Wishlist

Today is a good day for a wishlist - mine is fairly simple.
world peace,
an end to hunger (which would be relatively easy if the billions spent on armaments were redirected toward food),
education for anyone who really wanted it,
a better environment,
a world in better shape than it is now for the generation to follow...

all of it is more easily said than done...

midlife musing

End of the Summer!
I've been AWOL for a while - some minor health issues that just wiped me out and then there is the summer... I still work but DH and DGS do not have school to occupy them selves. So I do the camp shuttle thing for GS, and I find it takes a lot of energy just to deal with the home havoc wreaked by DH's home improvements.

School has started for everyone. Life is good! I have made excellent progress on my ABC Rouge sampler. I have DSL installed which speeds up everything, and I've also started a couple of garment sewing projects with my new sewing machine. Started a stitch-a-long at a semi-local NS on Sarabande, which is just wonderful! The photo does not do justice to the colors of the threads! Very cool! when I have enough to show, I'll post a photo!
