Speaking of lights and caves, I feel like I've been living in a cave sometimes. Yesterday I had a pet visit with a client who'd just moved to a new townhouse. First time I'd been to her new place, and when I opened the pantry door to get the kitty food, the light came on automatically. When I closed the door it clicked off. I stood there cpening and closing the door just marvelling at how cool that was. "Hmmmm....wonder if the front closet does that? Well, by golly, it does it too! All the closets must do it!" Like it was some miracle of nature! ROFL! Feel like I just came down the mountain first time in 50 yrs.

Finished mine tonight YAY! They will be off to you soon Kathie. How do I get your address? As soon as I do I will get mine to you.
These were fun, not to much embellishment as these are my first ones and I didn't do the extras, just concentrated on getting them together correctly.
Hope everyone likes what I did do. I am going to try and post pics on my blog tomorrow.

CarolSue,
Sounds like you have a plateful.

LOL
I'm thinking that doing something for 6mos down the road is
being too efficient and takes all the fun out of scrambling for
deadlines. I wonder if we can squeeze in a Spring Equinox/May Day/Time
to Till the Garden etc theme one in.
