October check in..................

Welcome to October where it is still getting into the 80's here in Pahrump, so dress in layers because you freeze in the morning and are sweating in the afternoon. But we do have glorious sunshine...................I am working on my sewing gifties for my 2 Christmas swaps now :)!!!!

Still around life in Nevada

OK I admit that I like a little more humidity than is here. It is so dry and you can feel your skin cracking. My check in for the week making progress with the students.

Checking in.............

Still here trying to get adjusted to my move and no sewing yet either but have found one of the 2 quilt shops in town.

Life in NV

I made it after 3 long days of driving and am slowly finding my way around Pahrump. I do not have an internet connection yet either.

Moving on..............

I am in the process of wrapping my life up here in the Midwest and starting again in Nevada. I have found a job of my heart's desire teaching again and can't wait. Wish me well..............

On my weigh down........!!!!

So far today I have lost 48 lbs and hope to kick another 48 lbs by the end of this yr. That's why my pants are literally falling off my bum!!!!!!
