Life is interfering with my desires to make things.  Didn't realize it had been so long since I posted here.

After the fire in the apt I lived in, stayed with my granddaughter while waiting the renovation then rented a house and now bought one and move in on my birthday - how good is that.  Now I'm back to trying to find a place for all that I packed in a house that was built before people had tons of "Stuff" rather than the minimum they needed.  So I will need to add storage in the  form of closets (trying to keep the integrity of when the house was built as I do) and other ways to store my over abundance of clothes, cooking paraphernalia and large stash of hobby (patterns, embroidery thread, fabric, quilt paraphernalia etc).  It all takes time, energy, money (maybe that should be first) and help.

Of course there is the needed minor repairs, rework some not so well accomplished upgrades (ie: bathroom) revise some antiquated plumbing, rearrange the yard  (to many plants just placed any ole where to get them in the ground), restore flooring to original, inside walls back to original, paint inside and out etc etc.

A good bit of work and way to much for me alone, but I have had promised help so will see.
