Times flies!!!

It's amazing how long it's been since I last posted here in my very own blog.  I'm now 76, and so much has changed over the past 10 yrs.  I started painting at 65, more of a form of therapy after having a mini-stoke.  Now I've put the brushes away because I have way too many paintings needing new homes. I continue to crochet fine doilies, hats and scarves for anyone who wants them...baby blankets too. 
I still have a Facebook page where I share all that's going on in my life.  
Isn't it interesting how as we age (at least in my case) things stop working like the used to.  Take my pour ole' knees...had two TKRs but they just refuse to work as the should.  Getting up and down even curbs  is a big challenge these days.  Hubby has to lend me a hand...oh and getting up from a regular chair or booth...another big challenge.  I am so blessed to have a husband who can see when I'm struggling puts his faithful hand out to make sure I'm safe.... Don't know if I can even remember how this blogging works, so here we go..ehhehe
I wanted to share some of the things I am able to do here, and invite anyone who would like to do the same.  I know there are many creative people out there who feel the way I do...so join me in making each day a blessing rather that a chore!!!   Sending Birthday greetings to all who have Birthdays in June!!!
