What follows are just a few of my pictures taken in Newfoundland. My first holiday in 4 years and my very first holiday with my best friend. Nine wonderful happy days.

So I got to thinking about picture blogs and that made me remember I had a blog of my very own but the last time I was here....it wouldn't work for me...I couldn't get it to___________________well nevermind that, it is too complicated.

Leslie, I've downloaded just a few pictures to see if this works...let me know.

Let's sit here

Ryan's Flying day

Ryan had a thrill today...........his flight-student buddy took him up for a flight, on this beautiful clear cold blue-sky day. Ryan got to fly...broken leg and all.

Japanese Garden

Some days you can almost feel spring hiding somewhere.....spring....thoughts to the garden. Check this garden out. I would like to try my hand at something like this.

Finch Ave. P.S. pals.....

January 30, 2005.....Leslie came from Owen Sound, Pam came from Milton to pick me up in Newmarket, and off we went to Wasaga Beach to visit Judy who was staying there with her mum. Lunch, lots of talking, looking into each other's faces for the little girl faces we once had, I guess. We found them! What fun that day was, remembering different kids, all the trouble we used to get into. Although we weren't really ever into trouble, well except for the 'hedge squishing incident', and even though they say I wasn't part of it - maybe I was - because I do remember that little hedge. I thought it was stupid to have such a little hedge. Auch, there is still time to straighten that incident out.

silver and ice

Freezing freezing freezing....and more snow; just as promised. I cacoon on days like these. I love nothing more than settling-in, cozy clothes, chocolate of course and some handiwork. Oh and a good flick.

I made some earrings today and feel like I really accomplished something. Sterling silver and crystals. They were diddley work but I like them!

Time has zipped by. First time I've been to my blog in 3 months. I've not been idle though....never idle....."won't be idle with dispair" (Jewel).

Let's see in one big long rambling sentence let me sum up the year.....many visits from my best pal, Leslie......Sarah McL concert, Tap Dogs, Dalhai Lama, Film Festival, Ryan off to school, Adam working with Bryan....ok too many things to be grateful for to list here.

I bought a sewing maching! Yup, finally did it. It is a small, light but powerful little Bernina machine. So far I'm loving it. Now, will this machine inspire me to get back at sewing, design? I sure hope so. My right brain is never quiet though. Beading has taken a lot of my focus this year, knitting again, painting and my favourite new craft last summer - mosaic. I'm impressed I didn't mosaic everything in sight.

I can't figure this blog out lately......I can't seem to add a picture, colour or link anymore. Hmphfff.

Namaste
