 Starting the second one for Rhonda..just love a yellow face:)
Poor Lynsey...the FLU!!!!  Despite having had the flu shot.
Headache....high fever...lethargy...cough...etc..
We are all wearing masks and washing our hands.
TBTG she is feeling better...pray none of the rest of us gets it.
 The very cool Shutterfly photo book Aunt Emily gave her for her 8th birthday.
Lynsey and her Muldoon family.
 An apron from the 50's or 60's
Apple green....just love that color.

Briefly......cough.. short cough..
Went to  my pre-op...and passed.
Monday the 27th, this bionic women gets an entirely new left shoulder..
Was called by two teachers about Evan's behavior.
Took away the X-Box  until the grades improve.
Suffered through terrible 11 and a half year old middle school snotty  mouth
took Evan for his last DVP??shot.
Called my peeps for moral support

DIL in ER tonight for possible problem with appendix.

Getting fatter everyday from stress!!
However...the Sarge shows up tomorrow night from Seattle.
I am so grateful for a daughter who loves me so.

So sad that so many of my blogging friends have switched to Instagram.
So impersonal...I am being brave..

Hope Lynsey improves quickly! At least she does have a sweet smile on her face. Well, not long now before you have your new shoulder and after a few weeks have passed I'm sure you will be much more comfortable.
I too have noticed that a lot of bloggers, whose posts I looked forward to, are now with Instagram, one of the things about blogging are the stories and "conversations" to he enjoyed!
Now, if I don't find a chance to be in touch before your surgery know that I shall be thinking of you and wishing you well and a speedy recovery to soon be back home again!

Love your hedgehog ~ ~ what a fun block and quilt it will become. And so sorry your Lynsey is so sick. My grans have had it too (and their Mama) so I am praying you make it through your surgery without it!!!

Blogging vs instagram. I've resisted instagram and sooo miss my blogging friends. I've finally sorted it out in my head ~ ~ blogging is about who we are and what we think and feel. Instagram is what we've done. And we are sooo much more than photos of projects. I love the sense of camaraderie of reading blogs and interacting. Thanks for being "brave"!! I look forward to our visits.

Love your Hazel Hedgehog block! Sorry Lyndsey is sick - I hope you can avoid it so it doesn't interfere with your surgery! And good luck with the surgery! I hope you heal easily and quickly, and are home again soon. I'll be thinking of you!

Yes, I've gone to IG, but I haven't forgotten my blog completely. It seem to be harder to post lately - I'm too busy, somehow. I always plan to do it, but then something happens and my time slips away from me. IG is a very quick post, but you're right, there is not the personal connection there, and that is what I love about blogging.

Wishing you the best with your surgery and for a speedy recovery. Not fun when our parts wear out--but a lot better than 25-50 years ago.
Also hoping the flu-girl recovers quickly and that no one else gets it!
