My aunt wrote a sequel to her first book The Christmas Tree. It is called The Paperboy's Dream and talks about how my Uncle Steve first learned about paratroopers and how he decided he wanted to jump out of planes.  And how he managed to make that happen. 

It turns out that his awareness was triggered by a stunt by Bernarr Macfadden. That was an interesting internet hole to dive into. You never know what experiences will impact others. 

Posting these links to her author's page and books so that people can find them. I'm not sure why her friends struggle with the Lulu Bookstore so much, but they do.

Memories

 I found a really interesting project online and wanted to share (and save it).  I am working on a project to make pillow cases out of tees and the few that I have done in the past are either sewn closed (so hard to clean) or the cat climbs into them. Seriously. She loves to hide in open pillows. 

So, this DIY trick for an envelope pillow cover, using existing seams, seems like a great idea. Saving it to try and will update if they work! 

Second verse, same as the first....

Wow. What a year.

Back in April, I posted about how COVID-19 has changed so much and parts of the world seem absolutely frozen right now.  We are in worse shape now than we were back then. 

We should be learning to adapt, but people who resist change are dragging this illness around with them. But, projects persist and life goes on. 

If you need help with a project or someone to fill a gap while things continue to change let me know.
