I've decided to pick it up again

My toothbrush rag rug that is.  I don't think I've worked on this for almost three years. It doesn't take that long to finish one,  but I've had other things to keep me occupied.  I've always loved to see these beautiful,  handmade rugs, draped haphazardly across the floors. I like to handicraft,  and give these to my family, and one of these days... I'll keep one for myself.  There was a tiny local shop,  not to far from here,  that carried numerous handmade items,  and this is where I bought my first rag rug. It is a nice size rug,  that a little lady in her late eightys had crocheted...... and my feet,  at this moment,  are adorning it :)

Storm a Brewing

Did I say I love a good storm? call me crazy, but I do.  I go out back with camera in tow,  listening to the low rumble, as I anticipate the oncoming storm. I love sitting out on our porch swing taking it all in, as I watch the sheets of rain rolling through the field, as the storm lolls me into a most peaceful state of being.... thank you dear Lord.
