LOL thanks again
Response: I am so glad you liked it, I struggled with what to send, I injured myself in a fall in Dec. and was housebound for some time , so I got a lot of scarves made for craft shows and quarter auctions, they are very popular here, so I hoped you would like it. Then it was what color should I send? ha ha thanks for the heart.
Response: LOL I have to agree about the aroma of that tea. My daughter gave it to me after I commented that I liked the scent of her sensy, qne found it was the tea I was smelling . hq ha ha
Response: sorry, I should have read your profile more thoroughly. I have been recuperating from a fall, had blood on my brain, and I think I was not concentrating on what I was reading well enough. Did I send enough things that you could use? I don't do paper things so I had no extra things there. But I am sure I could find something else to send.
Response: thank you, I just learned to crochet, after knitting for over 60 years, and I love crocheting, I have a new great grand child comming and am having fun doing all the baby things.

Response: I understand, you have so much to read for school you won't have much time for pleasure reading. School is important, Stick to it, It will pay off in the end. I remember my kids complaining because they had no time to read. Now they have their degrees and are working well. I used to send care packages and that helped with the homesickness. hopefully your mom will too. Best wishes Marcia

Response: I lived near Roseburg Oregon, well known as the timber capital. These loads with only one log were not common, but the loggers who had them would wait till just before dark to bring them out of the woods, as by then the scales were usually closed and they could sneak by without having to be weighed.( and fined for having a overweight load. Then they would park their truck in a lot such as a big grocery store has, so they could get them in the mill as soon as it opened in the morning. sneaky little devils. LOL
Response: LOL I don't like carrots either ! except in carrot cake and these muffins. I am glad to know I am not the only one who doesn't like them. ha ha

Response: Thank you, I knit while I watch tv in the evening. So when I signed up for this swap, I knit the squares one evening and had them ready to go. I love to make up patterns, So I knit lots of scarves to try out different options. I found a book once that showed how to make your own sweater patterns, so I drew squirrels that my young son wanted on a sweater and then made a graph and made his squirrel sweater. That sweater got passed down through all of my kids, with new buttons added along the way. ha ha
Response: so glad it got there in one piece. ha ha I made one for my grandson of Sponge bob, I hit the car door with it as I got out of the car, and smashed it to tiny pieces. I made a new ornament for each of my children as they grew up. Then gave them the box of ornaments to take to their new home when they moved out for their first christmas tree. I try to date them, it is fun watching them remembering when they received each one. LOL
Response: glad you liked it, I love to sew. I did a baby quilt and the browns were left overs, a friend of my daughter's wanted a cow quilt for his first baby, in browns and cordinating colors.
