Sunrise, sunset....

There have been two nights in a row where the sunset has been so beautiful.  I usually capture really great sunrises, as I see them right out my kitchen window in the mornings.  But sunsets are much harder for me.  By the time I see the sunset, I only have about 2 minutes to grab the camera, and get on the porch, focus, find the right setting, and get photos - and hope they aren't shaky. A lot of my photos are shaky because of me.  Sometimes it's the settings I use (as I'm uneducated but plan on changing that this year).  Anyway, the photos will also make nice cards, I think...  Here is one of them....

Isn't nature amazing?  I will work on making some more cards tomorrow.  I asked on FB what people thought about the photos as cards; would they use them; how much they'd charge; and did they think they'd sell?  I had 3 people tell me they wanted cards!  I will make 3 sets of 4 cards each, and send them out, and tell the people there is no charge, on one condition - they have to be totally honest with me that they would actually BUY another set in the future, or not (and why).  They must be totally honest with me!

On my crafting.....I gave the memory cards to my Grand Baby Girl today. She had fun throwing them around - hey, she's only one year old. lol.  I didn't expect her to play with them!  Maybe in the future tho.  If they are still around then................

I have been thinking about the warp I've been winding....considering taking it off the warping board - again!  Can you believe that?  Oye.  I think that I'm worried that if I wind 2 separate bouts of colors, I will get the yarn all tangled and make a mess out of it - see, I've done that twice before.  Wound all one color, then another and tried to warp the loom with it.  Both times I made a horrible mess and ended up tossing the yarn.  I don't want to do that with this cotton.....so, I am considering taking it off the board and back onto the cone, then, I will wind the warp with 4 of the dark color and 4 of the light - only problem with that is when you wind, you get an uneven number.....so not sure how I'll fix that problem....I tell ya, this organized weaving is going to make me nuts!  LoL

I enjoyed babysitting today, although it really exhausts me. Oh, I took Grand Baby Girl to the sewing center in Lakeridge that sells Janomes, and I really fell in love with the 6600.....but I'm gonna have to get serious about selling these two looms - even if I have to sell them at lower prices.  The sewing machine costs $2000 with the table and I might as well GET the table.  Otherwise it's $1500 without the table - but, the machine is bigger than your average table....so, I might as well get the nice sewing table with the machine (it's a $700 table so I guess I'm "saving" $200....).  It has lots of pretty stitches on it and that's what I want!  Financing is available and if I pay it off in a year, it's interest free.....only problem is, that's about $175 a month....which I don't have cuz I'm not working!

Anyway, that's a dream for the future...I'll just have to get a photo and put it on my Vision Board!

I'm rambling now, I'm really tired.   I hope you enjoyed my Sunset photo.  Have a great night.  I'm off to watch some t.v. and then go nighty night.  Got a bit of a headache....
