Update On Our Blogging Friend, Lorna!

This is the 4th time I have 
attempted to post this about
Lorna, I don't know what is
going on, but I am trying it
again, without her picture.

I got to looking on someone's 
blog and it did not show this 
post in their blog roll, it was 
still showing the rug hooking 
post....I have noticed that in
my dashboard, it will show a
new post from a blogger and 
when I click on it, it will 
say that it does not exist, Have
any of you had that problem?
Let's see if this works!

Hey everyone, I just want to let

you all know that I just talked 

to Lorna, of Live Oak Primitive

Peddler.  She saw the specialist

in Dallas, yesterday and he did

surgery on her shoulder this

 morning and she is doing great!

She had about 80% range of 

motion in her arm, while she 

was in surgery....I forgot what 

joint it was, that he said was 

probably the problem, anyway

he said most doctors over look it.

She is waiting for him to come

by to talk to her since the surgery.

She will either get out of the 

hospital, later today or tomorrow

morning.....She is grateful for 

all your prayers and she will 

let you all know the details when

she gets home....I am so happy

for her, I was hoping to get to see

her this week, but she will be

heading back home, soon...I had

so much fun with her when we got 

to meet up for a bit, last February...

"To know her is to love her"

that is what I say!

I want to thank you all for praying

for her, also...She is one sweet lady!

Blessings to you all~Karen

I'm a Hooker!

Hey everyone, I guess I got side

tracked, again!  I apologize to

 those of you, that have been 

waiting on me to post some 

more things for sale. I don't

know why I didn't post more,

I just didn't.  I will do that

soon, though....I need to go

through some more boxes of

things, first....NOW, for the 

 rest of this post....

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I have started something I have

wanted to do for a long time, 

and that is learning to become

a HOOKER, a rug hooker, that is!

I bought some wool from Margie of

Hungry Hook Primitives and some 

online, I read her tutorials, (which 

are great) and I started....I want to

thank Margie for her help, she is so

nice and helpful! I know 

that I was making my loops too 

short and too close together, when 

I first started, but with more 

practice, I got better at it....

I know the hook I have is short, 

which makes it hard for me to get 

the woolies through, without 

twisting them. It is taking me, what 

seems like forever, but I am not 

going to give up! Working with the

big hoop, is not easy, either.

Here is what I've gotten done, 

so far.....I am not too sure I like

real dark in the hearts, will see

how it looks when I get the 

black done....I was thinking

on making this a chair pad, but

I think I will just make it a 

candle mat.

 So, that is what I have been up to,

lately....I see this is going to be an

obsession! I might be slow at it, but 

I love it!

I have some goodies to show you 

all, that I found and I won a 

couple giveaways, so I want to 

share those with you.

I would also like to welcome

my newest followers! I appreciate

you all and love your comments!

Thanks for stopping by, hope you

all are having a great day!

Until next time~
