Planting Seeds, Helping Them Grow
It’s rare when I am surprised by anything I read online. The last time I was truly shocked about anything in the public domain was when Trump won the Presidential election. Watching the election night coverage (yes, we watched all night) was true “shock and awe.” That was the best reality show we have ever…
I have been teaching myself to knit. So far, I have knitted two hats (this way https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0hnGiE2tuts), two cowls, and then decided to add knitting to my patchwork afghan/blanket/whatever you want to call it (here are the crochet/tunisian crochet panels I did a few years ago … finally went back to this now https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HevK-AQPdvU&list=UUJ6WgGiNiMDC34VxEMKRBSg). I…
So, yesterday morning, I sent hubby off with a kiss. When I came back inside, I noticed a very small drop of something liquid on the floor. I thought that I might have dripped with emptying the coffee grounds, so I just wiped it up and went about my morning routine. Ten minutes later, there…
Well, after much trial and error (mostly me thinking I was smarter than most others and not having it work at all) I am finally weaving something! I think I posted this link before but this was basically what I did: http://www.theloomybin.com/doc/cwloom/ And, of course, I can’t choose something simple for my first project. This…
Well, I promised a post on macrame. Since I ended up NOT doing this with my plant hangers (I ended up just knotting the cords), I’ll just post a blog I found. It’s ALL about macrame! If you know nothing about it, go ahead and start on this page: http://www.macramelovers.com/blog/how-to-macrame/macrame-2/ If you know a little,…
I’m back on my weaving tangent, though I’m not even finished with my woman cave yet. This is how my Attention Deficit works. I was given a link quite a while ago (http://www.cs.arizona.edu/patterns/weaving/index.html). That tab has been sitting there, open, this entire time. I finally decided to go through all the links, download what I…
After the last food recall (which was hamburger made from diseased cows … yeah, like cutting out the cancerous eye before slaughter was good enough AND all that meat was stamped “Approved” prior to grinding), this really is the way to go. The only problem I’ve had is getting the meat/fat ratios right for burgers….
One more week and I can go play in the garage again! Until then, I’m watching videos and dreaming … I mean learning. I made a playlist on You Tube for Wood Carving (Power and a few manual). AND I have to thank Tim Vande Sluis of http://carvingonwood.com/. Since I’m such a total noob, I…
So, I’m on day 5 of my parsley tea regimen and I’m feeling much better, though the pain is more localized now (movement of another stone?). So, I went to Google and am just wondering if I could overdue it with cleanses. I actually found some Bragg Apple Cider Vinegar on sale, so I’ve started…
Well, today is day 4 of my parsley tea and it’s working! I feel much better (and think it may be a small kidney stone … sure hurts and moves like one). So, I can’t do much moving around. I’ve decided to finally finish cleaning up my website and found this little tidbit hiding amongst…
