welcome ! |
happy surprise
I am happy that DH's haircut, came out perfectly this time... I'm okay at the job but not consistent!
DH says neither is the hairdresser he pays, so.... and his hair grows fast. I learned from watching lots of videos on how to cut men's hair.
Books of some form
I am enjoying both my audio book, a woman mourns the loss of her husband and holds a woman's weekend with good friends from stages of her life...and it's really good
and my E Book continuing my Fortune in Louisiana series. I LOVE to find a series to tuck into
Cherry Cheese Danish |

Prompt do you like ice skating, either watching others or yourself? Tell us about learning to skate, if you go now, indoor or outdoor.
Our family used to go to NC regularly when I was growing up. There was an indoor rink there where I tried to learn as a pre teen. When I lived in Canada I skated outdoors, but it was so bumpy for my skill level. I took a beginner class where we were indoor. The problem was there was a mens hockey practice that went on after our lesson and they looked like wild animals skating around us at high speed if we didn't manage to get to safety before they were released!
As a couple my dh and I went to Lake Placid every year where I spent part of every afternoon watching Olympic hopefuls taking lessons in the Olympic rinks. I loved it, and wrote stories about it while I sat there. Nowadays I watch competitions on TV.
I don't know why but I've been crying missing my beautiful boy. Was it the allergy pills we gave him? he was just 5, and so many dogs die early here. But the loss is real.
Now Please visit these folks to see what they liked this week, and answer my prompt if you don't mind.

we send big hugs to you... your danish looks really good, a perfect idea for this time...
Your gold heart painting is even more wonderful because of that reference -- thank you! And oh my, that danish looks good, I could eat the whole thing! I enjoyed your skating reminiscences, especially your analogy about the hockey players, lol.
I firmly believe no medication you gave Milo caused his cancer. So please don’t blame yourself in any way. Your pastry looks delicious. And the use of the gold in your projects is lovely.
I do love making things, and love seeing what you've made - it's definitely soothing to the soul! I missed that you had a prompt for us this week, so didn't write about it in my post, but, yes, I did lots of ice skating when growing up. My dad would flood a low spot in the backyard and let it freeze. Then we could skate around and around to our hearts' content!
I love seeing your projects. You are always so creative and your danish looks delicious!
Your quilt sure is pretty. Oh boy, I could probably eat that whole danish, yum. Hugs as you always miss your special Milo, it does get easier but it takes so darn long. Thanks for joining Angel Brian's Thankful Thursday Blog Hop!
Stop beating yourself up. There is nothing you did or didn't do that caused Milo's illnesses. It could very well have been something in his genetic background. On a happier note, it nice to see one of your many Valentine quilts on display. And I crave some of that cherry danish, although I would never make one for just me.

LeeAnna, that Valentine Quilt is stunning. It never would have occurred to me to add beading, but I may have to borrow your idea – it adds pop. Very beautiful.
Yes, fiber arts soothe my soul as well…especially in these times. Beautiful painting!
I enjoyed Five-Star Weekend as well.
Yes, the loss is real. I still have Mia’s ashes and the painting you sent me above my desk. Poor Chole is so confused I’m sure as I often call her Mia….but there was only one Mia.
Danish and so much more of beauty. Sending you aloha hugs. <3
That cherry pastry looks delicious. I like that valentines quilt.
Of course, I like making stuff. And I have been cutting hair for years: my husband's, my boys', my neighbors, mine. I like doing it and furthermore, it saves so much money I'd rather spend on yarn and fabric. :-) All the best to you! Regula
I love the look of your baking…I bet it was so tasty. I’m sending you huge hugs to help with your mourning…you are not to blame in any way my friend.
Hugs,

Everything you bake/cook looks delicious and I love food photos. What a pretty Valentine hanging! Love to see all your creativity output. I still wonder if my letting Murphy eat the odd apple core led to her dying...found out apple seeds can be toxic to dogs. So I understand the questioning. But like Murphy, you two gave Milo such an awesome life...the very best. Try to let your thoughts rest with that. Beautiful photo of him too.
I love that pastry. It's making me 'peckish'!
Here a really big hug for you! I know about mourning. It causes physical pain.
Keep on crafting! It's good for the soul.
Big hug,
Lisca
Your Valentine quilt is beautiful and I admire your talent. I used to ice skate as a kid growing up in North Dakota. I loved it, but will not be trying it as an aging adult! As always, I am sending love and hugs as you deal with the loss of your dear dog. Thank you for linking up.
I went roller skating and ice skating. I was abysmal at both, but roller skating was a little more fun - good music and not cold. We never stop missing our pups....they are just pure joy in our worlds. Thinking of you and sorry to be so late to this post.
