Pictures!!!

Thought I'd share some pictures with ya.

1. That doily is the funky one I bought myself for my birthday. Isn't it cheery and fun? Like a giant cobweb- on meth. I love the bright color- very retro. I think it looks great even with my primitive things, though. Matches the garland of flowers nicely.
2. There's a picture of my swing that my sweet man got me for my birthday. I am lovin' it! I sat on it with my neice, last night, while we crocheted together. She is making dish rags in the shades of sunshine. I am working on a doily in Darcie Taupe. By the way, Darcie, I get my thread at Hobby Lobby and Walmart. It's 10 weight and the brand is Aunt Lydia's. Hope that helps. I also use a #7 or #8 hook. I'll bring you some thread when I see you in September, K? Yes, that is my "purse." I finally gave up trying to carry a "cute" bag and resigned myself to something more the size of a peice of "carry-on" luggage. You need room for crochet thread and diabetic supplies. And a small child, if needed!
3. The last picture is of the view from my swing! The June skies are something to behold with their big puffy clouds and the clear blue of early summer. My closest neighbors' house is visible- about 1/2 mile. His name is Laverne and he's what I call a "good ole boy." Some one you can call on when you're in a bind. If you have the guts to pass the rottweiler and the doberman...
