Update on life

Finally getting back to posting a little. Haven't had the time to do much sewing.but I did get the June block done for Carol Doaks Block of the Month.Used some more of the fish fabric and the bright orange batik. This will be a wild quilt if I ever get it put together.

Two more months and we will have 12 blocks.

This past week has had it's ups and downs. Hubby was doing really good and then all of a sudden he started to keep to much fluid and with a heart patient this is not good. His feet and ankles swell up and drastic measures have to be started. He decided he needed to go to the ER at 1 in the morning. Called 911. Thank goodness our daughter was here for the night and she did the driving. Really thought they would keep him but nope after we had come home and almost in bed. The call came to come get me. Doctor figured he would do as well at home than in the hospital except there are no nurses to take care of him when he can't sleep and need help getting around. Really hard not to have but a couple hours sleep in a night and then keep going during the day. Daughter had to go back home to get ready for a trip tomorrow to Texas with the church youth chorus called the Voices of Praise. This time it is 14 year old Dan that is singing in it. Since his sisters graduated he finally said he would join.

They are going to Austin and visit the capital and sing in the rotunda plus the church they attend on Sunday and several other places. Going back to San Antonio in the middle of the week and spending a day at Six Flags. Sounds like a lot of fun. Daughter likes to go along as a chaperon and also takes care of the girls dresses.

She called this afternoon to say she had the job she wanted. After all those nights going to school getting her Master's and Education certificate she finally will have her very own class. She interviewed for four different ones and the one she got is the one she really wanted. This is in an elementary school so the children will not be as physically handicapped as at the school she has been an assistant at for the last seven years.

Really is good to see your children grow up have wonderful families and then get to do what they really enjoy to make a good living.
At least the teachers salaries are a lot better now than when hubby was teaching.

Hope I can start getting back to some sewing. Need to finish up this Orange Crush top and the Plaid blocks that I started a long time ago. All I need is to finish the last round on them and it's all sitting on my sewing machine.

Guess I should get off the Internet and do something else. Thanks for stopping by.
