While I was working my way through The Final Countdown at the end of 2020, I unearthed a lot, and I mean a LOT of panels — I did not even realize I had so many! Since I don’t normally buy panels, I know most of these were given to me. Some of them are […]

Time for me to once again make my list of “100 Things To Do In The Next 100 Days”. I find that I’m usually too completely pie-in-the-sky with my lists, so […]

This past year, my friend, Andrea, and I were in charge of the challenge. Andrea said she’d been wanting to do a Log Cabin, so that’s what […]

Although the book has been out for over a year now, it’s one I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of. In fact, I make a point to read it through all over again every once in […]
