Well it started with a good day

Posted on 8:51 AM by hill wilf
Let see I have been super busy trying to garden in humid weather which makes you feel  a little droopy with sweat. Southern California is having some unusual super humid weather that gives you no energy. Yesterday my girlfriend and I went to Point Loma to get out  of the heat.We had a great lunch of clams and  watched this really huge seal begging away for fish. This California seal parked  herself right next to the Point Loma fish market and knew a good spot to get handouts as she gazed up at the tourists and locals. Mama seal had a cute youngster and it was such a fun site to see the both of them. There were seagulls, fishing boats and people enjoying the hot day .What a relaxing site Point Loma is.The seals enjoy the marina because the fishing boats come and go with bait and the people are glad to see some ocean life .

Well this morning I looked at  Rug hooking daily and saw a super rude comment about my rug Egg and I and I felt horrible. Believe me the colors are not so fluorescent and the rug looks so much better in person.I really like it.It got me thinking. I have been reading books about primitive rugs and they all have a common theme using what wools you have .Experimenting with color. It makes me wonder do you play it safe with every rug or try different things out?  Do you recall the saying our moms said if you have nothing good to say don't say anything at all. Hummmm...

Last night was a wonderful lightening storm it was beautiful and right over our house. Hugs Cheri
