Big changes for me

My friend that set up my website died suddenly, and I’m sorta lost. I always counted on him to do whatever I needed. So now I’m trying…in the meantime, my body is not doing well, so I’m not doing all of my old activities. But I’m still making buttons, so feel free to think of […]

Need a button?

Business is slow – I’m sure Covid has something to do with it. But are you still having birthdays? Are you supporting someone politically? Are you having an event? One where you could use names on the button fo;r identification? Think about buttons. Whatever you want – very personalized.

BIDEN AND BUTTONS

Great day today! Steve and I drove to Sun City to see Joe Biden – we are both volunteers for the Obama campaign and anxious to see him. Took buttons with us and sold while people were standing in line to get in. We sold $118 bucks worth of buttons, gave away lots to volunteers […]

OKTOBERFEST LEAVES BAD FEELINGS

A group of folk dancers decided to attend this year’s Oktoberfest, put on by the German-American Club in Pinellas Park. We have been to others, and the main problem has been to find seating in the large tent. So this year, we sent Dylan and Bonnie there to get us a table the minute the […]

ACCORDION GETS WORKOUT

June 1 2010. There’s a small group of us that play music 2 times a month, taking place at one of our houses. There’s a couple of fiddlers, fluteists, guitars and me on accordion. We mostly play Irish music, as one of our goals is to be good enough to play with the […]

FLORIDA ORCHESTRA – WICKED DIVAS ON BROADWAY

(November 28 2010) Sounds good? IT WAS! Two gals, Erin Mackey and Julia Murney sang marvelous songs from all my favorite musicals, which couldn’t have been better. The orchestra introduced the evening with the Overture to Gypsy and parts of Carmen. I have never been disappointed by the Florida Orchestra. Too bad they aren’t better […]
