Successful Mission To Space

I was sitting on the edge of my seat while watching the lift-off and landing of the first human flight into space taking place. This first human flight into and return from space was emotional and I KNOW my Mister was watching it as well, in his own way. He loved the space programs, the skies, the planets and air adventures. 

As the crew came out of the capsule I had a strong urge to hug each of them and push away the others in my way so I could! I wanted to jump up and down with Wally. An extremely exciting moment of a lifetime happened !

What a historic day! The entire flight was so much more than I had expected and was a job well done!

Many years ago I created my versions of what space would look like to me.

 

Hanging Indoors...

Well I’ll bet you wonder what I’ve been doing. I’ll tell you that not much is going on here right now. It is a bit too chilly for long stays outdoors, even though the sun has been shining. I'm waiting for more flowers to bloom and, of course the pollen.

Reading and note-card making today have been my main occupations and now I’m in a creative mood so the note card count will increase. I just started feeling the mood and have all of my supplies ready and waiting. I brought them from home and now realize that my workspace here is uncomfortably limited! And there is the question of meals. Spread it out, start to work, and suddenly it is mealtime! (Not for me, but the Mister insists on eating at regular hours.)

Ok, I'll stop fussing now and maybe I will have created more than the measly six that I made this morning. I do not work on projects after lunch because my creative juices flow only in the morning! Would you believe that? It's true.

They are actually perfectly rectangle-shaped 5 1/4 x 8 inches so can be mailed with only one stamp on the envelope. This photographer had a bit of a time taking their pictures.
