...People are talking...

I was raised in a TINY town, so I'm used to everyBODY knowing everyTHING about everyONE.   This used to Really bother me, and I couldn't wait to escape!   Now that I live in a mid-size city, 100 miles away from where I grew up, it is rather comforting to have a circle of friends surrounding me...

 ...and it never ceases to amaze me how quickly word spreads when I'm working on a new 'S~ Project', and supplies come pouring in from far and wide!!

 First it was my 'Plarn crochet', then the 'Cork Display Board', and most recently the 'Bottle Cap' jewelry.

I never know what I will find a bag of on my back porch ~ that somebody has dropped off while I was away  ...a bag of plastic grocery bags, ...a bag of corks, ...a bag of metal bottle caps...  You JUST.NEVER.KNOW what may be tied to our back door knob or tuck strategically under the edge of the door mat, just waiting to be found, upon our return!!
