My newest endeavor is taking me to natural healing through herbs, essential oils, and the power of gems and stones. Our bodies are made up with energies and are open to the power of stones.These stones either fall from the sky or from the earth. Both coming from the creation of God.</p>
<p dir="ltr">So now I am traveling this road with the love and guidance of God and Angels. I have met some people who are continuing to teach me and share with me that until I can learn to love and heal myself, I can't be of service to help others. </p>

I know that you are all busy bees with preparations for the holidays and time with family and friends. I just wanted to take a minute and wish you all the best during this time and the new year. I certainly hope we can get back to our "normal" routines. Our yarn will be missing us for the next couple of weeks.<br />
<br />
I have completed a few projects but no pictures to post as of yet. Just finished the Road Map scarf and it was so fun to knit. But at a dead end cause I hate to block. Maybe a picture later.<br />
<br />
To you all I wish you love and happiness.<br />

Next on Sunday, I took the kids to <a href="http://www.fortchiswellanimalpark.com/">Fort Chiswell Animal Park</a> in Max Meadows, VA. Was that great fun! I never thought I would have camels, bison, zebras, and many more eating out of our hands. The sweet camels, Puff and Humphrey was a hit with us all. Here's a few of the pictures from that.

Guess this is a quick catchup of my life lately. I will try not to get so far behind again. I know I have left out a lot of fun facts but then, they were probably just fun for me.

Of course I had never been to one and thought it would be fun if a group of us (Pat, Joyce, Wanda, Pam) could get together and see what it was all about. I missed my friends,<a href="http://knittingoncloudix.blogspot.com/"> Dawn </a> and Laurie who could not go with us on Friday. Our LYS, <a href="http://knitpickyyarns.com/">Knit Picky</a> was going to have a booth there. Well talk about a kid in a candy store, I was overwhelmed and couldn't stop going from booth to booth and touching the yarn. (Course I found out there were lots of people doing the same thing.) I did bring a few things home. Thought you might enjoy see what treasures I found and no, don't ask me when will I get them all done...<br />

</tbody></table>After our soccer games, we went to a Church Bar-B-Q for our annual BBQ Chicken. Our friends invite us to join them every year. I won a silent auction for a golf game that hopefully will be fun for the family.<br />
<br />
Then it was off to a surprise birthday party for Sonny's cousin. She is turning 60 this month. Party was given by her daughter and all went well. Sure was hard keeping away from all those wonderful looking desserts! Will-power.<br />
<br />
Sunday, Sonny and I took our weekly trip to Beaver Creek Golf Course for a round. It was really fun and the air felt so "autumn". Saw a few trees already turning. After completing our round, we went to Cousin Gary's Diner for our Sunday Buffett. It is in Pilot Mountain and love to go eat at their buffett bar, good food and good prices.<br />
<br />
Now it is time to settle down, watch golf, watch football, take a nap, and then pick up my needles to do a little knitting. Life is good. Hope all had a good weekend and are ready for a busy week ahead.. <br />
REMINDER: The Knit and Crochet Fiber Show is in Greensboro Friday - Saturday. Hope you get to attend.<br />

So what did you do that day and the day after? I can just about bet it was doing something that you were FREE to do. Thank you to all who have served and are serving in the military to keep our shores as free as they can. And we, as Americans, can help too by letting them know we appreciate our freedom. Let's help our country by looking for local vendors, Made in America products. My grandson asked me if there were ANY toys made in America cause all he saw was MADE IN CHINA. As we were growing up, I took for granted when I saw a product that said Made in America. Now how many do we see? Just thinking....<br />
<br />
I was able to enjoy the weekend with my wonderful husband. We spent Sunday and Monday playing golf. We were avid golfers at one time and then life happened. It felt so good to have that freedom to do it again. It's a simple pleasure, you either like golf or you don't. But we do and know that it is something we can share together. <br />
<br />
There is a quaint golf course in Dobson, Beaver Creek, that is family owned and they are just plain good folks. Tim and Cindy will always make you feel at home. So if you are ever up that way, drop in, no tee time required..<br />

Sonny said we had some minor debris and lots and lots of wind and rain. It has been raining about 8 hours now. <br />

He said our yard is a swimming pool. Owen would love to hear that. <br />
<br />
So after walking the floors last night, I got started with some wonderful fresh ground coffee (tks Belvadear), I cleaned up the kitchen and loaded up the dishwasher. Then took my keys and walked out the door. Yep it was time for a pedicure to calm my nerves. It felt great to be pampered after a long night watching the weather channel. <br />

But Irene wants her 15 minutes of fame. <br />
<br />
Back in 1988, Sonny and I purchased a track of land in Southport, NC. We enjoyed commerical saltwater fishing on our 25 foot Proline cabin boat named the SEA U LATER and a coastal town devoted to fishing and antiques. Of course Southport is also a wonderful old coastal town with a lot of history. It was once named Smithville. Our place is located 1/2 mile from intercoastal waterway and about 3 miles from the ocean. We have been through quite a few hurricanes - Fran, Bertha, Bob, just to name a few. We have been twisted around a few times, our privacy fence totally demolished, underpinning scattered a couple of blocks away and some lawn and outside furniture that was never found..<br />
<br />
Sonny left yesterday for our place. He wanted to do some preventive stuff. I did so want to go. But Owen started 2nd grade yesterday and in addition to that day in his life, he was covered in poison oak. I took him to his doctor for some meds and it was so weird. I could just see new outbreak as we sat waiting for doctor. His parents decided to keep him home today to take his meds and heal some. So he will be at his Dad's shop and little sister Livie will be with me. Her daycare is closed today due to Gloria having some medical procedure. <br />
<br />
I have spent the night and this morning knitting and watching the weather channel. I truly have a feeling that tonight will be the show of Irene. I talked to Sonny last night and told him I wanted to come, of course the man logic, OK we have two vehicles down here and suppose something does happen, then what will we do if the vehicles get messed up. And of course he is right. But it's no fun sitting here and wondering. I will be so nervous that I might be knitting as fast as Irene's wind speed. All our stuff at Southport is material stuff and it doesn't worry as bad as hoping Sonny and others will be safe. Let's all say a prayer for the people in Irene's path.<br />
<br />

Of course his day was spent doing what he likes best, playing golf.<br />
<br />
It was also open house for Owen to get ready for the 2nd grade at Rural Hall Elem. School. He had fun but had to end up going to the emergency room due to being covered with Poison Oak. This is his first bout with it, bless his heart, it was on his face and hands. Got some cream for it and he will be fine. In fact it didn't stop him from his nighttime frog hunting. He has been doing this since he was 3 and always finds a bushel of frogs. Have they ever gotten loose in the house? That's another story. <br />
<br />
We finally were able to get the family together and have an ice cream cake for "Pa" and it was enjoyed by all. This photo shows happiness on his birthday. <br />

Sort of got a busy day planned. And hope to find some time to go feel some yarn.<br />
<br />
I was looking last night at some of the finished projects I have done and thought I would post them. But I must admit that when I was in my sewing days, my Mom would always be after me to "DO THE FINGER WORK". Didn't like doing that even though when it was done it would be finished. I relied on her to do the hemming, buttons, ironing and then I was ready to wear it. Well, I must admit I am the same way about blocking my projects and guess what, Mom is not here to do them. Guess I had better work on that fault I have. Speaking of Mom, I wanted to post my favorite picture of my Mom, circa 1933, in her graduation dress. I just love this era of clothes. And what a "classy-looking" Mom I had..miss her so. She was my BFF.<br />

<br />
<span class="messageBody" data-ft="{"type":3}">I guess I was in one of my down moods and yep, it came out of my mouth. Well the day has gotten better, got a few things accomplished like laundry, bills, etc. Maybe it all has to do with not touching my yarn today. So let's declare we need a "National Hug Your Yarn Day". Any takers? </span><br />
<br />
<span class="messageBody" data-ft="{"type":3}">Tomorrow will be the weekly Knit Nite and I am sure all will be better. Found this cute little ditty today so I'll post it. Hope all my friends following have a good day and a wonderful night. PS Football is here and I love to knit while I watch football.</span><br />

For those of you who don't know, this is the closet I have my stash in. Well I filled up 3 containers today and decided I had better stop before I passed out and no one would find me under the yarn. But it was fun to find yarn I forgot I had. <br/>

Since Tundra was not in my stash, I decided to do the wrap without the Tundra. It was knit with Kudo, Color 47, Lot 16. <br />
<br />
I think it turned out pretty good and with all the different colors, I can wear it with lots of things. Simple pattern and I enjoyed knitting it.<br />
