What you will find in this blog


Crafts, recipes, tips and tricks around the house. In olden days, as far back as 1950 if you can imagine, there would be a great many things that your mother would teach you so that you might one day be a good housewife. A lot of those things have fallen away. Mostly because you no longer NEED to know them, like how to decorate a cake or quilt a blanket. But just because you don’t need to know these things doesn’t mean they aren’t fun to know. Most of the things I’ll be showing you are things that I’ve found helpful in my life or that I just wanted to learn. You can also find links to buy kits for making the crafts you see here or the project already completed. So ENJOY!!!

Prompt #16, #17, and #18. 2011 is going to the best year ever.

Was gonna do 5 but 3 is good.


December 16 – Friendship How has a friend changed you or your perspective on the world this year? Was this change gradual, or a sudden burst? (Author: Martha Mihalick)


This year has been a very difficult time for so many wonderful people in my life.  Watching these people has been inspirational.  My friend Dawn in particular has been a strong example.  She has taken beautiful care of herself.  Watching her step boldly forward in her life gives me hope that I can in mine.
The beautiful Dawn and some girl.


December 17 – Lesson Learned. What was the best thing you learned about yourself this past year? And how will you apply that lesson going forward? (Author: Tara Weaver)


MEDS.  I need them.  I'm one of those people that will take the pills to get rid of symptoms then when I'm symptom-free I believe that I no longer need them and I stop taking them.  I need them!!  Lesson learned.

UPDATE.  Since my home was broken into by Buglars on Wednesday while I was at work  I've learned a new lesson.  Check your locks.  It's a laptop and a trashed apartment later but lesson learned.





December 18 – Try. What do you want to try next year? Is there something you wanted to try in 2010? What happened when you did / didn’t go for it? (Author: Kaileen Elise)
Dawn and I did something that she'd wanted to do since childhood.  That reminded me of what I've wanted to do since I was a kid.  I want to be on a game show damn it!!  I meant to do it in 2010 and never got around it.  2011 is the YEAR!!  Watch for me on GSN.
