week-end went too quickly ....

Jasper keeping my sewing machine seat warm ....

I won a giveaway & the box of goodies arrived [photos to follow in another post].

Last night, DH and I went into Chicago, listening to the hockey game

on the radio ..... went to the

[tee shirt -- gotta have one!]

City Winery [couple blocks from Harpo Studio].

We went to the 2nd, 10pm show

for Margo Timmins, Cowboy Junkies.

I could listen to their music all night!   Anyhow, got so

swept up in her voice, the band, their

sound - and forgot to snap a photo while they were performing.  First song --- Sweet Jane.

They performed a couple songs from Kennedy Suite, their Nomad series,

and song, West of Rome [I think that was the title], song from their

first album, song name escapes me [the album before Trinity Session], and of course

Trinty Session album songs.   Walking after Midnight just rocked.   

Nice venue, great sound, perfect seats.

Wine, rose, was ok [I'm spoiled by Oliver Winery].   

Didn't have much traffic to deal with.

Finally a sunny/windy day --- took Tori's stuffed toys

OK, my toys, too --- outside.

Once back inside - all fresh!!! Now to arrange in the

doll beds and top of wardrobe.   Such a fun task to

end the week-end.

Lafayette Lacemakers is having a Carrickmacross Lace Class

following their next meeting.

So, I obtained a couple second hand books - which arrived - and I enjoyed going thru ...

Nellie O Cleirigh

Doris Campbell Preston

Think I'll do better with some hands-on instruction.   

Keeping my fingers crossed Mother Nature cooperates.  Looking forward to the class.

I had made a few bracelets & of course my Mom's broke.

Guess I need more beading instruction!!!!   This time I added double jump rings.

Fixed my Mom's bracelet - and mailed it ... what a week-end.

Time goes quickly.
