Book Sale over etc

The book sale is over, and it was a definite hit. I got over ten big fat fiction books, plus several sewing and decorating books. All the money goes to the library system. A win-win for sure. Now that I've finished the wedding announcement embroidery, I'll finish the lock embroidery I started earlier. Then it'll be time to start something new. I have to have something to work on all the time. It makes me feel creative and calm and less of a lazy bum when sitting around watching tv. Now if only I could figure out how to embroider and read and watch tv all at the same time. I think I need to sew something that's colorful, and where I can try new stitches. I guess that's a sampler. Maybe a variety of circles? Hmm. I've had a few people suggest I tell more stories. So here's a start... Liza, the lizard (a continuing character of mine) was sitting in the sun. A large shadow fell over head. Liza was very nervous, it could be a bird ready to eat her, it could be a child ready to put her in a jar and make her a pet, it could be a cloud in the sky. Liza scurried under a flowering bush, hoping what ever it was would go away. Ok that's all I've got so far. As those who have heard me tell stories know, this is the time when I need feedback/ideas. Please let me know what ideas you have and I'll incorporate some (or all). BTW I'm anxiously awaiting pictures of the wedding. (James and Jess that comment's for you ; ~) ) Well onward to laundry etc. WEEE
