Spring is just around the corner!

Hope everyone had a great Valentines. We had nice weather. Snow forcasted for tomorrow. Really looking forward to March! Always pretty and warm here then. Started a new Beth Moore bible study, "Believing God". Believing in his promises to all those who believe his word. Very bible based workbook and videos with additional Beth Moore input. She'll change your life. She changed mine.Materials available in most Christian stores. Mardel for sure.

Hope you have a blessed week. Hugs, Kat

Happy New Year Everyone!

Brrrr It's cold outside! Supposed to get to single digets by morning with below 0 chill factor! Be sure to dress real warm if you have to go out. My Mini Shop has some new items I'd like you to see.(Click Older Posts, Thur.Oct29th) The Folk Classic Pillowcases with Classic Cars and Folk characters especially. I'm proud of these because I used iron on transfers on plain pillowcases and sewed them and added detail with washable fabric paint! Three items are highlighted at the top that are Folk Classics. I'm going to get some hot chocolate now. Why don't you join me? Hugs Kat

Welcome to my Blog

I'm honored to have you visit my blog. Please feel free to provide your blog info or a site or shop you call your own. I want you share with me too.
The weather was cold but extremely sunny today. Almost painfully bright. After the last gloomy period a welcome change. My hb and I rode around for awhile and commented on the warmth of the sun on us even through the windows. Hb is recuperating from a shoulder surgery. He suffers from Osteo-arthritis and has to have things restitched, so to speak, frequently. He's not one to baby himself though and his doctor has him doing therapy less than a week since the surgery which is fine with him. He was driving yesterday working out how to get in the driver seat and close the door with his right hand and turning pulling his left arm in before the door closed. He had it down today.

Now that the decorations have been put away and the house returned to normal I can go back to my favorite activity,sewing. By hand that is. I have a shop in the den here at home. The tax people say not to get too fancy or the gov. will not give you a write off on your taxes. So I have a card table to work on with a good light and bookshelves on which to store my wares in boxes to keep them clean in plastic bags. And a computer in the family room. That's my set up. What's yours?

I want to visit other blogs so please give me your blog address. I just started mine so it's not anything like some I've seen. But I hope to interact with people with common interests so this works for me.
Well, I guess I'll go read. I also love to read. Real books that is. I tried to keep up with books on line and was really frustrated. I got behind and lost interest. Every night before I go to sleep I get into bed and like a thief read my book of the day voraciousely devouring the words. Till my eyes droop and I put it away till the next time. Take care and leave me a note so I know you've been here. Hugs,Kat

Wasn't it Beautiful! Snow in Texas on Christmas

I can't think of a nicer surprise than snow on Christmas. Having lived in the mid-west we were used to snow on Christmas but in Texas it's a rare treat which I have seldom experienced in the 30 years I've lived with my family here in Allen, Texas and never on Christmas Eve or Christmas day. We make snow ice cream with snow,milk and vanilla. Kids old and young love it.

What did you get for Christmas that you were not expecting? My hb bought me a beautiful new Bible by Joyce Meyer! She has written notes of summary and explanation throughout the chapters and the print is large enough for these old eyes to enjoy reading the word.She has Life Lessons throughout as well. I have always admired her gift with words and this Bible includes her unique way of helping us understand the meaning of this beautiful text. I'm looking forwart to using it in Bible study next year. All my best to everyone. Hugs Kat

It's supposed to snow here tomorrow!

In Texas we don't get much snow. This year already we had snow and tomorrow we are to get an accumulation. It will be great for the kids. And perfect timing with tomorrow being Christmas Eve. Merry Christmas to you and yours.Hugs. Kat

Now it feels like Christmas

Finally got the Christmas lights up. It was so cold I had given up putting them up but yesterday it was warm so I decorated the back yard. I will post some pictures on flikr in the next day or two. Find me at http://www.Flickr.com (Press Photostream) Kat

Great! Now on to Christmas

Hope all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We were blessed to have our Nephew Andrew and his wife Sarah and three children,Abbott,Mabel and Fred down from Montana over while they were visiting Sarah's Father in Wylie. They took the kids to see the dynosaurs at Heard Museum in McKinney. Sent us pics of them riding the monsters. They make noise and everything. The dynosaurs that is.
