I guess life is about letting go.. I am a collecter of stuff. Maybe not as bad as some and not as clutter free as others.. I have been pitching stuff for 4 years now. Saying stuff like.. "If I die tomorrow, what a mess to clean up." My son's reply is we will get a dumpster and pitch for you.. Wish they could give me a moment now and then to move some furniture out of here.. IT's all too much at this point.
Felt like I didn't get much done this week.. But did pitch the old broken gas grill. My DH doesn't even know it's gone.. What a hoot that will be. It's been sitting on our porch rusting for a year.. The inside had so much grease in it that the defector plate rusted way under the weigh of the grease. Now I ask you.. Would you eat anything grilled on that mess. I think not.. I also found a colony of black widow spiders living happily in the corner of the porch.. So I'm approaching that corner carefully.. I will go to Ace Hardware and see what kind of bug spray they have that may help..

As for quilting I first felt I didn't do much .. But, I did make 15 bowtie blocks for my Thursday night quilting club and 12 finished quilted blocks for a donation quilt for a 42 year old woman in a local nursing home.. Who's husband happens to also be divorcing her.. And this week her 15 year old daughter ran away from home.. There sure is a lady who needs some help... Some of the gals have started visiting her and one even took her out for lunch.. God is good in his way.. Making us all grow in giving to her.. So maybe I did do something this week..

I've decide I have a sinus infection and started taking some left over antibiotics til I can get in to see Doctor or nurse practicianer on Monday.. Had headaches, pain under my right eye, hot and cold and no energy..

Sophie has been dx with heart failure.. Doing laxis and bp pill. Mild improvement.. had to know what to do for her. Just try to keep her pain free as possible at this point...
Guess, I go was some floors and get my husband out of the great room so I can wash that floor too.. Then collapse for the rest of the day..

My Fortune Cookie had an interesting verse..."Find a peaceful place where you can make plans for the future.. " I have to think about that.. Today must be a day for thinking... Thanks Chris..

I've had the glucoma surgery and rechecks and yesterday.. Dr Ho...says okay..now on to cataract surgery when you are ready.. We don't have to wait til you are totally blind... can't correct you any better than 20/40 with glasses.. With surgery you'll be 20/20... I don't know what to do today.. Will think about this.. So do I get a new pair of glasses till I do surgery.. Geoff is afraid this surgery will cost him too much money ..so he says put it off.. I will wait a few days before I get new lenses.. or schedule surgery..

It makes me depressed..
But one quilt club meets today.. We were to help the library make table clothes..Oops they were supposed to be 9 feet long but the ones I got to hem were only 8 feet long to start with.. We'll see..


Right now I want to pack up all my quilting projects and put them in a box and not do anything.. Just one of those quilting days I guess..

I'm feeding my neighbor's cat. He daugther was supposed to feed CAT.. But, it was looking pretty ragged...I decide to intervene because her neighbor across from her house was screaming at the cat in his yard. He has shot a couple of his dogs the past couple of months since his wife passed on. I was concerned for what he might do to CAT..We are all kind of causious of this guy.. He's on a short string.. CAT waits for me each morning diving into the new bowl of food.. Neighbor went to Germany for 6 weeks.. She is kind of spacey... Has has 2 strokes and a heart attack and wanted to see her sister and 100 plus mother.. So I can understand.. She thought her daughter was responsible.. NOT.
This cat is part siamises.. Stays right around her house even with the neigbors geese and ducks wandering around her yard..LIfe sure is crazy...
