Coming Around!


Christmas came and went. It was wonderfully uneventful,  as was the New Year.  I have been nesting, going out to lunch a few time with Hubby and then flitting from one project to the next. 

With the purchase of a new Mac computer, I am set to enjoy a couple upcoming beadisciple classes, reconnecting with my poetry e-circle, pulling up weaving videos that are awaiting my perusal and maybe zoom once a month with Story Circle Network.

The saori loom has the beginnings of a weaving on it but I am removing my first efforts and reorganizing the warping threads. Yes, mistakes are acceptable in Saori, but it just looks too sloppy and taking out a few rows is no big deal.

Reading….. always reading…..”The Case for Christ by Lee Strobel is confirming my Christianity. “The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks” by Rebecca Skloot is an upcoming read for the senior center book club. I am enjoying both books.

Weaving projects are numerous and I should be focusing on the tapestry, beginning a small sampler to teach myself a new technique and just practicing the process. Saori will always win my adoration, I am quite sure. It is a create as you go process, or rather, it can be!

The cold weather is coming. Birdbaths are freshened, food replenished and I have ordered a bird bath heater. Such joy Hubby and I experience having these wanted guests in our backyard. Best Dog Ava doesn’t bark, just watches and enjoys the company as we do. I never thought I’d be a birder, but then I never thought master gardening would be an accomplishment either.

And so 2025 begins, hopefully less worldly commitments so my chosen commitments at home can be accomplished. As the Lord leads……

And now for a “spiritual” sharing -
