TGIF. The days are going by so swiftly, here it is Friday again.
It is cold outside, 14 degrees right now, but colder earlier. Just went over to DD, Melinda's house to give her the tray after putting a saw tooth on the back to hang it.
Think I'll paint Memory Boxes today. Maybe a couple will be the Lace designs of Arlene Linton. They are quick and easy and look elegant, I think.

Today was Laundry Day. BTW, I'm still using my Sears Kenmore washer and dryer we bought back in 1982! Of course, just the two of us now, but had it when I had 3 children.
We had just a skiff od snow last night, and it's very cold out. Took the tray over to give Melinda and she liked it. She has sunflowers in her kitchen.
Got my beautiful Valentine card today from Liz Macchi. She sure know how to make cards!
Hummm cold day, good for porkcops, turnips, and cornbread. Good ole southern cooking.
till tomorrow.......

What a dreary day , today here in my niche of Kentucky. Maybe I'll get my Valentine swap today and brighten up my day, eh? lol. Thanks to Tolegranny for some one on one instructions for my Blog, appreciate that. I'm still learning.
We've been having Blue birds flittering around their boxes. Makes one think of Spring, but isn't it a bit early? Most definetely will have to clean out their box, maybe that's what they are trying to tell me.
I'm off to eat something, feeling hungry.

Tuesday

Well I can't say I accompolished a single thing today. Sad, but true.
I have to get to painting or I'll become "stale". Daughter gave me a
pretty wooden tray for my BD. so think I'll paint a big sunflower on
it and use the original brown background. Will post it when finished, if
it gets off the "painting" board.

I'm still trying to learn this blog thing! Can't seem to get it the way I'd like it to look.
Think I'll go eat my last piece of birthday cake.
Maybe paint something this evening.

Hi I'm Doris Dolin and welcome to my endeavor to set up a Blogspot. I call it " Musings" 'cause I seem to ramble a lot, lol. I now live in Tomahawk, Ky. Transplanted from Ravenswood, WV.
We've lived here now for 13 years,

Seems like everyone else is doing Blogs so , why not moi?

Today has been a special day for me. I've been blessed to live to be 80 years YOUNG and in fairly good health, which I thank my God for. I am the last surviving member of a Family of
Mother, Father and seven children. I was the youngest out of seven.
I met my Soul mate in High School and we have been married for 60 years.
He is also my wonderful wood cutter and best encourager of my crafting and painting.

I will try and remember to update this Blog with pictures, musings , etc. from time to time.
