so here i go again.

with the first blog attempt. i wanted to upload a couple of pics. i failed four times.... i don't know what it is i am doing wrong. but, i feel that i need to follow through with this started project. a place of my enjoyments and all. basically the above is for myself and hopefully, it will push me to further my knowledge.

on that note, what are the things that i have learnt to do so far this year of 2008.

well lets see:

- i have learnt to make pizza crust with yeast, yes, i know. the thing is the rising just never worked for me.
- i have learnt to make baby bibs, easy you say, yes but still i have never tried it. now i have baby gifts sitting and ready to go.
- i made a pair of lounge pants from a pattern. if you know me you know that i do not use a pattern. at least not one with the instructions added to it. i find that i have a hard time following instructions. so this is the first thing i made with a pattern since 1986 (jr. high home education). by the way... i don't like the pants that i did make, and if i try it again, of course i will be following the pattern in my head.
- i looked up and found 4 more thrit shops in Amarillo. yippie!
- most recently i jumped right on to that country dance floor with all abandon. and let me tell you... this coming from a midwest girl considered a yankee here in the great plains of TX. i had a blast and even though most of the gals dancing was in constant contact with their partners.... don't they just want to let loose of the man and shake it on down.

well, there have be many other first to this year. at this point i need to sign off and tend to some serious pancake making. yes, made from scratch, is there any other way? and we can not forget the bacon.

i look forward to this outlet and God willing i will figure out how to make this spot mine and my own life.
