I admire the patience.<BR/>Just a comment on your ipod, I got a new <A HREF="http://www.ipodjuice.com" REL="nofollow">ipod battery</A> from ipodjuice.com and it lasts so much longer.

I love the trees and the pebbles. I didn't find January too bad but perhaps that's because I was relieved that November/December were over. Whatever, January was a busy month and February and March are already nearly filled up. Not sure what happened to my plan to do less.<BR/>Hugs to Barker. xoCarolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01914350639398715648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13497442.post-6033483236456166162008-02-02T15:39:00.000-08:002008-02-02T15:39:00.000-08:00What a beautiful quilt is that your working on!

I would love to make such a big one myself some day, but I only have a Husqvarna Lily sewing machine, so it will be a problem to quilt it (or I have to do it by hand, but I don't like doing that... I rather design and sew)<BR/><BR/>CorrynaCorrynahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04000221752220285114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13497442.post-28988895480907837042008-02-02T11:47:00.000-08:002008-02-02T11:47:00.000-08:00Hope your ”crud” will leave you soon.I’m also glad...Hope your ”crud” will leave you soon.<BR/>I’m also glad that we have left January behind us.

I don't envy your kitchen destruction but it will be worth it in the end. THe finished project looks wonderful.

I love it. I am not familiar with Silestone.<BR/><BR/>I just love my new GE Monogram fridge. I managed to get everything transferred and the old/new one is in the garage giving it a certain cache.<BR/><BR/>Good luck with the kitchen destruction and renovation. I don't envy you. Take care and be healthy.Gerriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06292762162661584206noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13497442.post-58542503955612387432008-02-01T19:50:00.000-08:002008-02-01T19:50:00.000-08:00Hey Judy,Where to start?

I'm going to have to give that one a try the next time I use yarn.<BR/><BR/>Second, I vote for honed granite. They take the polished stuff that gets sent to the fabricator and sand it enough to dull the finish. It doesn't sound nice, but its great. You can produce a really sophisticated look, especially with black. Just make sure you have good lighting in the kitchen, because it's not very reflective. We have polished granite in our kitchen and I love it. I didn't consider a honed finish until I saw it in a friend's kitchen after ours was done. <BR/><BR/>And finally, I can really relate to the weight of January goals. I've been doing a lot of soul searching about why I want to enter/show my work. I want it to be seen by others, to be out there in the world, but I'm not sure about the "competition" part. I've just decided that this is a growth step, and there's more to be gained by taking it than there is to be lost. <BR/><BR/>Hang in there. February WILL be better than January.<BR/><BR/>RussRuss Littlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05087596343127077125noreply@blogger.com
