    I think that I really need to get that new thread going concerning this. Just have to come up with the correct and best wording...

    This thread is no longer visible to the general public unless someone happens to go to the forum topic area.

    Thanks!

    Hi, startover22!

    Did you start a vegetable garden again this year?

    Thanks!

    startover22
    Yes, but it is 30 by 30 and needs lots of loving care... ONE BIG bath tub with my peas in it, and three huge gigantic beds with all sorts of great goodies in them... two others one is empty and the other is full of long beans for Nana... I have room for four more, but in order to get the gator through we are going to add just two more. Lots of work and lots of fencing... hard work, but well worth it! How are you Clough?

    You've got a lot more space than I do for a vegetable garden. Mine's only about 6' x 25'.

    Thanks for asking how I am! I had been in the hospital a couple of months ago. I don't know if you knew that...

    I had some sort of seizure this past Tuesday night in the middle of my barbershop chorus rehearsal. I seem to be better, but there's some issues still with which to deal...

    How are you?

    Thanks!

    I knew and sent hugs in a different thread for you...
    I am sorry for all the yucky stuff Clough, you are loved and cared about here. You keep your health up,OK?
    I think you should post a song on YouTube so we all can here what you all do.
    I am great and loving the beginning of summer. Winter was crazy awful... and I am ready to get rid of all that! Hugs Clough, I got to git going now but will update;)

    Okay, I remember now...

    There's may be a piece or more posted sometime on You Tube and/or on our Bend of the River Chorus site of me directing my barbershop chorus.

    I've found a way to have sound files stored on other sites. There are some recordings of me that I should be able to put easilly on those sites as long as I have a good enough connection to the Internet.

    You're so sweet and loved very much, startover22!

    Thank you so much!

    Is it posted under Bend of the River Chorus? Or how would I get to it? Can you link it to me? I would love to see it!

    I enjoy doing tapestries, knitting for others, not really cafty - but being with my goats.

    I would love to be able to paint - the thoughts are there but the eye and hand are not - perhaps as I mature more, and have more time for me it will come to me.

    I used to sew, still can, but the children are too big now and life is too hectic.

    Would mowing the grass be considered a craft ( make the field look good, put paterns on the lawn)?

    Hi, 3-2-1!

    I'm sorry that know one has yet come along to address your post! It does sound like you have a number of craft things going for you that you do!

    If done in a certain way, yes, I would consider mowing grass, cutting hedges and trimming trees to be an art as well as a craft! Please think about some of the hedge gardens in England as well as how the grass is mowed in certain patterns for areas where certain sports, like baseball, are played.

    Thanks!

    I think anything that you put your heart, mind, and creativity into is an art.

    I think that you're correct about that, Momma!

    I can't wait for school to start... I have a pottery class on my mind and finally belly dancing, I can't wait!!

    I don't remember if you've done pottery in the past, startover22. Have you? Also, I'm curious as to why you're going to study belly dancing?

    Thanks!

    I have never studied it, nor have I tried it at all.
    I am so excited.
    Belly dancing? Well, last year I wanted to do it, and was too late to sign up two times! This year it is different, I am on track with their meeting times and when it starts. I have always thought it was an interesting way of moving and feeling, don't you all think it is great?

    Hi, LearningAsIGo!

    You started this thread and yet, you haven't done anything on it in a long time. I'm wondering why?

    Thanks!
