Can't wait to get started winter sewing next month. I just dig out my grass.Although I do have a spot I'm going to put down some heavy duty weed block to kill the grass on the shady side of my dogs exercise area. Trying to hide it from veiw. Already have arborvitea on the sunny end...I'm putting hydrangeas on the shadey end. Peggy...See MoreI've Got Chills, They're Multiplyin'!!
Comments (8)Yes, I need to sign up for WA. I've just eaten a banana and while I was hungry and I do like bananas, I've realized that the real reason I ate one was so that I could snip up the skin and bury it in my wormery. Son and Husband made this for me (at my request) for Christmas - I set it up about midJanuary and have to stop myself checking it every time I go into the garage. I yell at anyone who leaves the garage door open too long - my worms might get cold! Between this and my compost bin, my son thinks I exhibit an unhealthy obsession with decaying matter.......See MoreI've got balls!
Comments (22)Thanks everyone ;-) hrsg: It is fun! It's messy, though. Not loving that part-- it would be tons easier if I had a real backyard and garage to mess around in. Annie: I got the face mold at www.dickblick.com. I think it was only a couple of dollars. They had some other ethnic faces molds and some of the smaller ones. Not exactly sure what I am going to do with the horns yet-- just have some vague ideas about them. Maria: Thanks... and you're welcome. I'm trying to get back here more. Had a bit of a delay this time around-- some due to lack of sleep and playing catchup and some of it having to do with playing catchup in my garden. Oh man, I don't think I will ever get that sucker in shape. My Calla Lily plants are doing great, though-- finally! crystal01: Go for it! I was going to use the styrofoam balls, but those larger ones (8" I think) are like nine bucks over here. I have to admit, I've been surprised at how well the plain rubber ball has worked out. At $.99, they are a real bargain. Hazie: Yeah, I do love the process. I *hate* the cleanup, though. It's getting easier as I figure out better ways of doing things. Still and all, it's messy messy messy! klinger: Thanks Cindy. Reading posts like yours, both here and for a long time over at the Hypertufa forum, were so helpful. I'm not sure I would've ever tried it on my own without all that help. Thanks for the suggestion about posting over there. I owe them for sure. They can learn from my bloopers as well as from all of the good, solid information. bamasusanna: Dig in! You really should get busy with it or you will drive yourself nuts with the "what ifs." I'm not sure if this is going to be a long term thing for me like it's turned out to be for Cindy, but I've wanted to do it for so long. Be sure to get yourself a facemask or three. A respirator would be even better if you can swing it. You don't want to be breathing this stuff. squirrellycanadian: Leaf castings! Oh man, now there's something I'd love to try. You're braver than me! My balls have quite a few lumps and bumps, especially the first two. I think the mosaic will cover most of that up, though. The last one turned out pretty good (lump-wise) and I think practice will help make it better. The one I did with the mold was really smooth and would've been even better with a better mold release agent. I just need to figure out how to deal with the seams, because you can really tell it was there. Not sure yet what I am going to do with the face-- right now I am thinking it would be fun to have a whole forest of faces hanging on little poles amongst the plants. chickeemama: You made some cement bowls? So where are your pictures??? Thanks, I'm glad I wasn't laid flat for a long time, too. ;-) crafty_lady: Thanks! I bet you could do this if it was something you wanted to do. It's kind of a pain, but I am finding some satisfaction in it, too. I haven't weighed the balls. I think the heaviest one is lighter than a regular bowling ball. A couple of them are very light. calamity_j: Thanks! Hey, that Davey is a great dog. A little monster at times, but overall a sweetheart. Davey doing what he loves: running hard Davey doing what he does most: checking for any action in the vicinity-- anything that might require him to run...See MoreFoot pain ow ow ow OW
Comments (24)Thank you everyone. I survived the night. Actually at about 2 am I followed the doctors instructions and took two of the pain pills. It gave me some relief but made me soooo tired but than again it was 2 am and I had been up for 22 hours by than. When I woke this morning I felt like the pain wasn't quite as bad as yesterday. As this morning progressed I feel definitely the pain is better..I'd say 30% better. I took no pain pills today. I was also worried about cellulitis once the pain spread, but since the pain is letting up I'm not so sure. I will avoid standing all day cleaning, cooking, ect... and just take today to rest the foot. I've learned since my last bout with the flu..I'm to old to just carry on when somethings wrong with this body. Thank you all....See Moreineffablespace
