Top of the morning to you, friends...It's St Patrick's Day and I'm behind in blogging and visiting, again! This past week was not a good one. So sick this week! Leaving out details (in case you're having your morning toast) it was pretty rough. Since the release of Covid, there's been all sorts of strange, mutated viruses dancing around our planet. I was violently ill early Monday morning around 3am...it lasted maybe 30 minutes...then I ached all over...had fever for the day...ending with a headache for about three days...then by Friday, poof! Gone! Super strange! I'm fine now...with a little weakness but generally, okay.
Ann sent a super cute, handmade card! I love getting "real" mail! Larry came in with it saying, "I'll bet it's a card..."...lolol...anyway, she can do pretty much anything she sets her mind to...I love her.
Saturday morning came and feeling chipper, I took a ride down to visit our daughter, Crystal...who had come up to keep Sloane for Samantha and Everett. Sam had a wedding to work and Crystal visits as often as she can to keep the baby. They live in the country and after all the rain, the fields were beautiful.
Sloane loves gumbo...lol...first time eating it and couldn't get enough.
Saturday's breakfast...hashbrowns, toast and two, easy-over...mine are a little cracked...lolol
Lunch...roast, mashed potatoes and green beans...
Ever hopeful something hits the floor...and yes, sometimes...it does.
I had to get a gift for a new mother and baby boy...a busy shop had just what I needed.
Crystal had flown to Arkansas to meet up with her son and our granbaby, William (Air Force). They went shopping for Will, a new set of recliners. He and his girlfriend, Alyssa, broke up...and she took her sofa. They'd been together three years so it wasn't a happy weekend.... just sad...but he'll be alright. Such a gentle soul.
Meanwhile, his sister...
Samantha (left) and friend began a side business for weddings. They both have full-time positions as stylist but are doing weddings on the side. Hair and make-up. So busy! They're doing great.
Another of Larry's wood projects...You can change out the months to years...the name...grades...by turning the dial...ingenious.
Me? I finally got back to my quilt. I've gotten about a third of it quilted...straight line, stitch-in-the-ditch. It's big enough to be hard on the shoulders...pushing, pulling...tugging it through the machine. No hand quilting for me! lol
Well, I've bent your ear long enough this morning. Hope you all have a sweet St Patrick's Day!
So...until next time...
