I'll make sure Niek has clean sheets on all the beds for utter bliss.

(Something easier said than done at my house.) According to the Buddhist monk, Thic Nhat Hanh, when washing the dishes after dinner one should pay attention to the act of washing the dishes. Sounds simple. Really isn't. <br /><br />May you find your summer groove soon!Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16590452473318118140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007999093281954902.post-76515174606589912022010-06-09T17:42:35.748-04:002010-06-09T17:42:35.748-04:00What happened is that we (and I include myself her...What happened is that we (and I include myself here) grew up, and have to take responsibility for all those magical events that used to be in our parents arena.<br /><br />I too would like to stop time now and then, or take a side trip back to the good old days, but I'm not sure I would really like to live there all the time...remember, all they had for stitching needlepoint was wool and painted #10 canvas, and for other embroidery there was cotton floss. Just sit back and think about all the "modern" developments in all of our textile arts.<br /><br />Strawberry Shortcake looks so scrumptious, and Miss Laura is also making me a little crazy.<br /><br />Just hang in there!Edyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09891231764552459663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007999093281954902.post-76061979000470111352010-06-09T16:06:52.682-04:002010-06-09T16:06:52.682-04:00Wow, that was a fun walk down memory lane!

I am much more a sweatshirt and jeans person more so than shorts and a bathing suit. Ugh. I checked out Laura J. Perin's blog. Daisy Chain looks great! Can't wait to see you working on that one.

If I read the blog on a regular basis, I would have to curl up and hide under the bed in shame for being oh, so, slackerish in the stitchery department. That being said, I am still buying a couple of her charts and plan on a lot of wonderful needlepoint projects. She is a wonder.

I know what you mean about time flying by. It isn't even summer yet (!) and before you know it, the fall will be upon us once again.
