It's been a very long time ...

... but sometimes life gets too busy to sit down and blog. Work is beyond busy and I come home too tired. It is enough right now to keep the house clean, the laundry done and the grass cut. This year that garden has some very beautiful patches of weeds. Ugh!, but it is coming to that time when everything will get pulled and the perennials cut back. I am going to put down an extremely heavy coat of PREEN to help with fewer weeds.

No stitching has been done, no quilts have been cut out, but the Babylock sewing machine is up and having tension issues, so it will be off the the repair shop for her. Lucky for me, I still have the featherweight to use to finish finish ornaments I have stitched over the years.

One a personal note, it is 10 years today that my Dad passed. Miss him every day. Think abut him and Mom everyday. They were separated in death by 9 years, so at least this year they are together, continuing their love they had for 51.5 years of marriage. This photo was at her sister's weeding and they had just gotten engaged.
