First day

About us

It is now my husband and I after many years of taking care of our family. Beginning with a wonderful son until he left home to become a Marine and as recently as taking care of my mother until her passing and all the life and love in between. We've been happily married since 1982 and I can hardly wait to see what the next 26 years brings. It's been a great ride!

Where did January go?

   Can hardly believe that it is already February. Time sure flies when you're old. lol

I've had a quiet winter and I sure wish it was over. Only 45 more days to go - plus or minus. It has been colder than normal and we've had more snow with 3-5" on the way as I type.

  Have spent most of the time working on Aunt Jo's quilt. I'm not quite half way done with my part and then will pass off to my sister. When she is done with her part I will put the binding on and we'll be able to take it to Jo.
 Here it is basted and started with the quilting. 

 This is my sister's beautiful handwork! 
I'm slow but sure. I'll keep pluggin' along and maybe we'll have it done by her birthday! Time's flying for her too as she will be 83 on April 3rd. If by chance we get it finished before that I plan on giving it to her. No sense taking a chance....she's been on borrowed time for almost 20 years as it is. 
  Not much else to say this morning but will have a diamond day in spite of myself!
