I chose a few new songs to put on my IPOD today so I feel like dancing!

Some of the songs I am adding today include "Bring on the Rain" by Jo Dee Messina, "Better in Time" by Leona Lewis and "Lucky" by Jason Mraz. What are some of your 'new' favorites?

"Patent Pending "













I hope you can get the idea! There are orange lights in this bowl nestled around the pumpkins and apples.

This is Delores' idea......part of her artistic creativity!

It is a beautiful centerpiece casting amber light all over the room in the evenings!

Since I am trying to stay focused on my 'creative' side I want to include a picture of one of my favorite creations hand made by my sweet cousin, Cindy! When she gave me this beautiful quilted bag, she told me it was
in 'my colors'......
I paused to think.......
were those my colors?


What do you think?


And aren't we sweet?

Taking a day OFF?
BAH HUM BUG!!!


I have pulled a muscle in my shoulder and had a restless nights sleep so I am supposed to be taking the day off! And Monday's my favorite day of the week! I think I scrubbed too many floors, shampooed and vacumned too many carpets (swished too many toilets! heehee) and stayed on the computer too long making this website.







I guess I will settle in my chair
and read
my book.....
and finish it today.


I hope everyone has a nice day!
No frisbee golf for me today! lol

Some of my bears!

I'm anxious to get started so I thought I would start with some bears I've made!


Meet Mr. and Mrs. Christmas Bear. They
were the first two bears I created. I LOVED
making their little clothes! Mr. Bear has tiny
pine cone buttons from Fraizer Firs up at my
Dad's old cabin! Mrs. Bear has bells on her dress!
















I made this one out of soft fur and even
made a little hat and pillow to go with her.









These two little bears guard the children's books!

My creative blog!

With the help of my wonderful hubby, I am attempting to start a blog for the creative side of my personality. I have always made things and collected interesting things and I would love to share with my family and friends. I have kept journals for most of the past 4 decades....how time flies....so this will be a way to archive some of my thoughts and dreams.

I feel like I am entering a new phase of my life so this
will be a way to start documenting the changes!


At 6 years old......I 'wished upon a star'
every night when I looked out my window!

Thanks sweet hubby! And my friend, Lila for the inspiration!

I promise not to post scary BUG pictures, Kaila! heehee!
