I wanted to grab an easy project to work on in the car on the way to and from the festival last weekend. Something so easy that I could work on it while meandering around if I wanted to.
So I made more felted clutches. I’m a little fast for my own good though because I [...]

MA Sheep and Wool

On Sunday, Bethe, Heather, Rhonda and I headed up to Cummington, MA for the Sheep and Wool Festival.
It was a gorgeous day outside and perfect for such a trip. We meandered through the barns, made a few purchases, ate some great hand cut fries, and ended with ice cream on the way home.
I did [...]

My mother decided she wanted to play violin. So a few years ago she took it up and started classes. I remember hearing many renditions of twinkle twinkle little star.
She has come a long way and this year was playing with a local orchestra, The Fitchburg State College Community Chamber Orchestra.
With my lovely [...]

I was looking around the house the other day (in my continuous quest to reduce needless clutter) and it was nice to stop and appreciate the things I have that I really love. It was easy to snap a couple pictures but this is certainly not everything. Two things not pictured but at the top [...]

I’m back.

Last week’s trip to Kansas was very tiring. There was a lot of work to be done and I was pretty shot by the time I was through. Just enough oomph left to get some dinner and crash most nights. The hotel was a DIVE. We’re talking stained carpets that have not seen a vacuum [...]

Is she looking for me? I think the kitties miss me. Thankfully I’ll be home tonight to pet them and feed them some much needed treats!
Have a great weekend everyone!
Where did my mom go?

Maybe Bootsie can find her?

Happy Birthday Ray!

So Wednesday was the blessed event. Ray’s birthday and the day of the year that I do something wacky to his desk.
This year, I had a contest to get new ideas for this event and I must say, there were some really good suggestions.
The first winner is Heather. She won because I loved [...]
