When Is it Spring?

Now wait a minute. These Cherrytrees are blooming already and it isn't the first day of Spring, is it?
The long awaited spring is here in Tennessee. However in the late 1980's on Easter, we had a foot or more of snow. My walnut tree which lets me know that winter is over by starting to bud out is doing just that. It has been in the 80's already and I don't know whether to pack up my winter clothes and bring out the summer clothes just yet. So I have started to wear, on these warmer days, the bottom half of me in winter clothes and the upper half in summer. I am not taking any chances.

I hope you will have a smile on your face as you see this picture of Katie in the arms of the Cherry Tree blossoms. She could care less really. So,Happy Spring time everyone, I guess.

What a beautiful cherry tree. Maybe dogs have other things on their mind but we humans just have to sigh at the beauty of it.

Why I started to Blog.....

If you like to write, being a story, a poem, an article, your thoughts for others to see blogging is the way to go.

Being creative only since 2007 when I joined an internet group on yahoo and then a webiste for creative people on Swap-bot, this has been a way for me to write and create.

There are a great many bloggers with many creative ideas and stories to tell and I wanted to join in so here I am and I hope lyou will enjoy my muse.

I have gone thru a new phase in my life since 2007 and that is crafting. I did ATC's in all mediums and have started to think about quilting. I have done some fabric things. I have made fabric postcards in a yahoo group and did over 150 of them. Then fabric ATC's and they account for a few, but have two big looseleap books of paper ones I swapped with others. There are so many talented people and this is the way to find them.

In 2009 I really go into making fabric journals, inchies, other dolls and the lapquilts for my grandchildren.

It is 2012 and only one month left of this year.
Still doing swap-bot challenges. I think I have sent out over 1200 postal packages, letters, cards, goodies to people by now and intend on sending more as long as the post office doesn't get more extreme than they are already.

However, I did get the bug to write. I may not be great at it. I was a terrible in my English class at school. However, I love to write in journals, I make up nonsense stories to my grandchildren. Now I put all my writings down in a binder for my children and grandchilden can see what I did in my later lifetime. Even poetry has entered my thoughts as you can see on this blog.

Swap-bot has become addictive for me. I love trading crafts and things with others. To see abilities of others as they send you things they make. Wonderful fun!

Just go to http://www.swap-bot.com/ and see all the fun things you can share with others.
