Tina just graduated from high school. I have always been the short on in the photos.
Look at the hair do's> yikes.

This is Javier age 7, he's a white ninja. He loves ninjas.

A Good Visit

noreply@blogger.com (Patt) — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 02:28:00 +0000

It had been a while since I had seen Tina and hubby and kids so they came over to visit me yesterday. Mia Bella really enjoyed the visit as I did. this visit our new puppy came out of hiding and as you can see both dogs loved Mia Bella and her them. soo cute!! Coley had a good visit as well but he was inclined to butt heads with the dogs. They have a massive dog and he is used to his big o dog and running and roughhousing with it. My dogs like to play but not quite the Coley way. I think Coley wore his Mommy out trying to keep him from squishing the dogs. lo.

My daughter and her hubby and kids came to visit me the other day so I had the chance to give Mia Bella the pink tutu I had made for her. She has started taking ballet class so I thought she'd love a tutu.

Well she totally and I mean totally ignored the tutu. Coley on the other hand, had fun with it.

Then a day or so later I got a call from Tina. She just finished up a photo shoot with Mia Bella and her tutu. Tina said Mia Bella had the tutu on for days!!! Check out the model. She is having a total ball.

You surely can't tell by the photos but Mia Bella is very shy, even here she is shy. But boy does she get bold when the camera is on her. Love her!! ANd Coley, he isn't shy at all and he is soooo cute. Love him!!!

Tweaking the meds and Mia Bella and Coley

noreply@blogger.com (Patt) — Wed, 22 Jul 2009 22:43:00 +0000

So here I am, not lost in the woods at all, just wandering around trying to find a good spot to stop and picnic. hahahhaah

Went to the new doc, got all my meds tweaked and upped and now am waiting to see if this works for me or not.

Of course with a new doc comes lots more tests to see where the body is at. I've got a fasting blood test coming up and a mamogram and paptest, which I know is way over due. Also have physical therapy scheduled for my shoulder and diabetes group and oh yeah xrays of my replaced knee. It's not working right any more either. Also got new meds for pain control. HOpe I find a level that works ok for me.

For right now I've not really done anything needle wise except a cloth for a group I'm in. Just making a few silver pendants and charms to sell in my etsy shop. I sold 2 items last week. One in etsy and one in my artfire shop. And am still ordering materials for my pendants even tho I'm not making the $$ to pay for it. Just like yarn. Always wanting more even thou I have a boat load of it. lol

Hubby and 2 gkids outside in pool, finally got it filled up and the floater in and all is well with them.

I did finally get up to see my grandaughter and gson yesterday. Mia's birthday was July 2 and I gave her gifts to her yesterday , almost 3 weeks later. I swear I better get feeling better so I can start taking myself places. shoot.

words

noreply@blogger.com (Patt) — Fri, 10 Jul 2009 21:23:00 +0000

I have got a few good words from you all so far. Of course I loved the k2tog that Jane suggested. I've already put that on a disc.
Also have the word waiting on one.
It could mean so many things. Like waiting to have your baby, or waiting for the right person to come along, or waiting to win the lottery, or waiting to hear your fave song on the radio. Waiting for it to rain or snow or waiting for the flowers to start sprouting. See it could mean lots of things.
So now give me some more very meaningful words please!!

A Question for you

noreply@blogger.com (Patt) — Thu, 09 Jul 2009 19:33:00 +0000

So I'm in the process of making some silver hand stamped discs for jewelry. My question is:

What word or words would you like to have on a disc? I want to make a few to put in my shop but need to put something on them that anyone would buy. I can also make personalized stuff but this is samples for my shop and I would like someone to buy them hopefully. Below are a few examples of what I'm talking about. Please leave a comment with what you'd like if you were shopping for jewelry.

Rayo checks out the pool

noreply@blogger.com (Patt) — Sun, 21 Jun 2009 00:15:00 +0000

We finally got some plants going on the patio. Just a few tomatoes and the like. And the kids and Rayo got to enjoy the new pool for a bit. Pa has gone to get a cover for the pool as we put it under our only tree. That was the only place we had to put the darn pool but it worked out pretty good. Of course I'll never get to use the pool. HOw in the heck would I get in and out? And it's only half filled with water cuz Pa forget to get the chemicals needed for the water. Hope he remembers that while he checks out covers for it.

NOw can't wait for it really to be hot enough to go for a dunk.
