Ohio State game is on the TV in the next room but I'm trying not to listen. DH really wants them to win. Can't remember what else is happening today. Chris, well at least you can be happy the computer is there and getting set up and the Disney purchases are made. The vacuum, not so much...

Just now I'm taking a break while volunteering at the historical society. Used to be much busier day after Thanksgiving in older times. Very gray day, but that's OK since I'm spending it indoors. Don't tell (OK?) but yesterday I ordered two books from Shutterfly. One is my 2013 book and the...

Hope everyone is enjoying their day. Have to clear up misconception, I did not know Grace Hopper, but she was a great role model. A woman pioneer in computers and Naval officer made her really special. DH did work with a Senior Chief at one time who had met her, but that's as close as I came...

So many good things in your posts today! I just want to share my pleasure in something done yesterday at the White House. President Obama bestowed the Medal of Honor to a star-studded group along with two posthumous ones. One of the latter went to Grace Hopper. She is especially dear to my heart...

Exquisite super moon! Love the palette and the silvered frame.

This is so delightful! Nice subtle effect, love the threads and stitching.

Today is sunny, mid-50s, still a fair amount of foliage color so we went birding in the countryside. Wonderful day! Chris, my all-time favorite band names are Smashing Pumpkins and Blind Melon (not the bands, just the names!) I too love the skeleton stories, sounds like a total hoot. Super...

Beautiful page and what a wonderful font! Love it.

This looks amazing! Thanks for all the explanation too. Done with wonderful colors.

Well, hiding behind the sofa yesterday didn't do any good. Still in horrified shock. Chris, thanks for the puppy pix! Every little bit helps.

Still in the 60s but not sunny now. I just want to hide out today and hope the election is over. But as Chris said, probably not. We get to watch basketball tonight, another Cavs game. Hope Nancy's hockey will be a win. :behindsofa:
