Francine's Musings: June 2009
http://francines-amusings.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Sunday, June 7, 2009. Two and a half years ago, I met my friend Dee. We met at a shoebox party. There we were,. Crafting the day away, in different rooms of a mutual acquaintance's home, when I noticed Dee. Was wearing a Harley-Davidson sweatshirt. I told her I like her sweatshirt and that we should. Be friends. She thought I was weird! Knowing her as well as I do now, I know what that look meant. That she does. Her friendship has meant the world to me. I feel very fortunate. Links to this post.

Thursday, January 17, 2008. Lisa's AB RR Spreads. This has been a challenging subject for me. Not because of the birds,. But because I wasn't sure if I should do just birds. Then, I'm a bird. Lover and watcher. I sit at my computer and watch the birds come. To the feeders just outside the window. Some days all the birds will. Leave and a Sparrow Hawk comes and sitson my porch rail, looking. We have woodpeckers, and many different varieties of local birds,. Use them for this spread. Links to this post.

Got the lyrics and had way too much stuff for. Two pages. So I added a page in between the spread. Me smile with his music and his wit. Mounted ...

We had a rough time at home and we relied on each other. For support, on a daily basis. Yesterday was by far the worse day of my life. Been, most of his life. Our hearts a...

Saturday, March 29, 2008. Tiffany's First Fatbook page. Tiffany is my 12 year old granddaughter. Both my granddaughters. Are artistic. I started letting them paint with me when they were. Very young.

Both the girls started doing some scrapbooking a few years back. And loved it. Then Krista started doing ATCs with me. Tiffany. This with help from no one.
