On YouTube I’ve been discovering more craft based channels. I don’t think anything that can be cut, fastened, glued, twisted, or sewn hasn’t or isn’t being done. Amazing art. I’m developing a craving for decoupaging balloons with lace dollies.
Last gas up at the cheaper gas station was $4.00/gallon for regular unleaded. It was a shock for a second there. At other gas pumps, I’ve seen $4.59/gallon. 😱
An increase of arthritis discomfort in my knee is not a shock. I had a recent cortisone shot that helps, but I still can’t walk far. An exam for a possible knee replacement is scheduled.
Spring is at peak here in Vermont. After all the rain, the green everywhere is just stunning. Warmer sunny weather is welcome. Alas, there was a recent frost warning.
Then paranoia sets in blocking my sunshine. My mother often said when I was a kid, Don’t plan because something will always go wrong.
I heard the heartbreak in her voice. Today, I feel my own when planning ahead. For her, I can say in my early years, events proved her right. What cycle is this that dampens dreams? I stop going on here about what I’d like to do, plans I make so as to break that cycle of something going wrong.
Somethings can also go right!
Have a Right Good Weekend

Out comes my handy sewing tin, and away I go hand basting the edges. The incentive to get out a sewing machine builds.
Using bed pillows as the pillow forms, the closure is planned for tiny grommets that can be used to lace up the open edge. Easy on and off to wash.
