Onion Top Arch Swap

These are the returns from the Onion Top Arch Swap.  Excellent work by all artists!

These are the ATCs I made for the Onion Top Arch swap.  They are now on their way to Medford, OR.  I should have returns shortly after the 15th.  Gotta tell you, I totally messed up on this swap.  I did not follow the directions - each card was suppose to be different.  Oh well, the host excused my error and will swap as usual.  WHEW!

You Can Always Use a Little Help

Chin Rest

Such a Kinda Weekend

Irene visited for most of Saturday and lingered well into Sunday.  Rain and lots of wind.  Ended up getting just short of 3 inches of rain and no damage.  Whew!  When all cleared later in the early evening, we went for a 3 mile walk to lubricate the old bones.  That route through Millersburg was just a tad too long for me.  Won't be doing that again. 

Selling Stuff

So we are trying to thin out some of our belongings and I put a few items on Craigslist.  Yesterday we sold Brandon's old refrigerator and microwave from college for a big 45 bucks.  The couple showed up and paid us with 45 singles.  Very funny.  Seems she is a waitress.  That almost beats the woman who came to pick up the plastic drawer units I had priced at 15 dollars and opened up her wallet and said "it appears I only have 14 but could dig through my change" - REALLY, really.....

Pray Mantis Pray

Look what I spotted in my garden this afternoon.  Cool!

New JAM

Received this JAM today and since I didn't have a lot going on, I worked on it.  I added the postage stamp, stamped and added map pieces, solid corners and the coin.  I just love finishing up JAMs, especially when I receive one that has a lot of plain background showing.
