It’s Conference weekend, so I’m on and off the computer until 1500.

One of my neighbors loaned me a book about the 20th Century. Each page is a month in the calendar, and right now, I’m only up to September 1903.

And speaking of books...when I went up to the community room to pay the rent yesterday, there was a 5th Edition “The Complete Works of Shakespeare” by David Bevington...nearly 2000 pages, on the “FREE!” table. I didn’t even think twice! I snatched that puppy up!

Yes, I know: the last thing I need is another book, but go figger.

In my quiet times, I’m making a new footstool cover to match the rug and furniture. It was an olive green, but I no longer have anything green in my apartment. I’m nearly done with the top, but will have to make a little “tingly-roo” for the top decoration, and for once, I’m going to add a little feminine flounce to something. I’ve always tried to keep my furniture in the classic/comfy mode, figuring I can add frills with the accessories.

So this is a departure for me. Mostly, I’ve had a rather masculine look to things, but hay, I’m 70...I can add a ruffle or two!

I'm getting a lot of use out of this graphic lately:

I’m working on a new design for refrigerator magnets. Not that there’s anything wrong with “JESUS,” but some of my friends aren’t Christian.

Kathleen is still mopey after her nap, but at least she hasn’t thrown up again. Asuncion’s landlord recarpeted their house. She’s very happy. When your carpet is too old, no amount of effort makes it look clean.
