Something To Look Forward To

So I'm going to be a Grandma! This is the best news I've had in I can't remember when!

It seems lately I've just been going from day to day with nothing to look forward to and now I have the arrival of Baby K ! I know there's not really alot I can do now but I can sure sew!

I took Jenny and Chris to the fabric store and we bought a bunch of patterns and just one piece of fabric ( I contained myself) and I'm ready to start sewing a layette for my new Grandchild, as well as a rocker cushion for Jenny ( as soon as they decide on a nursery color). Oh and maybe some baby safe stuffed amimals in cozy fabrics. Fun, fun, fun !

This is jus the kick in the rear I needed to get off my butt and do something ! Maybe it'll lead to my doing some other things I need to do as well...you never know!

Over the Rainbow

I've never been a huge fan of that song " Somewhere Over the Rainbow". I probably heard it destroyed at too many local pageants years ago. But sometimes I wonder what would it be like to be "over the rainbow" , someplace else, living some other life than the one I have now. Some day, OK lots of days I think it would have to be better than this, especially if I could pick out what I wanted it to be. Then I realize that all of life is basically picking out what you want it to be and if you don't like it then it's time to pick out something different and make your own "over the rainbow" experience.

I don't know where I want to go or what I want to do and maybe I never will so I guess for now anyway , I better make this side of the rainbow an OK place for me to be.
