enter textThat would be nice. I’m a lazy crocheter I hate changing yarn colors. I think I’m going to try crocheting kids stuffed animals, Amigurumi. Also some snowflakes and other holiday things for window garland. I have a lot of tobacco twine. It’s like cooking twine but a little thicker, comes on big spools. My grandma sold the crochet bedspreads for $500.00 in the 80s. She made all the grandkids one & the older great grandkids. I included links to get a visual idea. My granddad farmed. In the 70s I watched the ladies wrap the tobacco on sticks for drying. I used to beg to do it. It wasn’t fun, hard physical work. Now it’s automatic. North Carolina still grows a lot of tobacco. I love the smell of dried tobacco, it smells sweet with a mix of woodsy. Many times I’ll find a dried tobacco leaf in my yard dropped from the farmers carrying it to market. Wow I went off topic!
I’ve had so many hobbies since I was a child. Crafting was a big deal in my family. Mama & grandma were always making things for themselves and to sell. I learned to crochet at eight years old. Just the basic stitches. As an adult I have made several things. Then it was embroidery, cross stitch about twelve and macrame followed. In my twenties I did lots of cross stitch projects, stretched and framed them myself. I’ve done just about every craft around. Taught myself to sew and did that for several years. Many I figured out weren’t for me. Candle making was a big mess. That’s why I don’t mind paying for homemade candles. My favorite is crochet because it comes easy to me. I want to learn to knit. My eyes are really bad right now and I don’t do a lot of crafts. After surgery I’d love to get back to crafts. There’s lots of places that have craft classes. Making stained glass would be fun. Long story short soon I hope to get back into crochet and embroidery. Maybe learn to knit.
Yes it was. Animals are so in tune with the environment. I like to think the first people in garden of Eden were in tuned to the animals. My dog has had seizures a few times a year the past four years. It’s normally in November when the weather changes. He had one on the day of the eclipse. Nothing serious, you just have to hold him till it passes.
Sounds like you have life figured out. We are very proud of our beaches in North Carolina. Our secret has been out a long time. I’d love to drive across the country to different destinations. Seeing this beautiful country is for sure on my list. Right now we don’t have the time for road trips. Thinking about flying to destinations and renting a car. Enjoy your home on the road.

Little house on the hugh
Huge homes are beautiful but not the answer to happiness. The first eight years of our marriage we lived in a trailer and were very happy. It’s the people that make a home not the square footage. Home could be a motor home on the road, not for me but great for those that love it.
Agreed about home being around your loved ones. I’m a little touched in the head and would love to ride out a hurricane. No to the tsunami! My husband and I wanted the go storm chasing in tornado alley, in our twenties. Having a kid and no money we didn’t pursue it. We aren’t crazy just love to watch storms but we know they can be dangerous! I don’t sit outside in a thunderstorm.
Yeah I wouldn’t say I love it. There’s a post on here from a couple days ago. Someone did a mirror image of it. It has at least one demon head. I believe I saw two heads and children in the top around the demon head.
South Carolina on a beach near Charleston or further south. If money is flowing like mad a second home in Hawaii on the beach. Now that I have a grandchild on North Carolina beach, Carteret County. SC was always the dream. I know my daughter would never move out of state would move to NC coast if husband could get a job making what he’s making here. She’s a nurse and can work anywhere. Bottom line on a beach near them. Priorities change!
I know you are very proud of your son. Sounds like he’s a smart determined person. That attitude will get him far in life. I’m not that familiar with sea moss. It’s one of the hottest natural products on the market right now. Do your research on it because anything that’s very popular has the potential to attract many scammers. I see it a lot on instagram and Etsy. I do buy tinctures from small businesses that most likely make them in their homes. I do extensive research before buying and ask question's directly to the shop owner before buying. I don’t know anything about sea moss but I see a lot of people selling liquid sea moss. Looks like a green liquid. Adding water to anything that’s not consumed quickly has the potential to grow bacteria that you can’t see. I would seek out reputable supplement companies for the sea moss.
II believe Spirulina is a natural detox. I have taken it occasionally. It has multiple benefits. There’s a green & blue. It also comes from the ocean. That’s one reason I say be careful with the brand of sea moss as well as Spirulina because some areas of the ocean are not as safe as others. I linked below the brand I trust. It’s been a few years since I bought it so research the company.

There’s many herbs that are detoxifying and can be taken as tea, tinctures or supplements. In most cases taking the liquid herb tincture is most effective. I believe that also depends on the reason for taking the herb. I keep many different herbal teas and tinctures on hand in case of sickness.
Yeah it is glad you liked it. NCIS (at least the older seasons with Mark Harmon) is a great show and doesn’t push the normal agenda of hollyweird. The character Gibbs has an entire list of rules that are great life lessons.
Printed fake meat short clip explaining the process. Only God can help us! I’d become a vegetarian before I ate this.
I bet! Nothing is cheap anymore. Giving is as much a gift for the giver as the recipient. It’s a great feeling to make someone happy.
