It's Tuesday!

Second day of sewing class for McNeese's kids college.  Too fun.  All ten year olds this week! 

Two days of no rain!  The heat is returning!  There was a tornado in south Lake Charles Saturday night.  Having lived through two major tornadoes in Bossier City, tornadoes terrify me!

Missing the beach and my sunrises.  But actually saw stars last night.  I do love the tall trees with the moon peaking through!  And the chirping of crickets and frogs! 

Getting tired of mobile facebook.  Today all my statuses was a list of pages friends liked--no updates, no personal info, no personal photos.  I tried to post.  Typed my info.  Hit post.  And fb shut down.  I hardly go on fb any more because it never works right.  I definitely miss the way it was!
So for me, my blog will be my fb. 

Back to school shopping has begun.  School seems to start earlier and earlier in August. 

Working on new ebook--Healthy cooking with kids.  May have to divide into two books--having fun creating an Around the World section in the book.  Thinking I could also focus on the 50 states.  Thinking out loud I guess!

Making each day count!!

UPDATE on my Adventures

It has been a while since I blogged on here. Going to return to blogging. I miss it. Been doing e-books on both Barnes and Noble and Amazon for both the Nook and Kindle. I like it. I make a little money every month which is nice. Been sewing baby dresses. I would like to pick up another shop or two but so far, the local store--The Baby Cottage--buys everything I make. Not bad but I know more now than I did a few months ago. I think I could sell my clothes at a little higher price wholesale if I pick up new stores.
I am on pinterest and facebook--Brenda Boyett Edwards Lauw. Check me out! I have regretfully moved from Galveston. I am living in Sulphur, Louisiana. Cajun country for sure! Oh my, the spices they add to their food!!
Although I love G-town--and it will always be in my soul--I love being around my son and his family! It has not been easy for any of us. But, I needed family. I was a single parent forever, responsible for making too many decisions both good and bad alone, responsible for working, rearing kids, maintaining a home--all alone. Most times now, I defer to my son even for the simpliest things like a flat tire or a dead car battery. I need minimum monies to live on. I am doing what I love to do--writing, sewing, a little art. I play with my two and half year old grandson--the highlight of my days! For now, this is where I need to be!
