How to Be Lucky


How to be lucky? "Be Generous...
I cannot overstate how a generous
spirit contributes to good luck."

Polkadot Monkey is Using It Up


This is a nightgown for Brookie that is just now
finished, using some old fabrics I have had for
years. She picked out the hearts material
from the stacks when she was little for me to
make her something. I forgot all about that
when stuff got packed up to move. Polkadot
Monkey likes cherries.



"Use it up, or wear it out.
Make it do, or do without." -Anon.

This is my new mantra these days.
No duh!

Two Dogs Running in the Snow


I looked out to check the snow and saw these
two dogs running and jumping and turning
flips in the park while their owners chatted.
It has snowed for days and days. Now I am
going out to learn how to do the snowblower.
