In central Texas, it looks as if, hopefully, “Spring has Sprung”! My proof is that noses have started to run. Ah, yes – those seasonal allergies are also in bloom along with the trees and flowers. I absolutely love this time of the year but I am not free from the hay fever drear. In celebration of the new season, I have been making these fabric tissue holders. They have made perfect gifts for my friends who suffer from seasonal allergies. And, although it may be difficult to see through itchy, watery allergy eyes, they are actually much more fashionable than the little plastic-wrapped packages of tissues!

Once upon a time, people used to write their thoughts down in a journal or on notebook paper. I am a just a bit embarrassed to say that I have not been writing for quite a while. Life happens – right!?! Well, it has been a goal of mine this year to get back to blogging and really staying focused on my interests (without getting overwhelmed with my responsibilities). Sounds easy enough —– and then I went to pull up my blog. It is like losing the key to your diary! The thoughts are all there and ready to flow from the brain to the fingertips to the keyboard, and ——-what is my password and username again?

After frantically thumbing through my Senior Citizen Password/Username Notebook to no avail, I decided to search the internet for the answers. I had to watch multiple videos and relished the idea of the old pen and paper once again.

I wanted to share pictures of the things I have been working on, but I guess I need to watch another video for that as well. Ahhh – the beauty of technology and change!
