Faits Accomplis

Brown Bear, Brown Bear...is today's finish....see the comfy flannel backing.
.I think that this quilt, with a copy of the book, will make a nice baby present.
. This was quite an accomplishment as it is the last of my long stored basted quilts.
Finally quilted!!..
 Voila.. the seven 12 inch blocks I have finished for Muggs' beach house quilt. 
 I am thinking that twelve blocks will be enough with lattice for a throw quilt.
Featured....the President's Day block, Christmas, Sunshine on a stormy day, birthday block, Valentines, Halloween and I do not know what else...Next up St. Paddy's Day and Easter...lol..
My sister gave me this cool picture frame years ago...I put my own picture in it at that time.
..feeling blue that my time was gone and youth had flown...blah blah...melodrama...
That was years ago...now I keep it up to remind myself that though I was young once,
 I am still here.
With that funny...comes the update on my dear man.

Two mornings in a row, when I got up at 6 to get the children to their school buses,...
I found Mr. O'Quilt's head hung low, with pillows all over the floor.  The night before last, he called the monitor and I was up at 3 am trying to work it out myself...I ended up calling my sister to come over at 3:30 to adjust his dead weight body and support his neck.
.He is a two man lift at this stage.
Anxiety all  over the place.  She offered to stay the night...but, oh, no...
Himself would not have it. 
 He says wait until he is worse...OMG...worse??? 
 Please God let me have enough money to keep him at home. 
Crazy American health care system for catastrophic illness.
