    Sorry I haven't been on. Have been real sick now for 3 weeks. Finally broke down and went to the dr on Monday, acute bronchitis (almost pneumonia) cause I waited so long. Coughing constantly and running fevers as high as 102. Dh kept telling me to go to the dr but hey I thought I could handle it, beside what can they do just for a fever and I had cough syrup. Anyway my dr called me smarty pants. LOL

    Sp #1 humid subtropical climate, town named after a war chief and I have had you before
    Sp #2 founded 1957, known as W--------- Wonderland

    Thats all folks have to go and crawl back into bed now. Dh is putting the packages into the mail today so be on the lookout.

    Secret pal,

    In Java and Bali temple ruins contain figures whose garments are patterned in a manner suggestive of your favorite type fo fabric.

    Can you guess who you are yet?

    My secret pal package came in the mail today! PeginCo sent me a special box full of goodies! She made me some of the cutest gifts... the bag is a knitting bag with a beanbag bottom, so it won't tip over when a ball of yarn is bouncing around in it. I can knit right out of it. And she made a matching tea wallet... so now all I have to order at the cafe is a cup of hot water! Love both of these, Peg! So thoughtful. She also sent me fat quarters galore, and lots of I Spy fabric pieces and two patterns to try them in. She found an applique that looks just like my kitty! And a bag of Jelly Bellys that will be much appreciated later on, when I get another 5 lbs. off. (It's hard to leave those alone for now.)

    Thank you so much, Peg! I hope your package comes soon.

    Yea! I'm glad you like it! I just loved that knitting fabric....I'm can't knit, so it was fun to make something for someone who does. I had a TON of fun browsing your etsy shop - You are very talented!

    Awesome pkgs. coming in today. Today with humidity it was 111 degrees! I did what I could outside (I'm a code enforcement officer) but hurried back into my government vehicle with a/c and headed straight back to the office only to find that the rest of the other officers did the same lol! Will be working this weekend on my SP pkgs and its going to be so much fun!

    Thank you so much again, Peg. There are loads of tutes and videos online to teach you how to knit, if you really want to learn. It's relaxing and fun and a much more 'portable' than quilting!

    You are very talented too!
