Miss Potter

I've just watched the movie "Miss Potter" that I borrowed from the library. It is the story of Beatrix Potter, who wrote "Peter Rabbit". I rarely buy movies, but I will buy this one. It is such a beautiful and well done movie. The animation is adorable. The scenery is breathtaking. If you can borrow or buy the movie, I'm sure you will like it, too.

Cheerleader purses


These are the cheerleader purses I made for my daughter Chris' cheerleading squad. She asked me to make them. She is their coach and she really loves her girls, so I was happy to make them for her. I don't think they turned out as well as I wanted, but I hope they like them.

Digital Cameras

Aren't digital cameras great! You can take hundreds of pictures and develop only the ones you want. Then you can delete the ones you don't want. Fantastic! I wish my life was like that. I wish I could delete a lot of the things I've said and done. I would go back over my life bit by bit---oh, I shouldn't have said that - delete, I shouldn't have done that - delete. Delete, delete, delete,...... So many dumb, stupid things, ugh, delete them all. I wonder what my life would be like if I had not said or done those things in the first place. I'm just human after all. I've made a lot of mistakes. I'm not perfect. I am so looking forward to going to heaven so that all those dumb, stupid things will be erased. I certainly don't want to remember them for all eternity. Jesus took all my sins away so that I could go to heaven. The biggest mistake would have been to reject Jesus' gift of salvation. Thank you, Jesus.

Sun In My Face

These are the words to a cute little song
sung in the 1930's.

I don't mind any trouble,
I drive gloom from the place,
And I'm one step ahead of my shadow,
'Cause I've got the sun in my face.

I can outrun the devil
If life is just a race
And I'm one step ahead of my shadow,
'Cause I've got the sun in my face.

I'm the sort of person
Who goes around rehearsin'
The smile all day long.

If you'd like to know why
I'm givin' care the go bye,
I've taught my heart
How to sing a song.

There is really no trouble
That a smile can't erase,
And I'm one step ahead of my shadow
'Cause I've got the sun in my face.
