Soggy Sunday

I want to state clearly that I 

am not complaining.  Two things

are good about a soggy day:

it's not snowing and I don't

have to mow the lawn!  I don't

mind mowing, but I'm not

going to cry about not being

able to do it either!

This card was made with some

feathers that a friend sent me.  The green

is home made glimmer mist which

actually came out well.  You can't

really see the glimmer on the picture,

but in "real life" it shimmers in the

light.  I used perfect pearls to make

it.  I was skeptical at first, and it seemed

like a pain in the neck, but I was

surprised at how well it turned out!

 

I'm going to church in Waterloo again

today.  It's about half an hour away,

but I enjoy watching my teacher sign

the service.  There aren't any Deaf

people at the moment, but since it

is advertised in the paper as

being interpreted, you never know

when a Deaf person might be sitting

in the back.  I mean, it's not

like they wear a sign saying,

"I'm Deaf".  So it's interesting

and I learn quite a bit because I'm

still not very good at "receptive"

which just means I don't understand

a lot of what is signed to me.  But

being able to hear and see at the

same time is helpful.
