Too windy & cold to hike.The leaves are falling from the trees like snowflakes!


I worked on the Flower Garden granny square lap blanket.


I sold a Flapper Skull Cap in Mixed Neutrals to Wendy in NC.

My Packer boots!


There was no wind at the house,so we left for a hike.The wind was blowing really hard in the foothills,so we just came back home.


I sold a Flapper Hat in Dark Olive/Fall to Sherrie in AK.


I found 2 small balls of Olive Green to finish the next row on the pineapple doily.The edging was made in Taupe.I love it!!


After lunch,I went to the post office,Family Thrift Center,Goodwill & Hobby Lobby(Jaun Tabo) for RHS Dark Orchid.They didn't have it,so I checked JoAnn's,Hobby Lobby(Wyoming),Michaels & finally found it WMS.


Back home,I worked on the Princess Jeanne Plum cape & made Apple salad.


We had Double Grilled smoked sausage wraps & Apple salad.

Short hike to Shelter Rock,36 degrees.


We went shooting(my Kahr 40 needs some work),then stopped by Western Warehouse to look at boots for me.I planned on getting me a new pair of Black ones for my birthday,but never got around to it!I really wanted a pair like the brown ones I have,but after looking online,they no longer make that style(my brown ones are about 10 years old!).I tried on a pair of traditional ones & they were so narrow in the foot,they were painful(my brown ones are of soft leather & stretched to fit my foot,wider,but not wide enough for Wide width).Mike saw some Packer boots(look like western style,but lace up).I LOVE them!The toe is rounder,so the foot is wider & the laces make them more adjustable.They look good with my jeans,but are also dressy enough for skirts.I am so happy!Will post a picture tomorrow.


Back home,we changed batteries in the smoke detectors,cleaned the leaks on the driveway,sealed up the dog house & hung the quilt rack.


I started a pineapple doily in olive green,but ran out of thread with 2 rounds left to do.I will try adding a different color tomorrow.


We had spinach sausage casserole for supper.

Little cupboard-$1


Short hike to Shelter Rock,33 degrees.


We got groceries at WMS & warm socks at Sportsman Warehouse.


Mike fixed a leak on his truck.


After lunch,I made Granola Muffins.Mike put a blanket on the hot-water heater,turned the utility room light switch in the right direction & hung a poster for me.


We were going to hang some cranberry tab toppers($2 at a yardsale) above the french doors to the back patio,but with the cove ceiling,we couldn't get them hung up high enough to be free of the swinging door!Instead,we hung 3 floral saucers from hangers on the wide wood casing.Even Mike likes it!


I made a  9 1/2" doily called "Dawn 'o Day" in Dusty Rose using a 1940's tablecloth motif pattern.


We had Bacon Cheeseburger wraps for supper.
