Wanderings...

I've been in a wandering [art] stage for months now;

tired of the little crazy quilt collages

but haven't found a new niche to settle into.

I don't try a lot of different art ideas

simply because that usually leads to buying new supplies...

experimenting...

...and moving on.

I’ve settled briefly on the penny rug style…

but not for long I think.

I made another necklace… I call it “Bohemian Nights”.

...a bit bored with it all.

Annie Update & Etc...

I told Miss Sleepy head that bloggers are inquiring on how she is doing....
Hey Annie... Wake UP!
Come On Pumpkin....sit up... you can do it.... that's it... one eye at a time...

There you are... up and awake and saying HI!

She is doing well, has not had any of the bad symptoms of excessive coughing or throwing up or etc, just sleepy sleepy sleepy... and that is good; because she has four more weeks of total rest to go.

I've been stitching while I sit with Annie...

Have a Happy Weekend!!

Painted Horses to Iron Horses

Downtown Ogden... you will see a painted horse... you'll see 2 more by the fountain in the background, and they dot a few of the corners. Link to Painted Horses. The building is the train station.

Looking the other direction... you'll see our iron horses.
The view is east on "Two-bit street" (25th Street).
It looks pretty mild, doesn't it.

"Crime boss Al Capone commented in the 1920s that Ogden was too wild a town for him." [Historic 25th].

It's not that way now.. at least during the daylight!

Happy Labor Day

It's a rainy Labor Day and I'm not laboring! Instead I'm sipping on that homemade Plum liqueur and stitching on a quilt collage. The Plum liqueur came out lovely! Did anyone else try making some??? Results???
