M Is For Moon

So…Lately I’m doing good if I update this blog once a month. I’m doing an altered tin swap and thinking it was due October 1st I finished it in September only to find out it wasn’t due until Nov 15th!

Have you ever done one of these? I had not and it isn’t easy so I did a lot of griping and stressing.

It’s a starry moonlit night on the front. M…M is for moon. And do you know what happens during a crescent moon? Fairies wash their panties!

And hang them out to dry! Isn’t that tiny little fairy just the sweetest face thing?

She’s shy so she just peeks out the door.

Who knew this. Tiny yellow panties – you never would have known – hung out to  dry, among the leaves in this secluded place! Goodbye little fairy.

And some sad news. My friend MaryAnn has cancer and is undergoing chemo. MaryAnn hosts our Itty Bitty Book Club – one of my favorite things to do. Rhonda ( Rhondamum ) is putting together an IBB for MaryAnn and these are the two pages I made. The first one: She stood in the storm and when the wind did not blow her away she adjusted her sails.  I know that MaryAnn has adjusted her sails and pray that she is on her way to being cancer free.

This is about as “fall-ish” as I can get right now.  Work in our living room is continuing and it’s a big giant mess so no decorations are out.  These projects are small scale and perfect to work on right now as I am still working on strengthening  my quad muscles.  Therapy is going great and most of it is in a giant heated pool which feels great and makes the rehab a bit easier.

Now I’m going to Beverly’s blog and check out all your Pink Saturday posts. xoxo Nancy
