Another cold, drought day in Edgewood, NM. I had to get out and water my plants yesterday so they will survive the winter! Boy was it cold, so I didn't finish. I'll have to do my grape vines and onions today. We were teased last night with snow, but it just a powdered sugar dusting, that is all, not near enough to save the plants. The thing I ( Read more... )

Hallo everyone!  Happy weekend ( Read more... )

Hello dear flist!  First of all I'd like to send huge hugs to everyone and especially my dears ladyithildiel  and laurelinofwotr .  My thoughts and prayers are with you always, even if I can't be here.

Well, I survived closeout of the fiscal year once again at work.  The overtime nearly killed me this time; I'm just getting to old for this kind of stress.  :(  Or rather the ( Read more... )

Hello and Happy Sunday!  Gosh it felt good to sleep in this morning!  And I'll have a peaceful day, just doing laundry and lazing about the house, fighting a darn summer cold.   But it gives me the excuse within my own mind to do very little today.  lol  I think I'll spend some time reading.   I"m almost finished with "Prince Caspian" and am ( Read more... )

Good Morning my sweet flisters, Happy Sunday!

I thought I'd share an icon that I made a while back (with the help of my son) as I was trying to learn PS.  It's not anywhere near the quality that many of you hold in your talent, but I kinda like it because I'm such a romantic about how Tolkien called his wife, Tinúviel.  This is a very young photo of ( Read more... )

Hello my dear ones! Gosh, it's been so long since I've been in here, I was almost too afraid to come in.  I know I have neglected you all and I apologize.  :(  But when I say 'dear ones' I am sincere, you all mean so much to me and are in my thoughts more than you know.

I've said it before and I will say again...lj simply overwhelms me.  Each time ( Read more... )

A quick post to let you all know I"m still alive but I have been mega busy! I haven't stopped since I got home, except for a couple of stolen moments to watch a couple of old movies.  :p  It's been ages since I saw Steel Magnolias and I couldn't remember much about it so when it came on night before last night, I stopped what I was doing, sat down ( Read more... )

Hello Sweeties!  Happy Weekend and Happy Memorial Day, tomorrow for my US flisters!

This of late has been one of my sadest of holidays.  Not only is it important to me to remember the deeds and sacrifices that our heros have made for our freedom, it also brings memory of my father.  I think I posted his picture that I found at my Mom's when I ( Read more... )
