Mrs. O'Scraps and Her Horrible, No Good Great Day

My new cousin, Mary Lou sent me this picture of a butterfly on a butterfly bush from  her garden.

Amazing how it brightened my day.  xoxox ML

Here I was last night, in a better mood...playing with scraps for a potholder

Spoonflower just had a 50% off fat quarter sale.

These two fabrics just  made my day better.

Life's strange twists....My mother's neurologist loved and loved the potholders I gave her.  I promised her more.  That was 9 years ago just before my mother died.  OMG..Yesterday I met a new friend who lives here. She was going to the same doctor.  I sent the potholders with her to the doctor.

NINE years later, she knew exactly who they were from...So nice.  She called me tonight to say thanks and catch up...Lovely.

Continuing my day, a visit at our consignment shop..I nabbed this basket for 6$

A thrill as I love baskets.

Dinner tonight with friends  here...and the mood hit...Must find out who Pearl's sister is.

I  am so  looking for my people here...I told a friend to clarify her statements about the negative comments  yesterday.  She did not know what I was talking about!!!!!

How in the world could I have such unrealistic expectations of friends.????

We do remember that  unrealistic expectations bring about resentments...and Bingo. I was there.

I am not the only one who has suffered major losses in life...

I do think that week 3 of this  post operation recovery business has distorted my mind.

I am reminded of the saying, "If  you are  up in your head, you are in a very bad neighborhood!!"

Lucky  me has a brand new chance tomorrow..
