As my Nanny would say,"Hotter than a pistol"! Which means it is pretty darned hot! 102 degrees as I write. The best thing you can do is lay down, put some ice on ya and forget it all. Cool drinks help too!
My arm is on the mend. I did some crafts yesterday. And yea my hand was all cramped up. I started on another book-book shelf, worked on some of my homemade beads, and deco-paged hymnal pages onto a end table. They all look great!
Nix the crochet for now. It takes too much wrist action. I am going to try my hand at para cord macrame bracelets. They are pretty popular. And Macrame is back in style. Who knew?
My puppy, Riri, is crashed out. It is too hot for him too. And this computer is pretty hot right now. I have been surfing and you know how it is, you loose track of time.
News Alert, I turn 61 on August 29th.
Happy Birthday to me.
I am an artist with a disability. I love to work in mixed media=Fibers and paint. Love to study the Bible, write to missionaries (see who I follow), keep in touch with family, live the good life and walk in Christs light daily.

Back in the swing of things, missed ya!
I can not believe that it has almost been a year since I was on here. Here is an update:
I had a stroke in January and many seizures since last I wrote. I also fell and broke my right arm.
The good news is I am teaching myself the fine art of jewelry making. I have been making beads, wrapping beads with wire, Crocheting with wire and made a hoard of earrings.
I took some of my crochet hats, purses and many other things down to the old Swap Meet and sold nothing. When I had my stroke I had to quit sitting around and selling nothing.
Now I am going to sell my many wares on line at Etsy. I need to get a camera first, because that is key to bring people into your shop. Fun, fun, fun!
My little dog Baby had to be put to sleep, she was probably about 112 years old we figured. She was so ready to go on over. I love her dearly. Riley, my little dog misses her very much.
This last week we are just trying to keep cool. My cast was removed last Wednesday. So I am getting it back up to par so I can start painting and jewelry making again.
I also turned my living room into my craft and art shop. I was tired of looking for things all the time. As you can see, no wool gathers at my feet.
Father bless you all,
Barbara
