Diamond painting

My first diamond painting!   My co~worker Amanda has been doing these diamond painting at work.  I thought that it looked interesting so I ordered me some.  At work we can do these between calls.  She says it calms her nerves.  I have several ordered but they are o.n the slow boat from China. 

Now I want all the accessories to the diamond painting.  So I order off  Wish.  Its going to take forever for it to get to Oklahoma.  

Has anyone done any diamond paintings?  Do you enjoy doing them? 

I am keeping my beads in ziplock bags.  I really need to look into other storage ideals.  

Losing a dear friend

Michael  Rest in peace.  

Michael and I have  been friends since 2000 if not before.  I found out today he had passed from his brother Bryan.  My heart is broken.  Yes I knew he was dealing with Cancer but never thought he would pass.  

Back in the day I would have done anything Michael asked or needed.  He was my best friend for many years.  I loved him and his son Trevor along with his parents.   Michael  rest high with the Angel's.  You will be greatly missed. 

Remembering Aunt Kathy

This has to be one of the hardest things ever to say but my sweet, crazy, love able, quirky Aunt Kathy passed today. She was my travel companion, best friend and confidant and she is going to be greatly missed. 

This is a picture of her and my cousin Wendy. Am guessing Wendy to be 3 or 4 years old here.  Love looking at memories. 

Kathy and I on a cruise.  

Aunt Kathy and Aaron. We are in Galveston Texas.

Suzanne, Aunt Kathy and I on another cruise.

On a road trip to our cruise out of Mobile Alabama. 

Aunt Kathy always humored me by letting me pretend to be a photographer.  Am glad I do have the pictures of us to look back on.  Memories are so important especially as I get older.

Here we are on another cruise.  Am not sure she enjoyed cruising as much as me but she went with me anyways.  Our next cruise that we was planning was going to be to Alaska.

 

Clifford

Clifford and grandma 

I'm so happy to have Clifford along with my other grandchildren in my life!  Just holding this baby in my arms brings me much joy to my

 Heart.   Michelle and Aaron gave no ideal how happy they make me.  

Clifford!s 1st birthday

  I can't even believe that my little grandson is already one year old.  I love how he studies everything and everyone so intensely.  Makes me wonder what he thinks.
