oh, i bet you think that since i have a very little brain, i am just catching up with the fact that this is now a different year.
not so.
penny told me about the year changing a couple of weeks ago.
even though she wasn’t home, i got to hear fireworks and celebrate with a nice yummy bowl of fish chunks – my favorite.
but today marks another new year – the chinese new year.
and because this is the year of the dragon, i begged penny to let me tell you about it!
in contrast to the worms in yesterday’s email, i love dragons!
actually, the only dragon i really know about is one that quilting daughter, stephanie, made while i was staying with her.
it now hangs on her wall, and has thousands of little, tiny beads that i used to chase around her apartment.
now don’t confuse me with any bean-counter type, because these were beads – and i wasn’t counting them.
i was chasing them around the floor when she dropped them. or when i pushed them off of the table!
anyway, this is the beginning of the year 4709 – i can’t even imagine how long that is.
when you see this week’s online newsletter, you’ll see the dragon and learn about the batik fabric it is made from:
