Things I Love

First and foremost, I love my family.   That goes without saying.   And, I love my extended family, the friends of my heart.  Not going to post all those pix here.

I love animals, particularly my own.

The cat who thinks he is a dog.

 

Gangsta Dawg

 (dog with an attitude….he HATES this hoodie, but Jacks don’t have much hair and he has to wear something when it’s cold outside)

 I love knitting

lots of yarn and knitting books

I make a lot of funky little purses.   I love making shawls.   I make lots of hats for charity knitting.   My grandson likes to model for me.  He is such a ham.

I'm a star! Hamming for the camera.

I love podcasting.   I’ve had a pagan podcast called Salem Avenue for about a year now.

I love making jewelry.  My first love is metal clay but can’t always afford it.  My second love is wire.  I have tools, wire and books galore.

I love small children

I love Halloween.  My whole family comes over for the festival and we have a big feast and pass out candy.   Everyone dresses up.  I keep a skeleton in the yard year round and he wears a hat and necklace on St. Paddy’s Day, Easter Bunny ears for Easter……you get the picture.

I love bonfires and reading good books.  I love movies and music.   I love being outside at night.  I love forests, trees, feeding the birds, lakes, rivers and good food.

Life is good.
