I had the great pleasure to meet a 'new' friend yesterday!
You know, an internet friend that you get to finally meet in person!
And, as I have heard about many internet friendships, when first meeting
in person, it is as though you have been friends forever!
She brought gifts!
THANK YOU, CHRIS!!
Many are the plans in a man's heart,

It has been brought to my attention that some people throw away yarn scraps!
NO WAY!!!! LOLOL!!
Here is my collection of scraps and tails.
The scraps will be saved until I have enough for a sweater, poncho, shawl or lapghan.
The tails will be used for something undetermined yet!
Better a dry crust with peace and quiet
than a house full of feasting with strife.

Do not set your heart on what you will eat or drink;
do not worry about it.
For the pagan world runs after all such things,
and your Father knows that you need them.
But seek His kingdom,
and these things will be given to you as well.
