    The miniature hobby has always been a facination. Making a dollhouse became practical as a shared hobby with my sister-in-law. The first simple dollhouse kit (Adams) was great fun. It is as close as I could imagine to historic adobe houses. Library research on historic houses is just as facininating with information about the people and their motivations for building as they did. <br /> I'm lucky to have grand-daughters who are also interested in the dollhouse projects. The youngest (age 4 1/2) wants to drive around neighborhoods to look at "houses with upstairs" so she can pick out colors for her house. <br /> I like unique architecture, historic houses, especially Monterey style, adobe and other brick & stone structures. Other interests are listening to books on tape while working on hobbies: vegetable gardening, art, sewing quilts & costumes, reading and cooking. I'm retired, and attending culinary school.

    Hi, I read your recent post on CTS. I retired from computer science work with it. I recommend wearing your wrist braces at night when you sleep. That will help a lot. Also wear them when driving a car, picking up anything heavy like grocery bags. Take a NSAID (anti inflammatory) like Advil or Tylenol. Don't wear the braces all the time as it will not be good for circulation. Good luck. Abuelita

    Wow! As a weaver I appreciate the magnitude of this little loom. Must have had one in his home to be so accurate.
