Happy 11-1-11, My Birthday!

"Today is my birthday, Coralee said." So began many of my birthdays with that line from Coralee Cruthers, usually spoken by my mother. Today I am 63. Looking around, I like the landscape. My golden years are agreeing with me as I shed old, ill-fitting skins in favor of a slightly more wrinkled but comfy skin of elderness.

For the month of November I have a heavy daily line-up.  I am holding fast to my goal of having Thanksgiving in my house for the first time in years, probably over more than a decade. I am attempting NaNoWriMo. I have quilts to complete and prayer flags to sew, along with any gifts I may be making. Lots to do. Time to get really organized and clean, clean, clean!!

First prayer flag is completed and posted to the Prayer Flag Project. The prayer is for/to Love: 

Today I will be working on a woven flag that's been in my head for a couple of weeks but it only became a new flag in the last couple of days. Fun!! My day is going to be spent by myself, kind of sorting through my own thoughts and then writing as I try to get my stories out of my head and onto a page. So I say, "Go for it!" to whatever your "it" might be. These golden years are the prize!
