Hearts And Flowers....




Don't panic! You didn't miss Valentine's Day.... I'm just feeling happy right now - because this is the time of year when I go into the stores and see all kinds of heart themed items! I love heart themed items! This is a cup I bought a couple of years ago. Isn't she sweet....


Oh, another reason I like this time of year - it is almost time for NASCAR to start up again! Vroom Vroom!!

Gurgle gurgle - down the drain goes....

my soap opera "One Life to Live"! The last show aired last Friday... There were hopes that it would continue online - but that hope was lost a month ago.... And now all the actors are scattering to the winds - trying to find new jobs. I started watching One Life to Live many years ago - after my favorite soap was cancelled. That was "Another World". I sobbed and sobbed so hard while watching the last show. I think part of it was I had really come to love the characters - but a bigger part was the fact that my Mom watched it too - and we used to talk on the phone about it all!
I never came to care for One Life to Live as much - but I still liked it quite a bit - and teared up a few times on Friday. Since they thought it would continue online - the stories did not get "ended"... So now I will have to make up my own endings. I know that four of the characters are moving over to General Hospital - and possibly more will come on later. So I will start watching that now. Altho I haven't watched it since I was in high school - and that was really a long time ago! I remember rushing home from school so I could sit there and watch - LOL!

Baby, It's.....





well, it was rather nippy out there at the beginning of the week. But yesterday was pleasant and today even more so. Altho, I'm one of the people who really like cold weather over hot any day!! Even with it being 31 on Monday and the wind whipping around like crazy, I still got out for my walk. Felt like an ice cube when I got home - but I still felt energized!!



I went to the yarn shop today and picked up this pretty pretty shade of green yarn... What will it be? Why leaves of course! I'm going to knit a scarf of leaves... When I get a bit of it done, I will be sure and show you!
