My New Dishcloth

I just finished making this dishcloth and will be starting another. It was really fun to make and it is called the optical illusion cloth. It looks like a little box but is actually flat.

My Birthday

Tomorrow is my birthday, my kids and one grandson took me out for a wonderful Mexican Dinner at my favorite restaurant. We had a great time. I got some wonderful gifts including a web cam for my computer. Now when my grandson calls from Afghanistan , I can see him as well as talk to him. Isn't that a wonderful invention ? I call this computer my magic box since it does such wonderful things, including sometimes driving me crazy.

A special email came today.

I am very happy today as I got an email from my DGS in Afghanistan. It was short, sweet and to the point. Of course he can't say much about where he is. It was just good to hear from him.

My Grandson Christopher

Chris left yesterday morning for his tour in Afghanistan. I am a wreck. He called to say good bye and we both cried. I pray he will be safe and come home asap. He has Skype on his laptop and my son, Chris's dad , was here today and he downloaded it for me, but have to get a webcam for my computer so I can see him when we talk.
