what a crazy experience

Well I have made it to the second day of my adventure. Not much of an adventure really, but I am learning. I am now following 3 different bloggers. Ha It took me forever to figure out how to get to where I wanted but somehow I figured it all out.

The snow is so deep here and we are so sick of it. I want to see some green, green I tell you. Throw in some pinks and butter yellows, ahh , now that is more like it. Spring, well almost , it won't be long. It's on these days that I'm so glad that I am retired and don't have to fight the roads to get to work. I worked in a factory for 30 years here in Kokomo.


Sorry about the Colts losing the big game on Sunday but I think New Orleans Saints really deserved it as well. If we didn't get the Super Bowl win I'm glad the Saints did.

I wonder how some people have the gift of gab. I have a hard time just talking for the sake of doing so.

This is the second day I have felt good. I was down sick with the flu for 4 days. Talk about sick.. I don't want to get that way again anytime soon. One thing has been good about being sick though, I haven't smoked a cigarette now in a week. So I think that something positive has emerged from it.

I have somehow gotten hooked on the Bejeweled game. Don't ask me how I managed to do that because everyone knows that I'm not much into games but I really like playing this game. Oh, David and I have been putting together jigsaw puzzles. We usually do this during the winter months and have just opened up a new puzzle. It's called night lights and is of times square. Gee that reminds me of when we all went to NY. Mom , my 2 aunts, 3 cousins and myself. We had so much fun. Mom is so ready to go back. I wouldn't mind it either. ha

All because of a jelly roll

Today I am doing something that I never thought I'd be doing. I'm blogging. I enjoy reading other blogs and because of a jelly roll here I am.

Let me explain... I belong to several quilt groups and one in particular was commenting on the new jelly roll block of the month quilt starting in March. So off I went in search of the website to check out what is it I'm not aware of. Yes it is a blogger who will be sharing a block a month using what are called Jelly rolls. Ok I've seen jelly rolls before but I've never purchased any so I'm thinking "Now I have to find out how much fabric are in Jelly rolls" before I can continue on with this adventure.

Which led me to where I am now here, blogging because I need to have my own blog space so I could grab that button to make sure I don't miss one single block. Whew.

As well as quilting I am most certainly into knitting and crocheting. Not the greatest in either but I strive to get better. My lastest being knitting socks. I'm also learning how to use my mothers' knitting machines. This is not an easy task. I find knitting can be very frustrating yet so rewarding at the same time.


So here I am Big as Life and ready (or not) for this wacky world of blogging. now off to grab that button
