My Summer Patio!
I am enjoying planting many flowers on my patio. I have not been able to plant much in the past few years, or decorate it, due to my illness. I am so happy I feel so good, and can garden again.

It has been a long time...

t is I have not written in this blog for a long time, as I kind of lost it! that is me!
I have been doing a lot of sewing the past few months and started some new techniques. I am beginning to needle sculpt, and also customize ready made dolls. It takes longer then my prims but I am really enjoying the new techniques. I am also painting eyes on..and that has been fun to learn. Any of you dabbling in doll making, try some new techniques, it is fun, and you cant go wrong!I am now on a strick  plan to help me get fit, and stay fit. I walk two to four miles a couple times a week..which I love. the birds sing, the leaves are blooming out, and so are the flowers. I also use my treadmill for thirty minutes three times a week, and I do yoga six times a week. It has really helped my health, and I really enjoy it, now that is just part of my lifestyle.
