Just love Saturdays.....especially when you get up and the sun is shining!!!!! Off I went this am to grocery shop.....I love avocado, arugula, blue cheese, veggie pizza, bananas, strawberries.....We are sooooo blessed in this country to have sooooo much wonderful fresh food.....
Thought i would do my morning GRATITUDE LIST HERE TODAY.... here are the things I am grateful for today:
Recovery from illness, sleep, all my amazing spiritual and religious friends who really GET what life is about, my  sister, my nephew, my new niece in law, my brother in law Brian and honesty!!!!!!
my bed, my furniture, my painting and crafting talent, the women in my life who are there no matter what, my doctor who is always a good laugh, that i can walk, that i can hear, that i can sing, that i can speak, that i can see the evil - that i want no part of even if it is in my own family. i am also grateful for THE SECRET, The Peaceful Warrior, Joyce, Neil Donald Walsh, Michael Beckwith, and sooooo many others who are here to lead us back home everyday in our hearts and minds.....

That was a small example of how i live my life today.....i laugh and laugh and laugh......and practice gratitude all day long!!!!! I love my life and plan to enjoy it until my last breath!!!!!! I am even grateful to the guy who smokes weed everynight on my floor......I am grateful to him because he reminds me of exactly who I DO NOT WANT TO EVER BE!!!!! A POT HEAD.....hahahhahaaaa.....

I am off now to make some veggie and lentil soup and lemon squares for a treat later!!!!! All the best from Jan's Closet.....

Stichin' and a Braggin'

Today is Friday!!!!! I love Fridays because I get to hang out with some really great women all afternoon!!!! I am a crochet-aholic and I finally joined a craft group of Senior Women who LOVE to make stuff. Usually we get little accomplished because we are busy yaking.....but what fun we have. One woman in the group created the most gorgeous quilts, another crochets blankets and lap rugs.

I have been crocheting all my life.....I create sweaters, scarfs, hats, blankets, rugs, towels, pillows and just about anything else you can imagine!!!!!

Learning Crochet has taken a lifetime.....Learning to read patterns and learning to make up patterns on my own....I LOVE IT.....and I would love to connect with women who love it as much as I do.

I also love to teach crochet......women are soooo creative and when you teach them .... they become amazing designers and work miracles.

So I would love to hear all about the crafts you love to make!!!!! Happy Friday and hope to chat with you soon!!!!!
