Abbys' sketches

Abby did not take these photos when she moved, so I have them in my album...her first self portrait in 2000 she caught something about her cool eyes !! And a sketch from her drawing class...she is good !

For M., A. and H..

I am going to try to get some sewing done today[ that I want to try]..inventing dresses for 3 little grand daughters...with what I have..and try to make them look current...good trick I know. Abby can invent way better..but you know..aging grandmas still want to try.

taped and first mudding

I found fabric to match this yard sale jacket..and made this skirt for mom. A new color for her...we shall see ! I taped the drywall and did the first mudding. I am supposed to clean house today because we have a family coming over Sunday and I am busy all day tomorrow..but I am reading this good book.......

What we do for home evening

For home evening we went to the Escondido Center for the Performing Arts..to a REUNION concert. Two of the old...[literally] Lettermen. Their third now is Ric de Azevedo [ from the King brothers.] Some unknown temple lover bought the place out for the evening and invited all the San Diego temple workers [like 1500]to a free concert..and as we were leaving they gave us all a REUNION CD...songs we sang as the Lettermen. It was really a fun evening. The guy on the drums is a temple worker in Draper. I got my CD signed..free thrills, I tell ya.! Opening the evening with 2 songs was Craig Heesch...who was once nominated for a Grammy....I work with him and his wife every Tuesday !

Capt. hook

I got Capt. Hook done...to wear with a white shirt and black pants.

Nice breeze today slamming doors inside the house [the windows are open] Here is dadu's prayer rug...very appropriate ! Oh, and I chopped off my hair...the texture so changes with age..all wiry.

drywall

Today I cut sheetrock and drywalled my holes. I made a pattern like I was sewing. I watched U Tube people doing it. TA DA.

BOUQUET

The wife of a brother ordinance worker at the San Diego Temple makes flower bouquets as a thank you for sisters working there. The brothers working my shift choose who gets it. Today I was picked as the one to receive it. They are always different. Today I was follower on the 12 p.m. session and on the 3p.m. session.

sheetrock !!

I felt inspired to, so I called my neighbor last evening..her kitchen was remodeled last year..I asked it she happened to have pieces of drywall around. She said meet her at her garage..walla....15"x8 foot piece..Whoo hoo..she gave it to me !!! I feel so blessed.
