I'm HERE, not "there", or "somewhere else"

February!
The days and weeks are have gone quickly. I've cleaned house, and made at least a dent in the endless battle with clutter. I've made and kept appointments that I didn't want to make - or keep....such as the one yesterday with the Ophthalmologist to get my retinas checked. (A relief to find out that all is well in spite of some discomfort and lightening flashes). And, I've joined Facebook! Looks like that may take some discipline, time-wise, but it will help fill in evenings that still seem long and "empty".
A little later this month I'm flying to Arizona to visit my son and family. I wanted to drive so that I could see some friends along the route...but that didn't work out. I also plan a few days visit to Pam (used to be Tilley) and her husband in California. That will be a first, and we're both looking forward to it.
I'm working on some sewing for my 6 year old granddaughter in Arizona, hoping to finish before I go. I used to LOVE to sew, but now I'm out of practice and sometimes feel so clumsy! I'm hoping this will awaken some of the old creativity that has been dormant for awhile!

Sounds good GMA and congrats on dusting off the sewing kit:-)
I'm sure Victoria will be thrilled.
How nice that you are going to get to see Pam! Tell and hug her hi.
Hope you have a really good trip too. Wish I could join you.

Sounds like fun, getting out the sewing. I go in spurts of sewing and then nothing;)
