Wow. Is he the son you're wanting to put a spare chair in their house? That would have been a handy thing.
It would be great for him to have a chair. I haven't got a new chair and then I would need to get the chair to Michigan. It will happen, just not at this time.

I forgot to say,I did get him a knee stroller. They wanted 85.00 a month to rent. I bought one for 249.00 brand new. Figure with 6 young grandkids and 2 young adult grandkids. They all play sports so it will probably get used again.

Well... I kinda think every home needs at least a manual available in their emergency medical supplies. I see those in thrift shops all of the time for a few dollars. I fractured my knee cap once. I had to plan every move I was going to make before I did it in my home. A chair would have enabled me some let alone a limousine. So yes it's a great idea. I want to read about it when you do it.🤗🙏🙏🙏

And well...it definitely did. 20 points from me to you.🤗 It's really beautiful.

Yes. I posted this on TWITTER as well and a nice gent in California wants to purchase it. Sooo, i need to come up with a fair price 😀

Luckily, the spinners are constructed to fold flat & will fit in a large flat rate mailing box @ $15.00.

Sooooo, I think i posted earlier that I was working on a “story board” for the location that I volunteer at a few times a week (3). Last week one of the crabs molted and I was there soon after to find & retrieve. Other than drying said “molt” I thought that I could make something displayable.

Here’s what I came up with.

Yes the price of a handmade gift of a work of art. How do you charge for something like that? And since you love doing it where do you store all of it if you don't sell some of it 🙂 it's pretty crazy. It takes hours to do just 1. So maybe come up with a price that enables you to keep having fun and cover a bit more.🤪🤗oh me oh my...

Very good. Will the colors remain as it dries?
