Yesterday sure looked like it would a relatively peaceful day at 8:30 AM. Housework, GS prep and end of year paperwork, maybe a little stitching time before I go pick up DS and take him to get his new glasses. (he stepped on them last week.) DD is going over to the neighbor's to play with...

I was in Nova Scotia on vacation just recently and I didn't notice a dramatic increase in gas prices.

Oh my!!! I had to wait to finish a baby afghan with Tigger on it. Baby Leah, my new nice, arrived on 07-19-2003 ( 1 month early). Now, all I have to do is put the backing on it (keep little fingers out of threads). -- Angel My family are the golden threads running through the tapestry of my ...

You may remember a few months back that I mentioned a horrible accident where three 18 year old boys died in a car accident ten days after they graduated from hight school.

Anyone tried this? My daughter, Jane, discovered it at the Suffolk Agricultural show and has started it - it looks like fun and the results are very good. She`s making a belt at the moment, but wants to make a rug - presumably by sewing the strips together. It seems like the sort of thing that...
