Hmn

Well , it's been a long , busy day. We drove up to my parents house and visited for a while , and dropped of some late Christmas presents for them , my sister , and my niece. My little family came down with the flu virtually ON Christmas , and my loving parents did not want it - hence the late gifting , lol. My sister had left gifts for us which were a big hit. My dad played quietly in the corner w/Brady's (my son) toy for quite a while , giggle. It's a nifty little thing I admit - you think of something , and it asks questions of you til it figures it out - and it's pretty smart! I got an art book I'd wanted , which was a HUGE surprise because I didn't even know I wanted it until last week - my sis is good , tell ya what. Spooky , kinda , but good. ;-D

My other gift was even cooler though - I got a small and beautifully soldered glass box , with a bit of blue-green dichroic for the base and walls of this beautiful old-looking wavy glass (which I MUST have) , all held together with a pretty curled wire and glass beads - I LOVE IT! I'm so proud of her artsy little self , I had no idea lol. Thank you SO MUCH Suzie Q! I will post pictures shortly after I get 'round to taking them - probably in the next day or so. I've got some other things to photo and thought I'd just take them all at once. S'not my fav thing to do. Shocking , I know...

Hmn. It's just dawned on me I don't know how to add a photo to a post. Perhaps I should check into that , lol.

Ah - turns out it's not that dificult. Thank goodness - if it was too technical I'd just never get it - took me 10 minutes to figure out how to edit a saved draft.

Off to baste this turkey and have a lovely late dinner - I made this whole thing just so we could have 'real' turkey sandwiches and a salad tonight - yum!

Bye guys!

I like your Blog Kim - very pretty colors - now you have to post some of your work. It's really easy with the editing buttons, if I can do it anyone can, trust me. Your turkey sounds delicious. We had the flu this last week too, so we didn't feel that great plus I have physical limitations from a disability which keeps me from many things I want to do, frustrates me to no end! But heh, I have art! That makes me happy, your dinner sounds delicious and I have a small turkey in the freezer and I think I will go take it out now and defrost it as my hubby is off tomorrow and I didn't hardly cook at all this week for him cause I was not feeling well. Turkey sandwichs sound great to me, thanks for the idea! Your new friend, Barb in Sacramento

Kim, I love the pictures on your blog and look forward to seeing more. I'm a new blogger too and wasted a lot of time worrying about what I could do instead of just doing it. Carol
