I Like It
I’ve posted videos from Common Craft here previously. I like their work, and I think they are valuable to many people. Here’s one for today.
What I think
Little Choppers
I was down in the basement, doing laundry the other day, and I saw some little wood choppers hanging on my clothes line. Really. You can see their little axes, and also notice that some assembly is still required. A little investigation, and I found their legs: Papa has been making interesting things for the … Read more
Dreary, Dreary
It’s raining out, one of those cold, gray days that make me miserable. Dreary. Papa and I are taking off for a long weekend, if nothing else goes wrong around here. D3 is home with pneumonia, she can’t return to work for a few days. There is good news, D1’s illness is diagnosed and surgery … Read more
Fun with our Family
We had a wonderful weekend, seeing our little grandchildren and enjoying an early family Christmas celebration. We were missing GS2, who stayed home for his basketball practice, and Step-Dad, who had a cold. The kids received several gifts, and it was hard to tell which was the biggest hit.

I need to do some shopping, some cooking, some baking and get ready for a fun weekend with our family. Right now, I sewing some dresses for my granddaughters. I need to finish them and clean … Read more
More on the Deer
Thanks to all of you who sent good wishes, and commented on my hunting trip. I do have a couple more comments (of course). S-dad came to help us, and we had quite a morning yesterday, while Papa cut, S-Dad cut or washed, and I wrapped. We cubed on a lot of the steak, and … Read more
How Many Deer?
Yesterday morning I needed to get to JoAnn Fabric and get some deals. I was so eager, I arrived before the place opened. On the way back, right here, three deer ran in front of my car. Well, two ran in front of it. I got the other one. This happened in a spot two … Read more
