I'm me. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Personal opinions, on what I may post or comment, can vary from one person to the next. C'est la vie/Que sera sera/et al. I might, or might not, possibly be on Facebook, Twitter [aka "X"] and-or other social media sites.

One side perk of the "spring cleaning" is the revisiting of some profiles - and doing a quick "lookie-loo" to see if there is anything new, or something I may have missed, to add to the person. So ... cleaned up tree without forfeiting researching to find/add something new so a 'fuller tree', too!

My tension is a 'tinch' loose. The finished doily was supposedly to be 12 x 8 inches. Mine is 12.5 inches x 8.5 instead. Close ... I guess.
Fun pattern, but recommend to watch the videos along with written pattern - the written pattern is nicely detailed, but for bits of it the video was helpful.

Did Jeanine Pirro beat out the remaining slim pickings and make it onto the FOX News 'picks' list or, given the recent ex-gardener selection, is he eyeing a former Mar-A-Lago golf ball washer this time? Or is there a 'deep pocket' still owed a 'favor'/"seat" in exchange for $/kisses?

Gonna have start thinking of 'something' - as I have a large picnic basket & 2 mid-size plastic bins filled with all these completed doilies.
Ordered more crochet thread [Aunt Lydia's 2,730-yards 'balls'] this past weekend to restock my stash - seems I've been going through that stuff like candy.

Everyone's sitting on edge of their seats watching & waiting for what they'll tweet/post next about each other, who will get the car &-or keeping an eye on who removes what post & one is now trying to backpedal so soon in? What is this supposed to distract us from or 'inspire'/'fuel' support for?

Does he _even_ [know how to] drive?
I don't think he even drives his own golf carts.
Only pics of him "behind the wheel" the vehicle isn't moving [or maybe the engine not even running] ... & when it is in motion, he's either in the passenger or back seat.

So, where is it in the bill requiring employers to provide [affordable] healthcare for employees? I can count on 1 finger how many employers I had who provided healthcare to all employees [&, fortunately, affordable] - need more than 2 hands to count how many did not or limited 'who' was applicable.

Apparently Mom, who didn't have much left "to split"/divvy up, thought I 'wanted' her dentures to 'remember her by" ... as that's what I got. No idea 'what' she thought I'd do with them, as they're not a kitschy knick-knack that'll look 'cute' on shelf or table-top.
