So Come Again Another Day......

The visitors left.  But....They booked a flight back in June...How about that.  How awesome is that...so we do not feel alone and do not feel like it is goodbye forever. 
 Awesome is the key word.
The visit was a great success in many ways.  Geraldine bought the kids books...
Well..Dear Evan who hates to read has almost finished the book she bought whilst sipping tea..the Irish way :)  Geraldine knows math too and Declan  fixes screens and handles household spiders..
A big thanks to both of you.....now safely back home in Dublin.
Quilting night...deciding to just finish off bottles of gift wine, etc....gotta recycle, you know...


 Muggs got carried away at the store with bday cakes!!  No one complained!!
 Cleaning day...all hands on board.  Someone.... is the only one small enough to get into the bottom freezer to clean out the ice...you go girl.
 A race with the dog..better these two than me..How much fun!!!!
...
 Non stop nerve racking construction.  No wonder there is no quilting post.
Now all the downstairs doors are wheelchair accessible. 
 Sometimes it is just too much. 
 Mr. O'Quilts has now ordered a trapeze for his hospital bed so he can get up and turn over.
 Random cheer...Molas...What to do with all of these that I got in Panama years and years ago...I just had to throw this one in...
And then there is this cool power cord covers tute..I put it in my Evernote files for future reference when things calm down...when things calm down...when things calm down...
I am out of chocolate.
Good night.

3 cheers for the irish! How wonderful they'll be back in June. I like the way your sewing group has wine and cakes, not just one but 3!!

Looks like a lovely celebration - those cakes are amazing!
Glad you have a future visit to look forward to.
hand in there with the construction, I know it's difficult - more chocolate....

I do love your method of freezer cleaning. Wish I had a wee leprechaun to help with mine but alas mine is the old fashioned tall sort, so I would need a giant helper, not a wee one. Do the Irish mythologies have giants, I wonder? Or just wee ones like faeries and leprechauns? And a trapeze? Oh, my. You are both trying so hard. I admire that a lot. Keep strong headed and resolute, dear one.
