Some place nice to get stuck in....

loose ends

slowly, but sure are a being tied up.   I had Ken try his hand at trim work for the bathroom.  I had a few pieces that I painted the accent color and had him cut them so I could put them up.  I still need trim for around the floor, but it looks much better having a finish of some kind to it.



 Over the weekend,  Rebekah and some friend from church went on a shopping mission to find dresses for a formal that they will be attending in town next month.   We all visited the second hand shops to find wonderful dresses, and some jewelry. Well, that and new sunglasses!  I bought her  two dresses, a black  A-line that will always be good, and a more straight line brown with pink applique down the front.   It sounds a little funky, but you will see when I post pictures later, it really does look nice. 


Sunday night I stopped by the house of one of the ladies from our church.  She and her sister were wanting to learn the stitch I use to make my perfect square afghan.   I like to teach needlework to people who really want to learn.   I wish my daughters were two of them. 


It was cold enough yesterday to start a fire again, then as that was dwindling I started baking.   Six loaves of bread, a tray of prezel sticks, a tray of pepperoni balls that Jess helped with, and homemade mini oreo's. 


Today while it is raining, I am going to repot some of my seedlings.  It better warm soon so that I can put them outside!
