"Last Sunday of 2009!"

Wow I got my first comment on this blog but no follower yet. I guess it is a good start. I have been vping( for those hearing people vp is video phone that deaf people use to call their deaf friends or relatives)  with my daughters and son from Missouri a lot. My oldest daughter Trudie has been in er twice due to her vomiting and pain in her stomach and they are still finding out why she is still sick after her first visit to er and the medication is not working. So far with my craft project I have made two more jewerly since last time I blogged and now working on the blanket project that I started three years ago for Trudie. I used Circle Knit loom. I have already done two panels and now on third panel. Today I was brushing Mai Tai and a lot of fur was flying everywhere and a lot of them were sticking to everywhere too. I had to vacumm them up but she is not too happy about sitting there too long and she has been trying to escape me and I decided to give her a break and now she is happy running around in the back yard. I will have to brush her again maybe tomorrow. I think she is losing her baby fur now. She is now a year and two month old. She still remind me a lot of Sally my first Bearded Collie in her behavior and action. I guess that is what everyone calls the Beardie traits and the bouncing type. The picture of her on our bed is what she was three months old. The next picture was taken two months ago with her first grooming from the Petco as age of one year old.

Dec 22, 2009

It was pretty busy weekend for me. I was off for winter break started last Friday. I made four different kinds of cookies. I finished four jewerly, two knitted socks and one scarf. Now I have to mail some of gifts to my family tomorrow. It is getting cold here, I think I prefer spring time as I am getting older and my bones are telling me that they are not suited for cold weather anymore. This Christmas will be my first Christmas without my kids as my daughters are in New York and couldn't afford to travel this year but they are going to Missouri to see my son and his daughters for weekend. I do felt sad about it but I felt I am very lucky to have Edward as he has been wonderful to me.Today my son from Missouri called me on the VP and I was happy to see my grandgirls Branetta and Beverly. They have grown a lot since they went back to thier parents after fostering them for one and half year a year ago. Edward did tried to see if he could find a cheaper flight for me to go visit this month but no lucky due to high flight cost for last minute. I will be fine with my husband for now. I had my hair colored and cut this morning and my husband really like it. It is now medium golden brown. It is new color for me and I like it. I have always wanted to be more of drama with my hair but never had any courage to do that. It is just that I am always aware of what will other people think when they look at me. I have changed my type of style of dressing. I used to just have tee shirt and jeans or jogging pants. Since i got married and I have noticed that I started to dress more nicely and better than before. I believe I am more happier and want to look good for my husband as he is always nicely dressed compared to my ex husband. I took my time to ponder on my life with Edward now. I do felt that I am more relaxed and get more confience in myself now. I often wonder why I had to put up with ex and thought it was all my fault. It will take more time to get more confience in myself fully as there is some moment that I was not too sure about myself.

My First Jewelry work!

My first Jewelry that I made for my mother in law for Christmas gift. It was so easy to make and I also made earrings, bracelet that night.  I never thought it was that easy. I hope that she will like it. She loves necklaces.

I will post more pictures of bracelet and earrings later. It really relaxed me and i didnt realize that the time went by fast. I am looking foward to make more and learn about beading, jewerly crafts.
