New Adventure in my Life

I have always jumped from one new avenue to another. 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.

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.

In my learning, I am understanding more of God and His healing using Faith and Essential Oils. After my latest bout of precancerous cells it is time to get to the root of the problem. And if I can find my answers, I will work to keep my grandchildren healthy and happy, along with love of our Heavenly Father.

I hope you will enjoy following me on my new journey. Until next time, may you be blessed. 

Christmas Time

Happy Christmas Time to my followers. 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.

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.

To you all I wish you love and happiness.

So Far Behind...

There have been so many things going on lately that I have not had time to keep up to date.
During the first week of October, 2011 we meet Sonny's sister and her husband in Sevierville, TN for a week of autumn shopping. We all had fun and I will just d/l a few pics so you can see what a great time was had.

Motor Nature Trail.. Gatlingburg, TN

On October 22, a few of us made a day trip to Ashville, NC for the SAFF exhibit. A Great time was had by all and we were having so much fun that I forgot to take pictures.  Bad on me.  But we all have memories. Thanks girls, I had a great time! Hope you did.  And talk about $$$....

On October 23, the family went to Owen's Fall Festival at Rural Hall Elem. School. He and Live had a great time. There was face painting, toenail painting and bouncy galore.

Next on Sunday, I took the kids to Fort Chiswell Animal Park 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.  Just wish I had my shears when I saw this beautiful llama.. Going back it was that much fun..

Puff wanted his breakfast then...

Cody the Bison - I saw some bison fiber in Gatlingburg that was selling for $75.00/skein

Humphrey was giving Livie some sugar

Antelope hungry too

What a beautiful fiber this would be

Livie, Dianne, and Owen in the mountains of VA

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.  Until next time....make time for YOURSELF.

My First Knit & Crochet Show (Overwhelmed)

Bronna brought to our attention earlier in the summer about the Knit & Crochet Show coming to Greensboro. 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, Dawn  and Laurie who could not go with us on Friday. Our LYS, Knit Picky 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...

The Elegant Ewe

Well as you can see, I have some projects waiting on me, and a pretty bag to carry them around in.  I don't think I could handle a bigger Knit Show, well not without lots of $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Thought this would be a good time to share this link.
