Hello, it's me.....

 

A little birdie told me that if I don't stop by to say hello every once in a while I will lose touch with bloggers and soon fade away into the sunset.
And I always sit up and take notice when a bird starts speaking to me!
 

I really have been busy. I promise I'm not sitting around eating bon bons and watching TV. We've been doing Spring touch up on our home. Oh, and I've recently converted my spare basement room into a sewing room now too. I'll have to show you photos of that soon.
 


Tim and I also just returned from a trip down to Sault Ste. Marie for shopping and appointments. It was a bright and sunny day with 20C(68F) weather. We had nearly four days of beautiful weather, but now as I sit and look out the window I see snow flakes zooming past (it's very windy today). I heard at physio today that the forecast is calling for freezing rain.
 Really? I refuse to believe this. I think I will close the curtains and pretend it's not happening.
 My crocuses have bloomed now so I'm sure we've turned the corner even if it is going to be cold for this coming week. Fingers crossed!
 
 
I've had a request for more of my mittens from the Yukon. It does seem strange sewing wool mitts at this time of year. I realize though that summer is the busiest time of year for Yukon businesses, so I'm happy to oblige!
Please pray for the earthquake victims in both Ecuador and Japan. My goodness, if watching the news  these days doesn't prompt a person to want to pray I don't know what will.
 
Blessing to you all-Kim

  3. I had to laugh at the line 'down to Sault Ste Marie'. I hope the snow as the melt-in-a-minute kind!

  8. The earthquake news is so awful..I have prayed for the victims and for their families. Devastating. I find it reprehensible that more attention has been paid to politics lately on the news channels. I hope spring will get a foothold in your world soon..I think we are in the clear, but still have to deal with these awful storms. I don't recall it ever raining so much as it has lately.

  9. I love your spring bouquet on the kitchen table Kimberly. I hope the freezing rain didn't materialize. I see mixed precipitation for one night early next week here. :( Can you believe how fast April is going by? The earthquakes are horrible and so many have lost their lives, loved ones and homes etc. It is very tragic. Take care and I hope you get some more spring weather soon. xx Pam
