It seems like yesterday that I was so joyous it was Springtime! Enjoying the new buds popping out on the red bud tree and the fresh sprouts coming up out of the ground with new growth and here I am sitting thinking about switching the clothes over for the warm days to come to warm clothes to keep me warm. I've started putting away my little pretties that I scatter throughout the flower beds. An angel here (from DH) and a turtle there (my Odie collected turtles when he was little). There is the little duck with her bonnet (made from a neighbor lady I grew up with). A wooden bridge that the cat sometimes walks across and the little wooden bench that another cat likes to sit on that is nestled in the taller flower stalks of course, thinking that no one can see her. The bird baths are put away and all the flower pots so they can be repotted next Spring with new seeds. I hear it could be a winter like we haven't had for awhile. They say it's time. Well, we will see about that. Of course the wooly caterpillars are all black - maybe I could find some brown paint and put a few stripes on them and trick them into telling Old Man Winter to leave us alone. Nah. I suppose that wouldn't work too well. Winter is beautiful but only because I have the option of not having to drive in it. Walking to work suits me well. It is great though that there is a friend who works with me that only lives about 2 houses away from me and I can catch a ride with her.
I need to sit and sew - have the baby quilt to FMQ, those little 10 Minute Squares, some Cathedral Window backgrounds, the list goes on. But as I sit here and dream of getting more seams sewn, my eyes are drooping. It was a long day and I better head in for the night.
TaDa,
Trish
