I've been enjoying looking at all the old buttons on eBay, the ones I like are inevitably way too much for my purse, but it is fun to run my eyes over the assortments. I especially like the old bakelite and celluloid buttons,k and of course mother of pearl, and plastic has lots to offer as well. Having had this horrid plague bug for almost a month, I resorted all my buttons into jars and lined them up on the windowsill of my sewing studio. It was about all the energy I had available, and of course it is so therapeutic to run your fingers through the buttons.
The sun is out today, the air is almost clear, and I'm not completely exhausted (yet). We have to run into town to buy Dayquil for the lingering coughs and dishwasher soap. What excitement....I'm hoping I haven't missed the union Fair, the fair of my childhood, I like to go see all the animals, the award winning veggies and all the handcrafts. if it is on this weekend, I'm dragging myself there no matter what, i need some visual stimuli.

Karen a trip to the fair sounds like what you need. Hope your cold is getting better. Could be allergies starting again mine are kicking in for another round.
Hope you are well enough to enjoy the fair.
Karen, I'd like to see all of your jars of buttons lined up. ;0) I do hope this bug gets the heck out of your house..enough, already! The fair does sound like a "must do".
Hope you get some pictures...Drop by to see me when you have a moment.
Hugs, Steph
