As we settle into the nighttime of despair, fret not, for the Sun will rise again!!
Good morning!!
We, here, will never forget those who died on September 11, 2001, as we seek to protect the Republic from all who will do her harm!!
Israel continues pounding Gaza in retaliation for a recent missile attack by Hamas against the Jewish State. Also in Gaza, factions are reported as fighting between themselves.
Tony Blair is being considered to head the World Bank after Wolfowitz leaves.
For AMERICA - The Right Way, I remain yours in the Cause, the Chairman.
How was the birthday party?
Rained out. Doing it next weekend.
Time to get movin’...
Oh no! Well, at least he’s too young to know....won’t be that way for long...
The dark green is a crepe-like polyester and I’m not sure what the embroidered overlay is. It melts when a match is held to it, instead of burning, so I am sure it isn’t natural.
It was really a very simple dress to make. The bodice is a just a short, simply cut band with one dart on each side. The skirt and the overdress attaches at the princess waist and is only slightly gathered. Then it flares out to make it full, but not too full. The dress closes with a 7” zipper in the back. The only hand sewing I did was stitching the lining at the bottom of the bodice, putting a hook and eye above the zipper, and attaching the sequens straps which were cut from the overlay material.
Thank you all for your compliments. It gives me a good feeling to know that I can make nice clothing and that my daughter wants to wear it.
Thank you lysie for such a great breakfast, I’ll be making the coffee in a couple of minutes.
Good Morning Everyone.
I know what you mean. I wonder what cavemen drank, to wake up?
Toby, that is wonderful news!
I’m so very glad for you and your family and especially for a very lucky little boy named Jason.
Your gardenfest sounds interesting and fun. What is a fairy garden?
I agree with you Molly. Our republicans seem to be floundering around the 2008 election and will side with the democrats to keep themselves in DC. There are some repubs who are in name only, the reason they are repubs is because that’s the only way the could be elected. (Ron Paul) They only pretend to be conservative. They follow the democrat line very closely. Look at jeffords who used the republicans to get to DC. Republicans who have been reelected many times seem to follow rather than lead when they are the majority. I don’t understand them. We do have a few real Republicans, ie, Kyl, Cornyn.
That is a lovely dress and a very lovely daughter.
HO HO
I still want to see what is in the bill. I have read some of the stories which list the provisions, and some I don't agree with and some I do...which is, I guess, the nature of a compromise.
You can buy these fairies that come on stakes for your gardens. The lady did her “fairy gardens” in large wash tubs. I also saw one made in a bucket. I think they would be fun to do around the base of a tree or in a rock garden. She used those tiny clay pots planted with small flowers, like sweet alyssum and made a woodland scene, using colored clear blue rocks, to make a small pond in her setting. She had used a heavy wire to make a U-shape to hang a small swing. It was a little like the terrariums we used to make years ago.
Something as important as this one needs to be thoroughly vetted. Elected congressmen/women need to hear from their constituents before they assume they know best.
Belive me, we are the blessed ones.
