Updates...

So postal cranes have reached Reading, Newcastle and Lincolnshire safely. News of the London and Bristol cranes is still not in. Details will follow as and when I hear...

Oh and the postcrossing cranes have reached Japan and Germany too.

Whilst those cranes have been busy winging their way across the world, I spent a happy few hours at the weekend making cranes for a future project (more details to follow...).

Happy Spring

It has been such a wet spring here in Portland.  It rained almost every day in March and just about the same way in April so far.  Cherry blossoms which are my favorite flowers in spring only lasted a few days in downtown because of all the rain.  We had a nice sunny day last Saturday, but it didn't last long.  Sorry for complaining, but I'm sooooo ready for more nicer weather!

Today I went to teach my monthly class at the senior assisted residency, and the theme was the spring celebration.  We made tulips and butterflies and pasted them on a sky blue background.  Some of the people wrote "Happy Spring" and "Spring Has Sprung" on the cards.  Those are our wishes right now, for sure.

I was at work on Thursday, and one of the women I work with was having a frustrating phone call. I made her a paper crane in an attempt to cheer her up. It appeared to help.
