Kendra This one is for you




























Ok, I have been excited about spring and how I was going to get some much awaited things done. number one on my list was Cissy,,,,,,,,,,,,,,she needed a hair cut in the worst way. But I had to wait until the weather got warmish.......or warmer at least. So I called her groomer and she said bring her down and we shall do her today., the weather was nice warmish and it looked like it would probaly stay that way. ha around here no one ever really knows for sure what it is going to do. SO HERE IS THE AFTER..................................She was so excited to see the groomer she ran up and jumped into her lap..................lol I think she really wanted a hair cut bad...what do you think............I think this is proof that there really a skinny woman in all of us.





Isn't she just cute as a button, I am alway amazed at what is under that wool fur coat she wears every year..................Kendra she is freezing now and she needs cuddling from you and Lexi..........Love you girls

















Jeep cup ???????????? is it yours?






LOL I have this cup or at least I think it a cup at my house and I have no idea what is came off of. Grandpa John thinks it came from Chelsey's stroller and I think it came from the van like a holder or something........any how if you think this is yours speak up now or else it is going in the trash. It has been traveling around my kitchen for at least 3 weeks now.

CHELSEY HAS A PLAY DATE....LOL

Chelsey had a play date with grandma's sweeties........................it was so funny the way she was playing with their feet and not her's and then she decided to suck on the girls paccy and she seemed to be totally ok with it all.
Smiles and you have to wonder how would it feel to actually be sitting with others that are the same size as you?
by the way Chelsey Grandma got your cold and I have been sick for 3 days now. I have lots more to blog but I really need to lay down now.

PROUD TEACHER MOMENT

Judy put her panel in an antique frame she had refinished...........it's BEAUTIFUL.





I am so proud of my student Judy, she took a class from 1 year ago, and did really well. So yesterday she came to see me and show me her latest project..........WOW she really did me PROUD. She borrowed a how to video from me a year ago and on this video was this picture of a little girl and boy fishing, when Judy brought the video back to me she wanted to know where she could buy the pattern ? I laughed and said well the video was made in 1976 so I wouldn't have a clue where to find that pattern. She was so glued on the idea that she finally got her son-in-law and I to draw the pattern for her so she could make it. She said it was in her brain and she couldn't get it out.............NICE WORK JUDY. I am going to enter her panel in a contest by a glass company and I hope she wins..............

TIFFANY LAMP UPDATE





I have cut, grind, and foiled 390 pieces. WHEW what a job that was. Now on to the soldering









I have soldered 6 sections, A Section 3 times, and B section 3 times, now it is time to assemble the sections together.................hmmm I am wondering how am I going to do that? I HAVE NO CLUE. So after several days of thinking about it I decided to try something and it sort of worked but it's not all there yet. But I just wanted to share what I had with everyone so that you didn't think I had given up on it.
These are the sections all soldered. The last picture is 1/2 of the lamp lol with a piece of tape on it. I can really see the design coming through on it now can you?
