    What is "toi crocheting"? Love to crochet; am learning Tuisian crochet.
    Bad typing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Completely understand! My "Tuisian" should have been "Tunisian"!! LOL
    It wasn't my post, but since I'm such a poor typist, I recognized the mistake immediately.

    And look at my siggy line--------I'd not recognize your mispelling! lol

    I make candles, soaps, lotions. Pamper me stuff! I really enjoyed it before but now I love quilting, reading and quilting more. At least I love the making the tops part haven't quite conquered the quilting part. :(

    Personally I love all of the mentioned hobbies but I like to do counted cross stitch and assemble kits for a friend for her business of teaching classes on cross stitch. Gardening is another fav.

    I listen to audio books from the Library. Since I am no longer working I read more as I do not drive as much.
    I just read "Heaven is for Real' written by Todd Burpo about his son Colton. There is also a book "Akiane" about a young girl who began painting at age four from 'visions from God' Both of these are excellent books.

    I worked with a friend that tried and tried to teach me tatting and I am left and her right handed and I just could not get it. I can knit and crochet but can't catch on to tatting. Wish I could though it is so cute.

    wolph33, your photo of your dog looks just like our Whitey that we had to put down 2 years ago. He was a flat coat retriever and such a great dog. Actually he was our daughter's dog, but as he aged and had increasing pain in his hips, he became irritable and snapped at the kids so we brought him to live with us rather than having him put down sooner. He lived with us for 3 more years before he just couldn't walk anymore and the vet said we needed to remove his pain. We live in the country and he was happy here.
