This little lady is a self portrait of sorts... She is kinda chunky in the body and not too concerned about wearing matching tops, slacks or sweaters. Sometimes she finds a funky necklace or broach or ring at the second hand store and wears them every day for a month then puts them away and forgets them.
Most mornings she forgets to brush her hair and it goes a bit wild when she takes the dog for a walk before anyone else in the neighbourhood is awake. She likes to sit on the balcony of her townhouse and look down on her little piece of land where her daisies and hostas, and peppermint are just peeking through the soil and pine for the days, soon to come, when she can get out and plant some geraniums (she plants red geraniums every year in memory of her Mom) and tries to grow some beans or tomatos or spinach.
There's not much more in life that a little lady like this could ask for and she finds herself to be happy most of the time...
Well, now, the dog Pearl, is anxiously waiting for her walk in the park, so away we go....
Check out the Needle and Thread Network today for links to blogs all across Canada. Stop in and visit and say hello -- everyone loves it when you leave a comment -- remember if you visit someone in real life, you do say something so just cause it is the virtual world, you shouldn't visit without telling them that you enjoyed coming by...
PS. I should say that this post was somewhat inspired after reading this blog... http://maryanntate.blogspot.ca/ - a cloth doll maker's diary (also on the needle and thread network)
