Playing with frit again. Here’s a tweaked picture of my Maggie Rose – from a few years ago, before she got chubby. [The poor girl has so many nicknames: Mags, Peanut, Fat-Butt, Magnolia Rosebud … she comes to all of them – especially when food is involved.] Anyway, here’s my glass rendition … fusing in …
WWU: Oh how I wish we could get through this flu season already! I took care of some folks this weekend who were producing … um … ‘body fluids’ in so many WRONG colors and shades (and we won’t even mention the textures or aromas!) … And now, it would appear various strains are spreading …
We all had a great day! And, I’m loving the fact that DH and I are now old enough we don’t have to do the Crazy Christmas Circuit – where you drive your cranky little ones all over the state and back again to make the ‘Christmas rounds’. This is much better! A relaxed family …

Have passed through another year of life … DH likes to say I’m catching up to him. ‘Course I point out he’ll always be OLDER! So far, it’s been [another] busy, productive week: Made candles; went to Metro; spent time catching up/celebrating with my family (phone, visit, phone, phone!); did a little home canine nursing …
