Hello, my name is Flat Sarah and my sister is Lauren Spano.  Lauren's school, Belle Ann Elementary, is doing a big project and that project involved me, Flat Sarah, being in all sorts of situations.  Lauren and our mom Rosanne decided to send me to Nana and Papa because Mom said Nana and Papa are [...]

Note: I wrote this ages ago and apparently I clicked on the draft button instead of post, not saying I'm a bit distracted or anything LOL  either way this should make you laugh, it does it to me every time!   Yeah we all need something completely different now and again.   Trouble is my completely [...]

Before you start reading, if it gets boring jump to the punch line at the bottom………………………….. “The Best Laid Plans of Mice and Men” of which you may have noticed I am neither being of the female persuasion! However, that didn’t make a lick of difference when it comes to the year 2010.  Robert Burns [...]

Who wants to live forever indeed!  Not my hitch hiking lizard it seems and certainly not the snow blower.  Well, I can’t blame the snow blower after all we purchased it in November 2000 so if it was a car it would have gone round the clock twice by now! (yeah….that feeling I know!) Let’s [...]

Yes I'm moving again.  This time back to Utah.  For how long?  Who knows! Property values in Utah have now sunk so low we are under water with every house and because the last tenants (Mark and Rosalind Cazares) in one of the houses didn't pay their rent and cost us hugely to get them [...]

I just did a workshop at one of my quilt guilds, Flying Geese. It was a short 3 hour lesson on how to make a quilt called Those Crazy Cats by Buggy Barn. I just thought it was so cool I took some photos to show you.  No this is NOT the one I made, [...]
