This is last year's pic, but this is what I've been working on this afternoon, more bottles of boos!  Those are marshmallow peeps in the bottles.  I wasn't planning to make any and gave away most of my frapuccino bottles, but had a request for more.  Son Bumper is running a large corn maze again this year, and these were a hit out there last year.  I think I'll also send a few to work with DIL Vicki for decorations at the vets' office where she works.  She's in a new office this year, so they won't have seen last year's stuff.  Pretty simple, but lots of grins!

     It has been so long since I posted anything on this blog, I decided to let the world, if anyone is looking, know that I am still alive. 
     Most of my projects of late, have been for the family or for challenges on Fiskateers.com/blog, my favorite place to play.  These are just a few of the more recent.
     I'm still battling pulmonary alveolar proteinosis, but may be winning at last.  My last two CT scans have shown slight improvements.  My specialist in Denver, CO--I live in CA--thinks I may be headed for remission!  I am most thankful, and praise God for His touch in my life. 
     Although the illness, and accompanying medications, consume a lot of energy, I am blessed to be able to give more time and energy to my family lately.  My primary responsibility has been the care of 2 1/2 year-old Sequoia.  What a delight she is!  She completely drains me, but she is so amazing, so much fun, that I could never complain!
     The projects posted today are just a random sampling of things I've done lately.  Lord willing, I'll get organized and post more often, maybe even with explanations.  No promises!  :o)
