WOYWW 765

Welcome,  a little late but our time is  7 A.M.  And I forgot yesterday that today is the day we visit desks and greet our  all over the World friends !   HERE at STAMPING GROUND

Missed last week, we had 2 local funerals, one was  my husband's life long neighbor/friend all these years and another one tomorrow traveling to his cousin's.  They all have lived a great life into 80's and 90's  So Blessed. 

Still working on getting  the storage room in order, got all of Christmas put away, added Valentines to 2 small trees and decorated one  window 

I've collected hearts a long time, the very top are all colored glass and quite pretty with the blinds open 
and sun reflection  and are up there all the time. The longer hanging ones are ones I added for February. 

Some papers I marked with black paint/markers to use in a journal I plan on putting together. Will add other colors as I decide. 

MY DESK;
Enjoying the clean organized area I have once again.  A tiny journal I'll share inside hopefully next week. Some fabric bits and tiny pages.   Some black stitching on brown paper,  I spent a day getting my bobin/thread and sewing machine back in working order. !!!!!  Whahoo.........................partaking in UK's    Artist Trading Coins and Cards UK doing ATC's and ATC COINS. Not many partake but I love making a few a week. THE Collage Are Collective, that I did the 3x3's daily closed down.  And I am missing the great group that was so supportive and creative.  A new group was offered but I don't pay to belong to my crafty fun.

Well hopefully I can make visits today and maybe again later on Friday.  Thanks for all who made comments last posting .  Here temps are to be in the 50's with SUNSHINE,   totally  an unusual winter.  Not much SUNSHINE, Lots of FOG,    
I wish you all a wonderful week

#763 WOYWW

Welcome, some wild winter going on across the USA....IOWA today we had SUNSHINE, No Wind, but  Minus  -25 wind chill...COLD.. Here on the farm for the past 4 days We have very little snow. The strong winds 40/50 blew away the snow, our road was good, the blacktop big drifts on one side, and the main hiway had been pretty much snow blowed out.  Lots of accidents, We just stayed hunkered down home.  One main Interstae from Southern Iowa where my son lives, Avenue of the Saints was still  shut down going North . 


I have really had about 4 hrs a day to redo my Crafty Space and I so much enjoyed it. Found things I've totally forgotten about, and even my floor space is free.  I have a bit to do in the north end of this area but it's all fabric/Christmas to put away.  

It's the day we share our desks and HERE at Stamping Ground is reason why. 







Haven't been working on a project I can share as yet.  We haven't yet been able to gather with his family due to weather.  Hopefully soon.   This photo below came up ????it's one above and I cannot delete it If anyone knows why blogger changed  prompts let me know.  I spent 3 hrs trying to get my email and back up to work.  Shut all down came back 2 hrs later and WHALA...seems to be ok.  ??? 


Have a wonderful week....Happy WOYWW

WOYWW #762

Happy Day to All,  It's 5 am here and about my normal time to rise and shine.
I missed last week, totally confused as to what day it was, and we both were struggling with sinus/aches/pains/no appetite.  But back to normal and have some energy. Drinking Gatorade !  Kind of dehydrated I think.  It's the season, but I think all the germs will be settled, as we now have SNOW and COLD temps.  

Weather in USA is tragic from coast to coast..Here in Iowa about 4 counties are missing the heavy 11 in snow fall and we are one of them. about 5 inches. Now Winds 30/50 predicted. more snow and very low temps 10 to subzero thru the weekend.  Will be ok, if we keep electricity.  

We had a wonderful time visiting my son and family, Dec 31/Jan 1....with some great weather for travel time,  Got new photos.  Cael junior at ISU, Cami freshman AZ State, Cash sophmore high school. 


I have been putting away Christmas. General within rooms, and the crafty space.
Now working on Valentine's ...I'll share a few after we meet with his siblings in a week or so. The snow put a damper on our get together.  

Little Bailey sleeps a lot during the day !  ...going on 15 and so well cared for !!!  

Well here's the reason for the post.  Ms Julia at Stamping Ground gathers us up thru Mr. Linky and we share our desks, our highs and lows.  It's a great group and I am thankful. 
I am working on 2 smaller tables as it's quite cool downstairs.  I can create quite the mess. My mind has so many ideas I can't keep up...It must be an age thing. 
Wishing you all the very best during these winter months  Hoping you have sunshine in many ways,  Happy WOYWW
