Freshening up a bit.....................

*WHEW*.................... whatcha think? like the new color of my blog? I was really feeling like I needed to brighten up the place a bit .... at least for a while. I think I like it.
How is everyone on this Wonderful Wednesday? Me? Well... I'm doing okay... having a bit of a day today missing my daddy. Today is his birthday..... and well.................. from past posts.. I'm sure you all know how much I miss him!
Okay.... before I start crying... and short out my laptop.... I'm going to take a deep breath and pull myself together here. Daddy is happy... healthy... and basking in the Glory of the Lord!

I wanted to share the new brighter look of my blog... and a few charity squares I've got ready to send out. This first set is for a lovely lady making a Comfortghan for a friend who was diagnosed with a rare ovarian cancer. She asked for teal colored squares for the 'ghan. Teal is the color that represents Ovarian Cancer. One square is the lovely "Heart of a Child" square I was fortunate enough to test recently. The other is an Awareness Ribbon Square... created by a talented lady on C'ville (Carolyn). The pattern has raised ribbons around the square... but the picture I took doesn't show them very well at all. My apologies! Its a fabulous square!
This square is for a lady from CrochetSwapsGalore yahoo group. She's making a Comfortghan for a dear friends husband who is seriously ill.
Okay................................
So this isnt a Charity Square. This is our silly kitty... who I think believes he's a dog.... hmmm?
Hubby bought this three drawer system for me the other night to help me have some of my things organized near my chair in our room. *yup... soiled me again*
With my daughter living at home for a bit.... I kinda lost my *was turning into* craft room. No biggie. I'll just tuck away in my corner here with my yarn and coffee... and I'm happy. Well... apparently so is Charlie. He was pawing at the bottom drawer this morning.. so I opened it to let him see what it was... he climbed in and laid down. Okay????????? That drawer has all my ziplock baggies and such for mailing. hmmmmmm! How comfy could that possibly be? So I went and got his blankie and put it in the drawer for him.... he immediately curled up for a nap.

Well............ time to get back to making charity squares and working on a bag I'm making for a Purse/Tote swap I'm in. Oh its so exciting! I'll share more about that later.
Have a Wonderful day!!!
hugs... love and blessings

YHAPPY BIRTHDAY DADDY.................
I LOVE YOU!!!!

This is today's scripture.... and I just have to say......................... WOW and AMEN
**Look straight ahead, and fix your eyes on what lies before you. Mark out a straight path for your feet; stay on the safe path. Don't get sidetracked; keep your feet from following evil.
~ Proverbs 4:25-27**
