Busy....

Just a little touch of beauty from the Windy Ridge day lily gardens near us....

Spent last night taking Roger to ER....too tired to go into details.  They kept him over night, let him come home late this evening...they don't know what is causing the problem...they ran all kinds of tests.  Did say that he had had a stroke but that it had been long ago....

I want to whine and complain, but trying to just be thankful that he is home and so good, so far.  This was a second episode...it happened last week, but we did not go to ER, did not go to the dr.  He didn't want to end up in the hospital and miss our family reunion.

Yesterday, I had started my decluttering thing again...and actually got rid of quite a few things from the kitchen.  Some we donated to the Light House Mission and some went in the garbage.  I had manuals from things we don't even have...I had some seasonings that were ancient.  So into the garbage they went. 

Hoping I can get myself psyched up to do more.   There is so much left to do.  Even though I have rid myself of so much stuff...I need to let go of more.  Seems like we have so much that just clutters up our lives.  For now, I am going to get off here and totally relax...

A great weekend...

Every year, us brothers and sisters and families try to meet for a family picnic.  This year was no different.  It is the only time that Lorelei and her cousin Jackson see each other.  But they picked up where they left off...they played and played...

I want you to look at their expressions...aren't they priceless!

Then look at this one of Lorelei with her Aunt Patti.

That was Saturday...

Yesterday I decided I best get a move on and finish the binding on this Little Crumbs in the Corner quilt.

Of course the wind was never calm....it is always blowing when I take photos of quilts....so lucky to get one without the wind curling up a corner.  And if they aren't curling, it is still blowing and hard to get in focus.

From Nashville, Indiana

When we go to Nashville, Indiana, I really enjoy just looking!  There is always so much to catch the eye.  Such as the dragonfly above, or the butterfly below.

I really like them, but have seen similar ones before.

But I have never seen this quite before.  A log used as a planter!  I think it is a pretty cool idea...

I sat and worked on my binding on the little quilt last night....I could actually have stayed up all night sewing on it.  I forget just how much I enjoy sitting and sewing by hand.  Being that it is just a tad bit less 5 ft. each way, I have it over half done.  I am itching to get it done and start on some new project.
