 O h, wow, I just had an idea that I will try.  I know that some of you want to sell things on Etsy, but you dont know how to put in the listing or want to know. I enjoy that part. A friend has done some beautiful paintings that he wants to sell digital prints of. So he is going to take the pictures and give me an idea of what he wants to call the picture. Then I will start an Etsy site for him as Site Administrator, he pays me a fee for setting it up and he collects the rest.  More details in the near future. If you are interested in a similar no-work site, let me know.

 Now some would say, "why are you going to Houston, with the muggy weather,storms, flooding and such." Well, there is family. I will miss my friends, but my cell phone still works and we can call each other, we do that now with all this Covid stuff, anyway. My house is a mess. I'm taking a lot more boxes.

I am not leaving the house empty, I have a friend who has consented to house sit until I get back to clear out and clean up the mess, with help, I hope. And the security system still works. And the Grand Prairie police are f...

 Well, here I am again . I have missed writing you and working on my crafts.

My dog, Miss Libby, and I will be moving to Houston and be close to my son and his family.  I can't sit still very long, but John and I spent 20 years in this house. Now I am sorting through things and deciding what gets saved,tossed or donated. The first load of my stuff is in Houston and will be unloaded into a cute little house soon. It's got more room than I have here and is really close to family (only 5 minutes or so). Look forward to having youngest grandchild, age 11, and her cousin over for craft time. That means crochet, knit, painting, sewing, and more. Hopefully it means sleepovers and lots of fun.  But with Covid, I'm checking out jobs I can do from home.  There are so many choices. One option I am going to offer a friend is to test market his fantasti...
