Well here it is, upon us all. My husband and I had already decided to self quarantine 2 1/2 weeks earlier, as I had cold/flu already for too long this season, and we had concern about the information or lack of clarity of the information at that time. Now it is global, and President has declared National Emergency so enough about that, now what to do during the next 3 months as Lietta Rugerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03013387655042340435noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3714011893884499559.post-11231607601081771242019-05-06T13:52:00.002-07:002019-05-06T13:54:09.539-07:00Lovely Ladies, Lovely Group, Prayer ShawlsThis morning I enjoyed crocheting among the Ladies of the knitting/crochet group I joined last week. Whilst they are working on either knitting or crocheting the Prayer Shawls they are creating, the talk being shared is nice, not dramatic, not gossip, just talk. This group of Ladies have long been together and when the Prayer Shawls were blessed this week by the Priest of St Luke's Lietta Rugerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03013387655042340435noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3714011893884499559.post-8590689877022957282019-04-30T17:43:00.000-07:002019-04-30T17:43:11.412-07:00Might Be Time to Expand This Simple Life For Sure! I started this blog and then left it, and now that we (my husband and myself) are older, living a quieter life, watching as so much is changing around us that our old rules don't seem to apply as much to living life any more. So moving on then, I think I want this blog to talk about things that interest me now, gardening, oil painting, crafting, crocheting, Lietta Rugerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03013387655042340435noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3714011893884499559.post-59673603058054238222012-10-10T12:00:00.002-07:002012-10-10T13:15:48.721-07:00Freeze It!We've had a chest freeze that goes back in years to parent's parents. It still works, and over the years that it's been at our home (here on the bay - think moisture!) it has developed rust on the exterior yet works fine on the interior. It is not pretty to look at, and it does it's job - still ticking as the Everready Bunny commercial intones.

It's also a whole new generation of younger people who are making their way for the first time, and living with a changing paradigm from their parents economic understandings when there was a much more prosperous Lietta Rugerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03013387655042340435noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3714011893884499559.post-62880309142212425682011-10-28T07:36:00.000-07:002011-10-28T07:39:17.223-07:00Clay Pot Refridgerator - no electricitySomething I'll keep in mind.

Want to gather some of my different interests into this place. What might be some things that I will post to this blog? Crafts for one, likely not tutorials. Recipes might be another. Hair, fashion and beauty might be one. Skinflint shortcuts, hints, tips would be another.
