Grown Women Who Color

Last night was my class that Gran was teaching at BP&HH, Grown Women Who Color. I have been waiting for this class all year long. I had a blast! It was so much fun, and for someone who is not that creative, I was really enjoying myself. Gran is an excellent teacher, she has a natural talent for it! But, she is not very talented at "iron operations"! Quick explanation, she was trying to help Carol W. operate an iron, but they could not figure out what the issue was, until Lonnie asked if the iron was plugged in, and you guess it, it was not! We had a good giggle over that! Gran had us practice on a couple of things before we started on our "Masterpiece". We had 2 patterns to choose from, both by Crabapple Hill, one was Winter Wishes, and the other was Breath of Spring, which is the one I chose. I am going to have to get my patterns out at home to see which ones I can use the crayons with, since I was having so much fun. Please pardon my incomplete "Masterpiece", I will post another picture when I am done. Until then, color on!!!

Thanks Goodness, Friday Is Almost Over!!!!

I am not going to discuss my job, my work or my boss, all I am going to say is that I am so-o-o-o-o happy that today is almost over. I finished my August wool penny for class tomorrow(I will post a picture tomorrow), I am playing at BP&HH tomorrow, so I can get lost and forget my problems in fabric, and I can not wait!!!!!!!! Monday evening is Knot-y Ladies, can't wait for that, we always have so much fun, and I don't even mind if Gran makes us do embroidery yoga!! A week from Monday is Gran's class, Grown Woman Who Color, and I cannot wait for that class either, I have all of my stuff ready for that class. Well, off to dreamland, and no I will not be dreaming of my job, my work or my boss, but of fabric, fabric and more fabric, and perhaps, George Clooney! wink, wink!

It's Friday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Where does the time go, whew! It's already August, and next thing you know if will be October, then December, well, you get my drift! Work has been really busy. I had to drive down to Patterson, Newman and Gustine yesterday to visit clients, and I took the country road, I hate driving I-5, too many big rigs! I love to drive country roads, I love the horses, and cows, and sheep, the smell of alfalfa being cut. Looking at the beautiful fields that have been worked and tilled, but mostly the old buildings. I did not have my camera, but after my trip down there, hubby and I may be going for a drive this week-end. The weather has been beautiful and perfect, it felt like fall to me yesterday. I felt like I stepped backed into the 40's in these older, small towns, and the people were so friendly and nice. I can't wait to go exploring! But first, I need to get through Friday, and yes, today is not exception, a very busy day on tap, but I will get through it knowing that this week-end, there is no baseball, no playing at BP&HH, and housework pretty much kept up, so I will have time to explore! Here's wishing everyone a great week-end! Hugs!
