Thump and thankful

My friend Kay often writes about Thursday Thumpers in her blog. A thumper is when you wanna hit your head… or someone else’s! You need to read Kay’s blog anyway, just because it is the best entertainment out there. Spew warning though…. she will make you laugh so hard you will spew your [...]

Yesterday was all about turkeys. In every possible way I could mean that. So let’s leave it at that.

Amaryllis Watch

We have been on “amaryllis watch” for the last week. I bought an amaryllis for Steve for Christmas. His family had a greenhouse for many years and he loves flowers. But he had never grown an amaryllis before.

I got alot done today though.  Did laundry, cleaned up some messes, started quilting a quilt and worked on my Bella quilt.
Here are a few shots of my day:

I got the corners put [...]

My apologies to those of you on dial-up who wont be able to watch this.  But for those on cable or DSL, a little chuckle for you this morning……..
