Good Bye Blog,,,

I am so sad, but am probablly not going to be posting on Blog anymore... I can not get any help from Blogger in spite of all my requests.. When I try to post,,, all all I get is 1 line.. and can not see what I have typed and when I add photos, they print up in crazy format that takes nearly the whole page.. it is sort of like typing in Brail.. I have no dea what I have typed until I post and go back and look,, but then when I try to make corrections, the page only shows one or two lines and I can't get my cursor to click on the spot, so I have no idea what I am typing..so I think my days pf blogging are over.. I no longer can see who is in my reading list, so I will miss reading my blog friends posts. It was nice while it lasted.. if I can ever get help from blogger I will gladly return, but until then,, Peace be with you...

OK,, MY Blog account is Wacky!

My account is nothing like before,, Idon't know how much longer before I no longer can access my blog account, But while I can, here goes,,I am stitching up some proto type fabric-machine embroidered ornaments,, and in the last 2 photos, is a small 6x8" banner for my cousin who lives in Munich Germany.. Since the Oktoberfest has been cancelled due to COVID-19, I thought he could place this somewhere

Getting Caught Up...

Well between the horrid 40-50mph winds, then all the fires, including one that was about a mile away from us.. I am slowling getting causght up.. The air quality has been dreadful,, to the point of my not being able to go outside, the air was so smoke filled that I could barely breath,, and now the weather has cooled down so much so that my poor garden and called it quits!... On the plus side,, I have been spending more time in my messy craft~sewing room.. getting a few things caught uo.

I made a cute wool-felt snowman ornament..

I made a lavender wreath door hanging,,, which dried a bit to fast and everytime we opened or closed the door,,, we got covered in lavender buds! lol!

Lewd Spam...

UUGH! I am sooo tired of all the lewd, vulgar spam I am still getting... thank goodness I see the 'reply' and am able to mark them as Spam and then delete them.. So tired of it.. Why can't people be respectful ...... I still can't figure out how to contact Blogger and let them know... Oh well,, for now I will continue deleting them to the Spam box.

Mama and Me...

My sweet mother never loses her smile, no matter what.. Mama had a major stroke (Ischemic) January 2018... sadly her ability to speak and get around has diminished greatly. But in spite of it all,, she still smiles...

mama is now 86 years old... but in my heart she will always be young...

I am blessed for every day she is with us...

German Girl...

I channeled my inner German Girl... and made a yummy, or as we say, Lecker German dinner... Spetzle, Knodel and pork loin Goulash.. While the goulash and spetzle was home made from scratch,(I even used fresh onions, and bell peppers from my garden) I cheated on the Knodels, and used a box mix..

I made enough for dinner and lunch the next day.. every now and then I need German Soul Food Fix...

More work around the property...

Well,,we are still up to our eyeballs in work around here...... got our new re-routed driveway in..

and go figure,, our ride on lawn tractor once again is in the shop for repairs, 3rd time in 2 1/2 years.. not a Happy Camper.. so,, after dropping the tractor off at the Dealership for repairs,, we had to stop off at Lowes to get some more cement caulking... as hubby is exiting the store he spots this....

yep, it followed us home and hubby used it right away... he loves it... Now all we have left on our "To-Do' list for 2020,,, haha,, is move the mail box over to our new entrance, finish up with the 'wishing well' and the bird house condo... among a few other small projects.. We may be entering our Golden years,, but we have way to many projects to be a couple of old slugs... lol!
