Grand Social-Spreading my few beauties around





Had a nice rain over the week-end.
No new annuals planted yet but
some bright spots.



Love those hens and chicks.
Clematis are priming up to cover this trellis.
Pansies will last until it gets too hot.


Linking up here with Grandma's Briefs.


So miss having my grands around to help with fun things.
All grown up and busy with college and/or jobs.

Life goes on

Note card Wednesday with Vee


Vee's Card Party for May




I am having computer problems, so what else is new.

New cards for Vee's Party 























Computer problems are driving me crazy.
Between Google+ and Picasa 3 I sometimes get pretty aggravated.

Go here for more card fun.



Have a great day.

Well this is what we got.

Well it did snow last night but this is what we actually got.
Reference to yesterday's post.



It is now 11:30 AM and every bit of it is gone.


When I was practicing on trying for macro shots again yesterday this is what I found in my flower pot from  last spring.
Pansy.
They don't mind the chilly weather as long as the sun is shining.
That is how I feel.
Got a surprise call from my MD office yesterday.
I forgot some of the lab tests have to be sent away so I was surprised when they called and told me my cholesterol and triglycerides were elevated.

 Not  totally surprised, after all nearing 75 is getting on and the diabetes is just one of several things that can mess up as one ages.
She wanted to put me on two different medications and because the values were not out of sight I pleaded to try to manage without meds.

You know diet and exercise.
I do hate to take medicine.

So here I am on my oatmeal etc, again.

On to something more fun.
I am making totes decorated with Journey Beads to sell to raise funds for the missions of the Sister of Charity of Nazareth.
If you follow my blog you have seen totes I made for the summer picnic and the ones made from the brown and blue plastic bags were the best sellers.

I call this bag Peanut Butter and Chocolate because the trim reminds me of peanut butter.

The bag  
 The lining and preparing the inner pocket.
This material is like suede but as little as I paid for it I doubt if it is suede.

This is the trim I made for the tote.
Not sure where I am going to put it.

Probably on the flap as it needs to be heavy enough to stay down to keep the tote closed.
 



My items are not on there yet but as soon as I am finished with two they will be featured.
