New Baby - All Is Well

Our new baby, Austin Roberto, was born 4/11/09. He came home 4/12/09. We all had so much fund welcoming him home. Big Bro Dylan wasn't quite so excited as the rest of us. He's feeling much better about his baby now that his routine has returned. He is interacting very positively with the baby now. Geoffrey and J are signing the lease for their house today. They'll be moving over the weekend. Alan will be able to finished the remodeling of the lower level in pretty short order. The needed repairs from the flood damage really have been a blessing in disguise. I am making Austin's first scrapbook. It'll be much like Dylan's; but, I'm making a "Wire and Bead" bound book. The scrapbooks I'm making for Izzie are 8.5 by 11. All is good in the world. Until next time, tata for now.

Rainy, Cold Tuesday - Craft Cave Spring Cleaning

Today is a rainy, cold, "it's good to be indoors" kind of day. I have been trying to clean up and organize my "Craft Cave" for about two weeks. Gosh, I can't believe how long this is taking. It would probably go faster if I could stay away from the computer and my tendency to check out the blogs I have on my favorites. It seems necessary to check YouTube every day for new videos on my subscriptions. Of course, when I download a video to my Real Player, I have to make some notes for further refining into a written tutorial. I have made it about 2/3 around the room and I can see the end of the tunnel. I took out some pieces of furniture with drawers and shelves. I replaced them with a large set of shelves with glass doors. This helps keep the little fingers of my grandchildren helpers out of trouble. It's going to make it easier to locate the stamps and tools I use when I'm working on a project. Okay, back to the cleaning and reorganization of the "Craft Cave".
Live long and prosper,

My First Blog Entry

I was emboldened this day to start a blog. I hope to have a bit of everything posted - pix of my craft projects, thoughts of life as it happens, new info about the family, etc. - Our fifth and newest grandson (Austin Roberto) is due to join the family April 19. Isabel is nesting a bit by getting the infant togs washed and ready to go. As soon as the baby arrives, I want to post pix on my blog. As it took most of the afternoon to set up my blog, my post today is short.
Live long and prosper,
