Miss me? I have decided to give this blogging thing another try.

We have a few new things going on around here and someone out there just might find them interesting.

1. Whale Watching. Madeline and I have become Whale Watching Volunteers. So far it’s been very fun and a lot more interesting than we even thought it would be. For more information keep an eye on this blog or check here: http://www.whalespoken.org/ for the spring watch we will be stationed at Cape Disappointment on the southern tip of the Washington coast.

2. Business. I am just now in the process of signing on to be a HomeMaiden personal shopper. It’s a new company that uses the home party style of sales and I really like their stuff. If you’d like to know more about that, check here:http://www.homemaiden.com/ But don’t buy anything, wait until I’m signed up and then buy it from me!

3. Craft fair. Our swim club is having another craft fair and I am going to sell hoops. It’s going to be April 28th so I need to get those hoops going! So far all my hoops are decorated with electrical tape, but I’m going to try some spray paint and ribbons. I’ll let you know how it goes.

4. Baking. I have been the crazy baking woman lately. I’ve been making cookies, lemon bars and my usual breads. My focus is on pure ingredients. As much as possible everything is organically grown, not genetically modified and baked with out contacting aluminum. I have learned a few things along the way, but for the most part everything has been yummy! And I look rather fetching in my apron Amelia gave me for my birthday!

5. Barack Obama. I am totally excited about the Obama in ‘08 candidacy. I really like him. In the years, decades that I have been old enough to vote I have never liked a candidate. I was going to say that I haven’t like one as well as I like Obama, but really I never have liked one at all. I have faithfully voted for the lesser of evils and usually the one I voted for didn’t win. But this time it’s really different. If the primaries come and go and he isn’t the nominee I’ll be beside myself.

Wow, five new things.

Peace,

Sharon
