A rose from one of our rose bushes.  Very beautiful and fragrant.  The bushes, though, seem a bit spindly.  I really don't think they are getting enough sunlight.  I am thinking of transplanting them in another location where they will get more sunlight?  Probably late fall when the bush is dormant.

I've been busy with guild work...creating a new website for them and as well as becoming the editor of their newsletter.  As a result, I haven't had much time to work in the studio on my projects.  I have been listening to some audiobooks in the background.

I had forgotten how good Carolyn Hart's Death on Demand series book The Christie Caper was.  I actually forgot that there were twenty-seven books in that series.  The series is set in South Carolina's Island of Broward's Rock and I remember that the weather figures into several of the murder plots.

I've also been listening (although it's streaming on Acorn) to The Brokenwood Mysteries.  It's basically a very quirky New Zealand mystery series with a county music loving DI and a very weird medical examiner.

I have gotten back to my exercise routine and that's good but I haven't really gotten any studio work time.  I did rearrange my studio though.  I needed a bit more space and purchased another folding table, a 3' by 6' one.  I had one 2' by 4' table and two what I thought were 3' by 6'.  They weren't.  They were 2 1/2' by 5' tables.  Was I surprised when I got home with the table.

It worked out though...very nicely.  Not in the way I had planned but even better.  I know have three very distinct working areas.  One for fabric projects like my collage fish, one for my junk journal projects and a specific area for my computer work.  And with the new office chair I purchased last spring, I can easily wheel from one area to another.

Take care...

Talk with you tomorrow...
