What Color Red Are You?

You Are Apple Red
You're never one to take life too seriously, and because of it, you're a ton of fun. And although you have a great sense of humor, you are never superficial. Deep and caring, you do like to get to the core of people - to understand them well. However, any probing you do is light hearted and fun, sometimes causing people to misjudge you.


I'm not sure how accurate that is, but it was a short, fun quiz. One question asked which of 5 listed South American or Central American countries would I most want to visit and I've never had any desire to visit any of them!

Today is my mother's 65th birthday! Happy Birthday Mom!!!

Finished Afghan

Here's a pic of the crochet afghan I've been working on for the past couple of years (on again, off again). I finished it Sunday. It fits nicely on the couch, although it doesn't match the couch at all. Maybe it will match my new living room, someday! In the meantime, it's nice and warm!

Now to finish Miss Munchkin's YoYo Bunny before her birthday!

Change

I subscribe to a daily e-mail service from www.tut.com . Today's message was this:

The great thing about change, Karen, is that it absolutely, positively, always means things are going to get even better.

Even when you don't know how.

The Universe

Sounds good to me!

I cleaned out more books yesterday. There are 24 grocery bags full of books to take to the used bookstore at the public library. It was time to get really ruthless about how many books I have versus how many I need and how many I want to pack and move. And those were only from my fiction shelves! The shelves look a lot neater, though. Time to tackle some of the non-fiction shelves again and all those that are stored in the office building. Most of those can go to the library too!

When I finished carrying all those grocery bags to the van, I then tackled the four containers of cassette tapes. Who listens to them anymore? I saved out the comedy ones that would be difficult to replace with CDs and the rest I am going to give away. What's the saying, if you haven't used it in 6 months, you don't need it? Maybe today's the day to tackle my closet again. It seems like I'm on a decluttering roll!

Flowers! Spring!

Ah, spring! This week the sun is shining and the temperatures are warm. Last week it was winter; this week it is spring. It may be "April's showers bring May's flowers" in the north, but not here in Alabama. Here February showers brings March flowers! And even some early ones in February!

My Valentine's Day gift. Bill couldn't decide which color I'd like best, so he bought them all. I love African Violets!

And newly picked daffodils from Miss Munchkin and her Mommy.

More Miss Munchkin

More pics of Miss Munchkin, 11 months old.

A cutie, right?

Miss Munchkin with Grandpa. See her tail? Ever see a cat chase it's tail?

How about a Munchkin chasing her tail?

Just can't quite catch it!
