What is new?

Everything is new.  How to use a new computer is new..... Where are all my files?  How do I find them?  How do I manipulate things on the screen?  Well, I am learning... but in the meantime... I guess I will need to be patient.  I can do that!  (haha!) 

This is what I have to do!  I have no other choice!  haha! 

just a little doodle to enjoy 

Technology snaffoo and other stuff too

I feel like I dropped off the planet.... my wee laptop gave up the ghost and died.....
I haven't decided what to do to replace my trusty old friend... but I am finally getting creative with alternative choices without it.   Soooooo I tried using my husband's desktop..... and it works just fine... but it is a bit hairy about keeping my "stuff" separate from his "stuff"..... so I think I am going to have to break down and go looking for a replacement (computer- that is, not husband... just in case you were a bit confused there.)

In the meantime.... I am giving this iPad a go at this.... hopefully it does the job... even if there are a million typos due to the "help" it insists on providing me with..... with auto correct changing what I thought I wanted to say into something that would never come out of my mouth ....

Sooooo, on that note..... here is what I have been up to this weekend.  Just a little painted hand lettering to keep me out of trouble.  I am totally in love with how this turned out.  

Angels among us

We all have a lot to be thankful for.  I could focus on all the "stuff" that is not so great- because I have "stuff"... just like anyone, but today I am choosing to focus on the good.  We got a brand new grand-baby yesterday morning.  After some "scary bits" during labor, all ended well for both the baby and the mom.  We are grateful.  
Today is going to be spent with the older kids to pass the time whilst mom is still in the hospital.  We are going to bake cookies and decorate them.  Maybe we will make her a little gift.... (We will see how the cookie baking goes with a 2 and 4 year old!  haha! )  
In the meantime, I have a lovely pot of soup simmering and some cornbread ready to bake.  
Times like these make you feel thankful!
