new digs

As I mentioned in my last post we moved yet again so I thought I would share some photos of the new place. The owner planted some really beautiful if not higgly piggily placed flower plots around the house and yard.

These are some of the amazing irises that are blooming in one of the plots. And these are some of the amazing views from the yard.

The chickens have settled in nicely – although their coop needs a little TLCImage

And the dogs are loving their new yard; Jake was being camera shy today so no pics of him.ImageImageImage

This is my temporary sewing room. . .Image

And a sneak peak at my latest project . . .I’m thinking of calling it purple rhapsody.

ImageImage oh the math and mapping of it sometimes drives me crazy anyhow I will post more photos when she’s all done. Till next time craft on!

Kitchen redo

On April 1 we moved for the sixth time in six years and let me tell you that gets old really fast. The only good thing about moving is getting to put your stamp on the new place. Here are some pics of my kitchen redo. It’s a work in progress so will have to show the final pictures in a future post.

Pottery Class

For Christmas last year my friend Paaaam otherwise known as Pam gave me and our otherfriend Pam gift certificates for a pottery class/lesson with Captain Mudslinger at Mudslinger Pottery. On April 1 we finally got around to taking our class. It was quite fun. You bring your own snacks and beverages, thanks Pam V., which you set up on a table in the shop. As you munch the Captain tells you what to expect from the class; he shows you the kiln and explains how it works. Once you’ve gotten your fill you move into the studio where the Captain gives a demonstration and from there you become a pottery genius. Well that’s not entirely true but with much help from the Captain you can make some really beautiful bowls.

Changes

I have decided to switch my blog/website over to wordpress as the previous site I was using has had some kinks that I had trouble working out and I no longer want the hassle. So, here I am. I feel like I am at a place of new beginnings in many spaces in my life right now. I’ve recently moved, again, I’ve just become a Nana for the first time, and my work as a campus minister is changing – lots of changes but I feel good about them all and look forward to getting back to blogging on a regular basis. Please be patient with me as I learn about wordpress and get this new site up and running. Tell next time craft on.
