I woke up this morning to the sound of rain on the roof. This has always been a magical sound, and after years of drought, a most welcome one. Eventually the sound ebbed. I got up to boil water for a cup of tea.

I just cut a project off the loom - a wool scarf for my husband Bruce. I’m done weaving - but I’m not finished!

So I get this magazine called Artful Blogging. It’s eye candy, printed on high quality paper, with profiles of blogs and bloggers, and lots of beautiful pictures. I enjoy reading it, and I’ve gotten a lot of good ideas and advice from it.
