A Lazy Day

 Instead of sewing my list of projects....or my holiday list, I made these  ....They have been sitting around for a year or two.

My girl shows off her chicken diaper...she made with love, but not practicality....

Ten year old family cat. Stitch....never blinked an eye as he was transported to Portland, Oregon from his latest NC home.  Here he claims the chicken quilt I made.

The grands and me as we said good=bye to our family home...I miss them so much..'

They are with their wonderful mother now...She is only 40....I am soon to be  78...sigh..

It is hard to say goodbye to yesterday

No use being morose...life goes on...I want to say, "How could they grow up???"   Or/and "How could I grow old??"  This was 3.5 year ago....

On the other hand, I am still here, they are doing well....and this is the life!! Grateful....

Today was morose...I did not sleep last night....morose until I stepped outside on my patio to a stunning sunny day...Fall crispness, Carolina blue sky, warm and beautiful....friends dropping by to visit...and sewing..three books on my lap just in case....

Funny how when a  person gets out of themselves, the good life happens..
