    Embroidery anyone?

    This weekend I decided to learn to embroidery and so far so good. It seems to leaving little pin pricks in the end of my finger but not deep ones but other than that I am looking forward to learning more than one stitch. Anyone else tried it? Know any good stitches?

    train station camera

    I found this while browsing Youtube and now I'll be awake all night:). Why didn't I know about this sooner:(? It's a great station. Tiny, small town, fun place to watch the train come in. Was there years ago because I was driving towards Kirksville, saw the Amtrak sign, and made a very sudden...

    Drinking

    Went to a little semi-private art show sorta shin-dig last night, all adults of around 35 years old and up to 88 years. What bothered me the most was there were no non-alcoholic beverages offered, though there was a little bit of left over club soda sitting next to the sangria. I had brought two...

    -isms

    Not sure if this is religion, philosophy, or what. Lets avoid the purely political isms for this thread, though there are certainly a wonderful assortment of those isms. And though your favorite ism need not be religious, I put the question here to allow for that. My question is, what is your...

    head covering questions

    As a fan of head covering, but not being religious, I am curious about the different attitudes toward the accessories. Why do some religious people cover their heads; why do others not? How do those of you who do cover feel about us non-religious wearing similar head coverings? I have found an...

    would love to talk religion without politics

    Sometimes a bit of religious themed conversation might interest me but I don't want to talk about politics so I haven't enabled the religion and politic section. Anyone else want the two separate?

    What do think the essence of ASD is?

    What is that one thing all of us share? From being on this forum and just looking around at my family it sometimes seems like there is nothing any of us share other than a label. So is there a common shared trait and what is it? I feel like I am simply operating with a brain set at a different...

    Plain dressing(clothes, not salad!)

    I am sorta apatheistic/atheist/agnostic-ish with Quaker leanings but this is really about neither. It's about women's clothing, practical-ness, comfort, and culture. The last few days I have spent a bit of time blocking pins promoted by women's clothing companies that pop up on Pinterest. It...

    Morton's toe and ASD?

    Curious if Morton's toe is more common among those with ASD than the general population. Just found out that this is even considered a foot defect today. I always knew my second toe was longer than my big toe, but so. Anyhoo, apparently it's not really uncommon, 20-30% of the world's population...

    showing art/public performance

    Anyone one else show any of their artwork? Perform music publicly? My questions are; do you think it's worth the effort? what are your personal criteria for when and where? is it embarrassing? has anything good came from it? Curious because I keep showing art at the same place but am starting...

    Bunny amusements

    My bunnies are always needing new entertainment. I have cardboard boxes, a mail cubby for one where I put junk mail for him to pull out over and over again. They also each have toys that dispense pellets as they roll the toys around the room. I have one bunny, Larry, who despite all this is...

    west Texas, New Mexico in March, where and when to go and avoid spring break crowds?

    Wanting to camp in desert areas in mid through late March but worried about spring break hikers and campers after reading about busiest times for Big Bend National Park. Anyone familiar with the western part of Texas and eastern half of New Mexico (maybe even south east Colorado) who would know...

    computer skills for art

    I have accepted that I am not the tech type and never will be. I like making art with things that get my hands dirty and mess up my desk and spill on the floor. I like the sound of a pencil and scrubbing a paintbrush down to a nubbin. In the last couple of years my art has improved and I feel...

    new lighting in the kitchen

    We have old florescent lighting in the kitchen. It buzzes and I can barely stand to be in the kitchen when the over head lights are on. So, my boyfriend has decided that it's past time to change them to something I can tolerate. The question is do we go with LED or will the newer florescent...

    The Post?

    I rarely go see a film. In the last six years I've only seen one movie at a regular theater (and it was a terrible experience), the other 3 were documentaries at the non-profit artsy sorta theater(always quiet enough to tolerate). Most movies I see advertised I don't even want to see on DVD...

    Being a hermit/recluse

    I was thinking the other day while feeling generally left out and suffering a serious case of the blahs about what a social failure I am. And then I thought about the people on this forum who want to be hermits. And then I realized I couldn't very well be a hermit, I have 4 friends and don't...

    avoiding balloons

    I was looking at a craft project that involved wrapping glue or Modge Podge dipped string around a balloon. The balloon is removed by letting the air out after the string dries. Nice project unless you are terrified of popping balloons (and after my last balloon popping induced public meltdown I...
