It's probably time again to update this page...I can't say that I've accomplished big things, just many little things...like sewing some skirts for our daughters, baking, cleaning, sorting & eliminating junk, organizing my projects in order of importance to me or pleasure in finishing...not sure about which it is. We haven't taken pictures recently and haven't gone away, just spent time working away at what needs doing. We've had some good family times, entertaining some, and looking at the next week, we'll be hanging out in one waiting room or the other a bit more. Here's a cute shot of from a couple of years ago...isn't she lovely?

taming of the shrew

Have you ever read the book or seen the movie? Well, neither have I...but it fits this blog....as Janine is finding she has roommates in her residence. She's been able to catch them on film as they are not afraid of her...apparently shrews can not see well, but their hearing is suppose to be exceptional...they must like her music for they come out to play when it's on. So some traps were purchased and as you can see, there was some success in catching three of them...they get stuck on the sticky pad and can't run away and when placed outside, they freeze to death...so humane and clean. And the seed (bait) is left for others to be lured with. Ingenious!!!!
