September and feels like fall!

Winds of Autumn

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/winds-ov-autumn/

September has arrived in it's cold, clammy fashion in the Pacific Northwest! Rain showers and much cooler. I DON'T like it at all. The weather man says it will be in the 80's this week end, so am keeping my fingers crossed.

We had a nice Labor Day week end. Of course we both labored some but it was still nice. Got to visit with our daughter and grandkids on Sat. night. Had delicious tacos and lots of laughs. Have to admit we got a bit loud but it wasn't long before half of her neighbors were as loud as we were. Don't get to see these grandkids as often, so was very special. I feel so fortunate to have such a "nice" family. Everyone seems to get along and enjoys being with one another. I think if more people would make an effort, more families would be happier.

But who am I to judge?

Mozilla finally got their user count fixed so designers can actually see if their work is getting used. For a whole month we didn't know if anyone was using any of our work. So thanks, Mozilla. I kind of think most of them take their vacations in August because I remember other problems in past August's.

My very favorite television program is Sons of Anarchy. Yes, I know there is a lot of violence in it but I love the show. Have from the very beginning. We started watching Season One (for the 7th time) on Netflix the first part of August and are on the last episode of Season 5 now. Then we can watch Season 6 which I got on DVD last Tues. I can't wait to watch it but season 7 is beginning on TV and it is the last season for SOA. We don't watch it on the TV but wait till it is out on DVD. So am hoping since this will be the last season they won't wait till next fall to put the DVD out. I will have to be very careful about not hearing or reading anything about the last season cause I don't want to know anything! But then at my age, by the time the DVD is out, I will probably have forgotten what I heard or read.

It is time for me to begin dinner and since I don't know anything I will sign off for this time.

Have a good week and drop in again.

(A little about me)

I once said I never wanted a computer, BUT...
one of my grandson's is in the IT Department at WWU and installed Firefox when he built my desktop computer. I really like it and won't use any other browser now. It is safe, fast and has tons of extensions to make it easy for your browsing. One of the add ons they have available are themes which they used to call Personas. They had been called Personas for several years and became very popular, but someone at Mozilla got the bright idea to change the name. Whatever you want to call them they are still a fun quick way to make your browser personal. You can find my Persona/Theme designs at:

I make desktop wallpaper designs to match many of my themes, which you can use as background themes for GMail. You can also use them as a wallpaper for your cell phone. You can find my desktop wallpaper designs at: http://my.desktopnexus.com/MaDonnas/uploads/

I have been making theme designs for my own personal Firefox ever since it was installed. Then it was opened so you could submit designs for approval in 2008. My design called Sunset Over Water had over a million and a half people using it at one time. It is from a photo I took off Chuckanut Drive on our way home from a wedding.

I have always been interested in design. When I was a little girl I designed clothing for my paper dolls. Then designed and made clothes for my regular dolls. I made most of my own clothing in high school. When I was older I designed, sewed and made our 3 kids clothing. When they got married and started having babies I made tons of clothes for our 7 grand kids. I decided to sell some of my designs. Fibromyalgia decided to put a stop to that. Sewing for hours a day was just too much.

I am a bit of an over-achiever and when I start something, I don't know when to quit! I have done a little bit of sewing for our great grand kids, but I know I have a limit and when to stop.

I used to design and make jewelry and sold at bazaars which was a lot of fun.

I work on themes and desktop wallpaper designs almost every day and have enjoyed hearing from people all over the world.

I was asked to design themes for Brand Thunder. They have theme designs for people that use Google Chrome, Internet Explorer, Safari and also Firefox. In 2012 I won a Nexus 7 tablet on a pop culture contest they held. They have changed their format so I don't make designs for them anymore.

I now use Photoshop Elements to make my designs. It is a very complicated program to use, especially at my age of 82.

Thank you all for your comments and using my designs. I will keep making them as long as I can and people enjoy using them.
