So, it's not like I don't already have enough hobbies, but I thought I would start to learn a little about bonsai.
Instead of buying a pre-done bonsai from a nursery or the mall, I took the advice of the experienced and bought a couple of plants from home depot to start learning on, since it's likely they'll die anyway.
One interesting thing I learned is that real bonsai don't get put into their final shallow tray pots until the plant is in it's finished state. Before then, then are grown and shaped in another pot or in the ground.
So... this is my first purchase, a regular juniper from home depot which I have done some initial shaping on, based on what I "think" it wants to look like. I'll just be letting it grow before doing too much more. I do have some bonsai wire arriving this week so I will be wiring a couple of the branches to influence the shape as it grows, but that's about it for now.
If you have experience in this hobby, please don't hesitate to give me some pointers.
After about an hour of REO, Chicago took the stage. I'm more of an REO fan, my wife's big on Chicago, though, so this was a perfect compromise concert. But as a result, I don't know the names of too many band members.
For my birthday back in August Peter got me canning gear and a copy of The Preservation Kitchen! I have been canning things every chance I've had since then (which admittedly hasn't been many, but still). I've generated quite the stockpile so far - the jars here are just a representative sampling.

I made this for my mom as part of her mother's day gift. The pattern is from Sublime Stitching by Jenny Hart. I'd like to do more embroidery, but I need to figure out my eyes first!
On the day of your gladness also, and at your appointed feasts and at the beginnings of your months, you shall blow the trumpets over your burnt offerings and over the sacrifices of your peace offerings. They shall be a reminder of you before your God: I am the LORD your God. Numbers 10:10
Ox Eye Daisy, just beginning to come into flower.
Everywhere.
-------------------------------------------
Often growing in swathes along a roadside or field margin, the Oxeye daisy is just as at home in traditional hay meadows. The large, white, daisy-like flowers are easy to identify.
A typical grassland plant, the Oxeye daisy thrives on roadside verges and waste ground, as well as in traditional hay meadows and along field margins. Its large blooms appear from July to September and are so bright that they appear to 'glow' in the evening, hence the other common names of 'Moon daisy' and 'Moonpenny'.
The petal-plucking game, 'He loves me; he loves me not', is thought to have started with the Oxeye daisy, and is now a common children's activity. While thinking of a suitor, each petal is plucked until the answer of whether love is possible becomes apparent. However, each 'petal' is actually an individual flower as Oxeye daisies have composite flower heads consisting of yellow 'disc florets', surrounded by 'ray florets' (the 'petals').

Our neighbor's crape myrtle tree is beginning to blossom. Unfortunately the white crape myrtle that my wife and I have has yet to blossom this season.
On New Year's Day we celebrate new beginnings...but time continues to march on regardless of our plans.

The beginning of my first bobbin of "Macaw" merino from The Arts At Eagle's Find.
This wool is super bright. I love it. I'm hoping to finally, finally, FINALLY manage a 3 ply fingering weight. I keep on way undershooting or overshooting it.
Just think for a second how it really starts always .. You are scared of telling the person that you love him/her just cause you don't know if that person loves you back .. And then at times relationships ends cause of misunderstandings which is really sad .. But do you ever think at one moment you really love that relationship when you had it .. And whatever you did was good for you .. And you were all in love .. And at that time thats exactly what you wanted .. So if a good relationship ends don't be sad about it remember the part when you were happy in that relationship :) ..
