The Chicken Coop

I am a paper crafter. I've been playing with paper, and cutting and pasting for many years now and I still just love it. I teach classes each month and would love to have you.
You can find me at MyRedHen.blogspot.com and on Pinterest
or email me at MyRedHen4@yahoo.com
I'd love to hear from you.
Every now and then I have some cards or little treats available for sale that may be seen here.
My blog also contains my personal posts. Ignore them if you like, but you may get a kick out of them. Maybe my girls will read them one day and get insights into the inner workings of an old woman's brain....Scary Thought!
There is a list of labels on the right side of the blog, so you can click there to go to only the posts that you are interested in. That will allow you to skip the personal posts and any items for sale if you wish. No matter which way you choose, I hope will enjoy my little blog and visit often.

Three Men In a Tub

My challenge today is this...
Three people walk into a bar.....

The first is me. I've decided to meet my dear friend Tamra for a relaxing drink. She talks me into another ( She's just that way).Then the third is my oldest friend Carol who comes all the way from Washington to be our designated driver (She is also just that way). We have a wonderful evening together and the next morning Carol kidnaps me and  whisks me away for a nice visit with her in Washington. I'll miss you all of course, but don't worry, she didn't bring my grandbabies along and I can't go too long without seeing them, as most of you know.




Okay, I know we aren't men and we won't be making it home from the bar in a tub, but it just made me think of it. So Rub-dub-dub ladies!

It's All About Me

From a famous writer or celebrity, to a WordPress.com blogger or someone close to you — who would you like to be your biographer?

I would choose my bestest friend Carol. She has known me the longest and probably understands me the most. She knows the things I have been through, both good and bad, and could probably tell my story with the most accuracy and kindness. I'm afraid it would be a colossal waste of her time though. Who on earth would want to read it?

I'd like to buy a vowel Pat

It's me again. I don't know what's the matter with me, but I've been just terrible about keeping my blog updated. It's time I stopped making excuses and just do better.
Anyway,
Here is the writing challenge I received today....
Pick a letter, any letter. Now, write a story, poem, or post in which every line starts with that letter.
I choose the letter "I"
Clipart Toothache
I have been doing very poorly at keeping up with my blog.
I really want to do better.
I am going to try.
I finally got an offending tooth pulled out yesterday, and
I feel much better.
I think they had something more meaningful in mind when they suggested this post.
