Yum yum yum yum...

just in case you were wondering...

what happened with this...

We were waiting for this to arrive!

Actually, I have an emotional attachment to my sewing machine -- and I couldn't bear the thought of Sofia learning to sew with it. I purchased the machine in the photo from Walmart -- it got excellent reviews for and from beginners -- it is currently online at their website for $55.00 with free shipping. I will let you know if it is worth the price after we take it out of the box.

Oh, what about the other box in the photo? That's a little more Christmas fabric for me to play with! :-)

stating the obvious...

not so obvious...

In case you're wondering -- this is not the work of a graffiti renegade. "They" are preparing to repave the streets in our part of the "development". Who "they" are -- I do not know. I never catch "them" -- you know...the people who have been given the almighty power to write words on the street pavement. Not sure if "they" travel in packs, or, fly solo.

I know you're wondering why "they" are allowed to write the "move tree" command -- I am thinking they are allies of the men who dig trenches and smile while they do it.

I'm off to Thursday! :-)

today's inspiration...

Okay, so I see some of you scratching your head(s) -- but I know that some of you understand my "artsy" photo.

For me, it is a good day when I can start out with a blank canvas. That means I have the entire day to create something beautiful!

I hope your day starts out as a blank canvas too! :-)

well...

...at least he's #1 on the list!

christmas in july...

...time to get busy! :-)

summer things...

I think my "weeding finger" needs a break. I went outside to water a few plants and -- since it is overcast with a slight breeze -- ended up pulling weeds for 2 hours. I chatted with a couple of neighbors that passed by, had random thoughts about summertime in New Dorp beach, and watched a few fluttering butterflies.





Time to go float around in the pool...
