White flakes of cold that turns to slush
Boo, it snowed today. I'm afraid to go peek outside to see if there is still snow on the ground, enough for Lil' Pix3l to make a snowperson. Since some friends came over to help with chopping the remainder pieces of the willow tree that fell I made a huge pot of chilli, but they were going to relatives house for dinner (i didn't know till too ( Read more... ) -
The bookworm returns
The last book I finished was Dragonfly by Frederic S. Durbin''. I love this book it's got the dark, scary feel of Neil Gaiman's Coraline but with an adult feel to it.

Lovely sound of silence
I haven't been doing much deep thinking and writing here lately. Things have been so hectic here lately that I've been posting whatever has been coming to my head, which is mainly dribble about my day, knitting and crocheting.

Sweet music to my ears brings a warmth to my heart, that my green friend craved with love
No time to reply to comments today sorry everyone, I'm exhausted! Yesterday we went to a small party at a friend's place, I prefer socializing in small crowds. The main reason for this little party was to introduce Mr. Pix3l's brother to Ms. H, a friend of Manatee girl and Nobbie.
