Well here it is February. In just a few days I will be 75! Goodness that sounds old; then there are days I feel every bit of it. I tell myself that it is just a number. Feelings vary lately.... lazy, energetic, sad--happy and then I take a deep breath and relax. Alan is always telling me to just relax. I must say that Murphy really helps with that. He loves attention...belly rubs... love the feel of this velvet boy! I am fortunate to have a lovely large room...sleep on one side, and sew/craft on he other. Alan calls it my sanctuary. So when the mood is there...
this is the last felt ornament... taking a break from felt. She almost can be called a Kokeshi doll. They are made of wood and have no arms or legs. This is my version.Just received this great book that I ordered from Anni Downs. This book is great...Anni's designs are great. Looking forward to making one of the patterns. First I want to make a Tiny Doll from a pattern I bought from Ann Down.
Also the cat..... She has so many nice patterns and many are free. Simple and the patterns are well drawn and directions easy to follow. I have 2 other patterns of hers at the ready. One is a dancing bunny and the other 2 sizes of a fat sheep. So many projects on my to do list. I would not want it any other way. Now I said random things...
I do not often go to Subway, but recently Lisa and I did.I usually tear the wrapper and use it to secure the bottom end of my Italian sub. For the first time I read the wrapper....do you see it? Who would eat the wrapper!?
Murphy has been enrolled in an in home training program which will begin at the end of February. He just does not know it yet. Going to be interesting. As precious as he is, there are a few behaviors that need attention. It is a lifetime program which means after the lessons are accomplished, at any time they will return to address new issues or refine the old one. If you did not realize by now, he is a spoiled pup...and yes it is me who spoils hem. But, sis Lyn is also helping.
Murphy is crazy about boxes of any size and type but also mail. When the mail arrives he has to have a piece to "read". I usually give him all the ones that are addressed to Dennis (yes after 4 years they still arrive). Sis Lyn sent him his own mail. Fed-ex no longer rings the bell. They just leave the boxes at the front door. We love him no matter what! So, I hope you enjoyed random things today. Glad you stopped by. Thank you for your kind words and thank you for your friendship. Stay tuned for more Random things in the future!
