flu

    I can not wait for spring! There seems to be a point where winter is just too long, that and the flu struck. My students had been falling one by one, yet I thought that I would get away clean. Boy was I wrong!

    I slept for a week straight, and when I awoke the work was piled up and it was almost valentine's day.
    I had great dreams of sharing cookie recipes, starting my garden, working on the kitchen... that all went out the window.

    I have however been sewing valentines for my students. I had an old felted red sweater, some lavender and yarn. Two hours later I have valentines for all 15 of my sweet little kindergarteners.



    Now all I have to do is write a story to go with them. Once upon a time...

fabric

bug helping out

     A new fabric store opened and I could not wait to go in. It was bliss, the kind of place that I could spend hours and way to much money in. I walked out with three kinds of fabric and a jar of buttons, though I could have walk out with much more. 
    
And because it is spring, or at least will be with is a month or so, I decided to sew a skirt. A few hours later and after discovering some new things about my sewing machine I now have a skirt. With pockets. It was a day well spent. 


    A day that was so warm all the windows and doors were open. A day that made all the little flowers happy.
Now if it would only start to turn green… 
finished!
