Sent My SBBC Exchange Today

I sent my SBBC Exchange today and it should reach it home in about 4 days. It is so excited about going such a long way.

School has started and I am going crazy. I have another class to teach so my days are full. The children are wonderful and are really doing an excellent job. I love what I do. We have a new building and we will be moving the middle of September. I'm already getting tired.

Our weather has been marvelous. I truly enjoy going on my walks now. I sweat but it is a cool sweat.

Enjoy your day and God Bless.

Pjiro received my LK Exchange


Here is a picture of my LIK Exchange. At first I thought I had bit off more than I could chew, time wise but it went very quickly and I really enjoyed doing it for Pjiro. Now to do the finishing work on my SBBC Exchange. It shouldn't take me too long.


School begins for me this week and I can't tell you where the time went. I spent a few days with our grandchildren in Texas and then Gary and I went back down and helped our son and his family with their move to Paducah, TX.


I've started a little Bent Creek Zippie and it is fun to work on. Enjoy the rest of the week, stay cool, and may your lives be filled with many blessings.

My Lizzie Kate Is On Its Way

I mailed my Lizzie Kate Exchange today and the Postmaster told me it would only take 4 days. I am so excited. I hope it likes its new home.

Today I spent the day with two of my dearest friends. We shopped, visited, and ate together. It is always a treat to spend time with good friends.

I am going to Denton, TX tomorrow afternoon and help our son take two of our granddaughters to Six Flags. We had to cancel once because of bad weather. We are planning on being there when they open and being there when they close. I hope this Nana has not bit off more than she can chew. It has been 21 years since my last visit to Six Flags. I'll share when I get back.

Peace and blessings to all.

Lizzie Kate Exchange Received






I went to Las Vegas to meet my brother whom I had not seen in about 8 years. We had a wonderful time and the casinos did not earn a dime from us. We were to busy visiting and walking. We walked 9 miles. He is 74 and I am 64; not too bad for old timers.

When I returned home I had received my Lizzie Kate exchange from Hazel of the United Kingdom. What a wonderful surprise. I love my pin keep. Thank you so much Hazel.

Great Birthday Exchange


I received my SBBC exchange on June 17th. But when I tried to publish my blog I could not get the picture to come up and by the way of Becky K of OK we decided that the plug in was loose. (I'm sure there is a correct computer term but you have to remember that I am a music teacher.) I ran out of time so after a trip to Wisconsin I am finally able to download my picture and post that I received my birthday exchange. I love it and I have hung it in a perfect place in my living room. I appreciate the time and effort it took to make my little bag. I'm working on a Lizzie Kate exchange and I plan to use some of by pearl beads on it. They are perfect. Thank you so much Joke B. from the Netherlands.

Here is a picture of my finished Trilogy Tin. It was really fun to do. I think I will finish it, as suggested by my friend Becky K of OK, to mount it on top of my little tin and make a needle case.

I have 30 minutes free so I am going to stitch on "Bringing Spooky Treats" by Becky Boo's. My coffee is calling. This week is Teacher Appreciation at All Saints and they have treated us royally.

I have entered in Edgar's blogaversary drawing. I hope I win. I finished a project this weekend. It is "Peace in all things" by Trilogy in the little thin tins. It really turned out very well. Of course I am at school and the project and camera are at home. I will try to add a snap this evening.
I am continuing on my WIP by Becky Boo's. It is the Halloween picture with all of the buttons which I just adore.

Becky K of OK and I went to Idabel to visit our friend, Mary Ann, that has the delightful shop called Mimi's. We had a relaxing weekend and lots of laughs. We drove down in torrential rain or as is called in Oklahoma a "toad strangler" rain.

It rained while I drove home yesterday from school. It rained on me this morning while I did duty and it is supposed to rain this evening while I go home from school. Our lakes, rivers, streams, and ponds are overflowing.

Hope to post more tonight. Peace and blessing for the week.
