Just and update

We took Ky mom home Saturday. 17 and a half hours in the car.  It took its toll on me. Here it is  Tuesday and I am still feeling the pain in my hips.  She seemed  OK with going home.   She is a pistol, but I cried when I had to leave her.  She is the only mother I have left on this earth except a dear fried that use to live in the woods behind us .  I considered her to always be in that place in my heart.

I have been working on projects.  I have made a short sleeve cardi and purse for a little girl named Poppy.  I have a simple dress pattern and fabric with poppy print on it .  I need interfacing  for the facing and some bias tape then I will start on the dress Thursday.  I will go into town tomorrow to get my supplies.  The cardi matches the dress fabric.   I am still knitting Bubs scarf and working on a blanket in my spare moments.

We may have had hail damage on the roof.  We called today.  We called about getting gas in the tank....getting to be that time of year. The trees have started to look like they are getting ready to turn. It has cooled off some.  We have been sitting on the porch, and enjoying it.

We had beans an cornbread for supper.  We just love it, but I make fried corncakes and put onions in them so it may not be as good for us as it should be.

Well the house is about in order again. Beds stripped, mopped and set in order. Bub and his family come down this weekend to help dad put in shelves in the small barn.  Then we load up the truck with his things he had stored here and go to Desoto Sunday.....another trip oh my.  I will have a big pot of stew made for Saturday that way its easy for me not knowing when everyone will get here. I am sure all my boys and their families will be here.  MY DD will be out of town.

Look at me I wrote a book.   I wish you a wonderful week filled with good news and fun...send some back.....love and hugs sent to all that stop by.

Off to my knitting
