WindsorHums!

Beatrice Fantoni wrote a fun article about the WindsorHums! t shirts I made.

What is the Windsor hum,… you may ask.

There has been a reported ‘hum’ in the city of Windsor, Ontario. Some people hear what is described as a low-frequency rumbling sound that has rattled windows and knocked objects off shelves in this border community, which is just across the Detroit River from the Motor City. Locals have said it sounds like a large diesel truck idling, a loud boom box or the bass vocals of Barry White.

I personally haven’t heard this hum but have talked to people that have and thought I would have a little fun with it. Windsor is great place to live, work & play - I love living here!

Check out the shirts on Etsy or if you live in the Windsor area you can find them at Jones & Co. 1755 Wyandotte St. E.

Today I worked out next to my yoga mat as it was occupied and I didn’t have the heart to move him. I think I have a little rug burn but I was glad to at least have the carpet.

Clean Bearings

Last Sunday night at practice with the Border City Brawlers, I noticed that my wheels were really dirty and today was cleaning day. After borrowing a bearing press from Mike Foster I was able to clean the bearings, oil and reassemble them. I was so excited to try them that I laced them up while still in my kitchen, it was fun rolling around as I emptied my dishwasher and I enjoyed the 3 extra inches of height the skates gave me. I think that if I could do all my house cleaning in roller skates I would have the cleanest house around!

Tweaking a Blouse

Have you ever lost a blouse to stains, tear’s, shrinking, ironing mishap’s? Speaking of ironing mishaps, I was ironing the blouse when I lost the blouse, there was no fixing it so I tweaked it - take a look at my new blouse. What do you think?

A great day for a ride!

Today, I was thinking about how many wonderful people have brought me a flamingo in the last few years, a reflection of my business name. So I thought I would take a few pictures and share them with you. During this process Brittany (she recently opened a business called Hodge Podge), who recently took a sewing workshop showed up with her cute baby, Tulip, Tulip had a couple of fun flamingo lights. It’s so much fun when someone comes in here with a flamingo in hand, I feel very thankful to all who thought of me when they found a flamingo treasure, what a fun way they showed their support, I find it very encouraging - thanks guys!
