel accountable to you!
I've started so many and not sure what I'll end up sending...
That one above is quite a tease, isn't it? I'll show you ...eventually...
This one below is one I drew off....
based on my favorite tea towel at Anthropologie.
I also started a bunch of Halloween ATCs...... just to get me going!
I'll show you finished stuff soon....
I hope!

Just a few things...

Did you know that a Calla Lily will last a good while?
And did you know they are not a lily?
Look it up!
Those are the ones I carried at the wedding on Saturday!!!!
Who knew!

Anna sent me the plaque you see above.....got it this week.......thus the Halloween decorations have begun. You know I never put any Halloween stuff up once the kids were out of the house. I MIGHT drag out the stuffed witch on October 31...but it was really just something for ME to enjoy and then put away. However.... now I have a blog and have all kinds of reasons to decorate. One must have things to put on one's blog afterall! Anyway....thank you, Anna. She is one of my sweetest real life and blogging friends that loves Halloween. She needs to meet my sister's husband!

And....then there is Emily. Emily is one of those rare treasures you find in your online life. We met on Christian Paper Artists and you've seen the goodies she sent me just a few posts ago. She doesn't have a blog...we need to work on that. Anyway.... she is into making zines and sent me one of her Chocolate Zines!!! Above is just a little glimpse.
I think I need to make a zine one day soon! And Barb Johnson.... another Christian Paper Artist girl... She sent this great RAK out with background papers! They are soooooo cool and she even included a sheet explaining how each one was done! No, she doesn't have a blog either! There are still bloggless creators out there... It was a great week in so many ways!

I'll Be There

..... that was the name of the song I selected for the MOG dance!
Sung by Michael Jackson, who my son adored when he was a little boy discovering music.
...let me fill your heart with joy and laughter...
whenever you need me... I'll be there!
