WEEK 47!!!!!

 


I am alive!  Yes it has been a month since I last opened up my blog to post on it.  I have been reading all y'alls blogs though.  I may not always comment since, many times I am just grabbing a few moments to catch up with one or two of you while in waiting rooms or hospital rooms.


Anyone else have something like this in their home?  In the back are the Rose City Roller Socks.  Still waiting for me to work on them.  In the front is a ripple (chevron) lapghan I started the middle of this month.  My right wrist is still not able to do much yarn work.  Therefore, these sit next to me and get maybe one or two rows a week put on them.

However.......................I did finish the To The Point Shawl.


I did not get a photo of it before I whisked it off to the church for the Cancer ministry. 

To keep myself busy when I am at home I have been diving into my diamond art and legos.


Hei Hei from Moana was my Mother's day gift from hubby.  He was so much fun to put together.

We did finish the Milky Way Lego set.


It still needs the light kit put on it and then find a place to be displayed.

Hubby bought me Notre Dame for my birthday. My kids got me the light kit to go with it.  I have not started on that yet since my birthday isn't until next Sunday LOL.

I have finished another Diamond Art.


This one took a bit of time.  Lots of color changes not to mention I was a little busy with life this past month.

This is my current project.


I am hoping to complete it this weekend.  The flag is completed and his eye is done.  Now I am working on all the feathers and beak.

On the personal front..................Life has been very busy.  Josh has been in and out of the hospital again.  His short term memory is gone as well as his ability to make decisions and his thought process is getting bad.  He is now in need of 24/7 watching.  The family is taking turns caring for him while Stacie works away from home 3 days a week.  The Dr has suggested Hospice for him.  Not that his passing is eminent, but mainly to help Stacie out with his activities of daily living. (bathing, dressing, grooming etc)  So, that will probably be happening in the next few days. He will stay home and have Hospice come to him each week. That has been taking 90% of my free time.

Tiffany had ankle surgery and so I am also taking her to appointments as she has a hard time driving with this................


The cast finally came off this past week but she is limited to the amount of walking she can do.  I am still taking her to a few Dr appointments when her hubby is scheduled to work.  (We are all 1 car families)

One of Hubby's brothers had a stroke a couple of weeks ago also!  So, hubby has been in ready mode to head off to Las Vegas if needed.  So far, the rest of the family has pitched in and has helped out with his recovery.

So, as you can see, I have been a bit busy with life.  I am on my last week of PT.  I could probably extend it if I truly wanted to but..................I have all the equipment at home to continue on with what they have started.  With everything going on here, I do not think I will continue.  My attention is needed elsewhere.  

Today, I will catch up on laundry, mending, cleaning the fruits and veggies we bought on Friday, making Enrique's dog food and maybe even take a little time for myself!  


In honor of all those who lost their lives fighting for our American freedom.  We honor and thank you! RIP!

Until Next Time...............................Happy Crafting!!!!!!!!!!!!!
