Not Another To-Do List?

To do:
  • figure out what we need to do to visit and apply for HIGH SCHOOLS for Andy
  • in basement room, remove the horrible hodge-podge of plastic drawers, particle board file cabinets, folding tables and peg-board panels
  • replace all of above with matching closet components to create crafting and writing sanctuary
  • think about Christmas
  • get addicted to Jazzercise again
  • take down gazebo and swamp cooler
Yesterday we went to the pumpkin farm. The annual outing is always one of my favorites, and yesterday was particularly spanking. The wind was blowing just enough that we wanted sweaters. The sun was shining brilliantly. We could see orange-tinted pumpkin fields from miles away. We rode on the hay wagon pulled by a tractor. We tromped through the corn maze, cooed at the calico kitties, slapped the flanks of cows, and pulled our little Radio Flyer wagon through the pumpkin field. We chose our pumpkins, including some mini-jacks that will serve for Thanksgiving decorations as well as Halloween. All in all, a thoroughly exhausting day was had by all. I was glad to have...

a fabulous meal of parmesan-crusted chicken, fettucini with alfredo sauce, and caesar salad all ready to go because Rose and I have been going to...

Supper Solutions.

Yesterday morning, I led my art club in exploring a technique using fusible webbing. One of my favorite artist friends ventured outside, came back with fabulous autumn leaves and fused them to her fabric backing. Needless to say, all of us promptly copied her. I love my new autumn leaves and grasses panel.

Guess that's it for now.

Thanks for the update, it is always good to hear from you. You have as many projects in the works as I do. Maybe someday we will get them done -- you thnk!

I did the gazebo and cooler. And I cleaned out the shed and found black widows.
