New Look

  Well since I no longer live on Lake Erie I can no longer sew up storm there. So changed my look. Turquoise has always been my least favorite color. A couple years ago granddaughter requested a brown and turquoise quilt .Making it was pure torture. But suddenly I like it ,don't know why just do.
  Besides was really tired of the Martha Stewart green. So wa la.
      Went to a Christmas party this evening .  I was told to bring a regift. Something u received but didn't like or never used. I brought a Angry Bird Hat .  Received DVD's of Wagon train ,and a small flash light. Which was fine Bill loves Wagon Train reruns .

Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree

We have a very small apartment here in Janesville. People ask me " don't you miss your big house? "
   Answer "No".  I love our little apartment .
  # 1 . I can clean the whole thing in two or three hours.
  #. 2. Can't collect so much junk.
  #.  3. The man who  I live with is so sweet and kind I would live in a cave with him before I would move back to my house.
     The only thing I miss my is my washer and dryer . Very inconvient  to run back and forth to the wash room. But perhaps it's good exercise for me.

Sad News

  Judy and I seem to be connected by the stars.  Both of our first born were born Sept19th.  My 46 year old son died Jan 6th the first month of 2013. Judy's Misty died Dec. 6th  the last month of 2013.

 Judy had all girls ,I had all boys. 

Big Hair

OK finally got a photo of the hair . Also photo of Ted's wife Stacy and her family on a run.

Hair challenge

  OK , in August I decided to get perm though my hair is curly I thought it might give it more body. Well it did ...if you consider frizz body. Couldn't even get a comb through it. So hair dresser suggested I get it straightened, well that helped get comb through it but that's about all.  It was still fried .
   Couldn't deal with anymore so today I got it cut very short much to Bill's dismay
   So I told him I would let it grow for one year. Starting today .
   Following my progress I will post a picture each month starting today.

Cool Rainy Day.

Nice here in beautiful Janesville WI. Tired of summer lets get fall started .
  Two things going on this week going to start a diet and work on two quilts Mo's wedding quilt and my whole cloth quilt.
  My little cousin Steve died this week ,he was five years younger than me. He suffered from   Mental illness  for years . He took meds for this that  made him feel tired and dopey . He knew it was the pills that caused that and hated taking them. He was a great guy how agonized over others troubles. The pastor compared his feeling to Jesus who feels pain for others sins. A good  comparison . I think of the people claiming to be Christians that were cold or distant to Steve.  Perhaps they should remove the log from their eye.
   Today once again the reading was of the prodigal son. And forgiveness. How many listen to that verse and continue to hold grudges and judge others .
    Well more about the diet and quilts tomorrow.
