May
As the summer months near and people are looking forward to getting outside, down here in the bayou I am preparing to hole up for the next three months in my cool, air conditioned home. Perhaps its the combination of the stifling heat and effects of mid-life that makes it nearly unbearable to step outside. It seems to get worse each year, to the point some days I believe I just may die from sweating too much. I try to take it in stride, as I know many up north have been holed up for months themselves, hunkering down in the winter snow. With the good comes the bad in most everything I suppose.
I do look forward to spending time with NoraLeigh. She plans to learn how to cook this summer. She has really taking a liking to the culinary arts, which I also enjoy..so that should be fun and yummy. My sister has just moved to a kind of commune in Mississippi, near by. She has a lovely pond, peace and serenity on a secluded 20 acre plot. Obviously we plan to spend a lot of time out there.
With summer vacations and the busy-ness of being mommy dolly creations, as usual slows down. I'll be creating and sharing whenever I can find the time, but no doubt it will not be as often as usual.
So with that, I'd like to share some new pieces I've been working on.
