Joe's quilt




Today I finished Joe's quilt. It was perfect timing because he called to see if I wanted to have lunch. Here he is with it & he loves it! He picked out the car fabric & I did the rest. (thanks TSB for the pattern) PS. Lunch was yummy ... Steve & Ryan went too.

Busy weekend

Time flies by when your busy busy. Saturday morning Sarah had a friends Bar Mitzvah to attened, Steve went too. I cleaned house while they were at services. A friend came over in the afternoon for lunch and to work on a quilt project. Later in the evening Steve & I had sushi dinner while Sarah attended the BM party and Ryan hung out with grandma.
Sunday flew by too.... laundry, Sunday school, Sarah's basketball game, a visit with Doris & dinner.
Today Sarah headed back to school but Ryan still has another week home. I'm sure it will fly by too.
Also, this week we are moving Doris to the higher level of care at Sunrise where she lives. She needs more assistance & care as her Alzheimers continues to progress....it's so hard to watch her fade away.
