I vote,"Twila", on the dressform, Jess.

The thing with cowboy boots is that they're geared for riding, with the pointed toe and contoured heel. They're hell to actually work in~that's what work boots are for~lol

yep, those seed catalogs are coming in. Hubby and I were perusing them last night deciding where to put the garden this year.

See Bonne...you know what I am saying, cowboy boots and workboots dont mix and I dont like either, so I got a great logger boot, so work and riding with the same boot will be great.

Yep Nay, gotthe dressform...and which pattern do I make first, or do I just design it myself since that is really why I wanted the dressform!!??..what to do?

oh I can smell spring, just around the corner! Although Jan and Feb can be the worst, time to start Valentines.

My inlaws are gone and you know they were really pleasant to be around this time, whoo hooo!!!

Twila...anymore suggestions girls? My dressform needs a name, my brother in law called her Betty Boobs as I set her up on Christmas night, and I just decided she need not be called that.

I have been getting seed catalogues for the past few weeks too. I NEVER used to get them, so this is like a surprise in the mail. I got a booklet for heirloom tomatoes and other veggies. Might try one of them next summer. Although it is a long way off, before we know it, it really will be warm again and we will be outside until late at night.

Oooohh,thanks for looking at my bloggo!! I think it was really easy...I do have a little trouble moving the pictures to where I want them, but other than that, it is easy and fun. Come on, Jess!! Imagine how much fun you would have doing one!! I so enjoy reading everyone's that I see on MJF. I never leave comments, I just read everything and look at all the pictures. Maybe I should leave comments, huh?

Seriously, I have learned so much reading the blogs out there. Plus, each blogger gives you others to look at. I have found the best tutorials, recipes, ways of living, etc. from people I would never have been able to discover before.

I like Lucinda for the dressform, Jess. Or Shantay! Not shanty! Shan-tay!

Twila Tawanda Ruby Lucinda...getting lengthy.

i cant use Rosina, my kids might think it is weird that i named my dressform after only 1 of them.

I will have to look into different blog slet ups or whatever you need to look into to make a blog..I do not even know. Maybe sometime this 2008 I will get to it.

I love all the blogs too. I am getting better about leaving comments. I know it makes me happy if someone leaves one --even if it is just a "hi" Jessica --you would have blast with one . BLogspot was so easy to set up and add stuff to .
