So what is it, Its glueing, pasting moving, stamping, inking, placing paper, moving and tearing paper, using modeling paste and ghesso and palette knifes and paint brushes, painting with acrylic paint, check some of my pictures out.

What a year

Hi everyone, I feel I really have been letting the side down as I've hardly been online this year. Its been an awful year. My oldest son and his youngest son were involved in a dreadful truck accident , the semi, rolled avoiding a tree, then exploded, my son received burns while rescuing his son from the fire, both very lucky to be alive., 6 months later still recovering. My mother sadly passed away, really caused by not receiving medical attention, difficult to deal with that, as my sister and I were not allowed to see her before we lost her, the facility was in quarentine because of a virus.We are still coming to terms with that situation. Now its almost Christmas once again.I'm busy, sewing, painting, pencil drawing, gardening, fostering rescue doggies, tutoring at U3A, volunteering at the Artisan Guild and generally keeping busy. Breaking in a new computer, HP touch screen all in one desktop, frustrating at times as its running windows 7, but I'm getting there. Take care everybody, I must get some more patterns posted for you all. Byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

holiday time

Hi everyone, well its almost countdown time, I'm of on a holiday, a cruise on the Pacific Sun, first cruise but I'm not going alone there's a group of 4, ladies similar age we are intending to have fun. Making sure that we have lots of seasick pills, plus ginger, and ear plugs in case we snore. I organised it so having first pick of the beds, the important stuff, plus first nanna nap in the afternoon. LOL, which we will probably all need as the youngest is 65 and the oldest 77. Now I'm feeling a little nervous that its getting closer, but still determined to enjoy it. If we all have a good time we intend doing a much longer cruise towards Christmas, 2 weeks to New Zealand. Anyway I will keep you all posted. take care, bye
