Just a note

This one really has notes on it!

I was going to do it in variegated metallic

thread but I thought the notes and

hearts were set off better  with the black

swirls.  And yes, I realize the sentiment

is very small in comparison, and I thought

about printing out something bigger 

since I don't have a bigger stamp.  But

when I looked at it, I decided that the

small sentiment actually stood out a little

more just because it was small.  So I'm

going to be doing the others the same way.

I'm just thrilled with how these are coming

out and I hope the person I'm sending them

to will like them.  I don't think she reads

my blog so I'm safe.

 

I'm having lunch with Dianne today, of course,

and tonight I'm going to the deaf chat.  I 

mostly just watch because I can't understand

it that well yet.  Plus the kids from a local

school come and they are good.  They should

be.  It's a regular class so they have it

every day.  They have to attend a certain

amount of deaf chats and volleyball games

in FT. Wayne to get credit for the class

as well.  What's the point of learning sign

if you aren't going to use it?    I've been

giving thought to my three little pigs story

and I think I know where I'm going with it.

I'm not sure if we all got the same story 

or not, I didn't think to ask anyone.  It 

doesn't matter, though, as everyone will 

have their own interpretation.

 

I had a delicious fish dinner at my

brother in law and Sister in law's

house last night.  They were in Kentucky

last week and caught a ton of fish.  Laurel

makes the best fish in town!  We played

cards afterward.  Laurel wiped the board

with us.  She didn't miss one phase and

ended the game with only 30 points.  That's

pretty unheard of with us.  We decided to

add two extra phases to the phase 10 card

game.  It's a game where you have to  have 

a certain number of sets, runs and both.

We added phase 11 which is a set of 5

and a set of 4.  Phase 12 is two sets of

5.  She breezed right through that.  We

thought maybe that would make the

game harder, but apparently lady luck

was at her side last night!  We are all

quite competitive so it makes for an

interesting card game! 

 

Happy Friday!
