savtasblog123

This is another attempt to start my blog. Usually I forget where I am and never make a note of it.
Yes,I am a savta. In Hebrew it means "grandmother". I love the word because if you take the "v" and pronounce it like an "f" it becomes soft like a pillow.
I am somestimes called a renaissance woman but I don't think of myself as that.
I find that,being of this world, I find t6his world of mine fascinating. Sometimes I can go deeply into my interest of the moment. this can take years, such as quillting and sewing. Others like computers lay on the surface. So just bear with me.
