I see something green!

Our old lawn mower was purchased from Lowe's in the mid-1980's. It lasted (with a lot of TLC and patience) until the end of last mowing season. Poor Donald (my son) had to keep picking up pieces and parts and reinstalling them every time he'd mow the grass. Over the weekend, after much deliberation (with himself) and internet searches, he decided to buy a John Deere mower (also from Lowes). Even though he doesn't like to have his picture made, he stopped long enough for me to take this photo of him and his new mower. (I think he likes it!)

I spent Saturday with my daughter and we went to Winston-Salem to search for a new mattress for her bed. I decided to spend the night at her house and had a good time playing with the Grand-dog. Wish I had photos of that!! Lucky dog is a delight to be around (but somewhat hyperactive), and her favorite thing to play is "fetch & fling". She sure got me over my fear of dogs!!

On the projects list....I finished up this weeks Barrister's Blocks and am coming down the home stretch with the Vintage afghan. I want to finish up that afghan before hot weather sets in (it is predicted to be near 80 later this week!)  Until later....God Bless.

Congrats also on Donald's new mower and your new dishwasher.(Just catching up on blog reading).

I'm happy to see green grass and all the other signs of spring. I hear lots of bird singing right now. Looking forward to seeing your projects.

I have something going on, but not fiber related. Tis a wee secret at the moment.
Stay in touch friend. Happy Spring!!!!!!!!!!
