What have I been doing.

Look what came in the mail yesterday. Three workbasket from Teresa Fox and I won one of Diane Shuttles. Thanks two both I love them. I have been tatting but it all needs to be blocked and on some the ends need worked in.

I am still around. First there was getting everything put just in my name. That is after I got my self alive again. They had me dead instead of him. So they canceled my SS, my insurance ect. Which I had to make a trip to the SS office to get myself back to the living.

I have been trying to catch up on the last two and a half years work. I have been painting, had the rest of the drive replaced, and then there is all of the little repairs that had to be done. I do most of them. Also have cleaned and caulked a dozen windows and still have at least three more to do.

Then there is all of the yard work. I have been pulling weed everyday when it is not to hot to be out or raining. I have more then one flower bed, One is very large, today it is in the 90 with a heat index of 100. And it is going to be hotter then that for almost all of next week.

I have also put in about 30 years of genealogy. Which was started before all of us had computers. Think of a stack of papers about three and a half feet tall. I only have a few pages left to do. All of it goes in the recycle ben. Enough of that.

I am going to try and post more often.

Look What I Found

I was cleaning out a some old things that had belonged to my husband mother that I just put away and never got back too. When I put this away I never even looked into it till the other day. I figured it had old letter or card that belonged his his grandmother. Look at what was in the box.

A tatting book and two shuttles which had to belong to his grandmother because his mother did any kind of craft at all.

Then there are some patterns that she had cut out .

More patterns she had in the box.

Good News for A Change

The funeral was today but we also got a new Great Granddaughter today Jaden Beth Ann Bennett. Going to go and do some tatting.

No tatting to show

Update on DH I have not had much time to tat. DH is staying at the VA i the COC unit. So I am not at home much. None of the cancer treatments are working. I also have been trying to keep up with everything around here. I now do all of the yard work and bills. I do get to take a look at most of the tatting blogs, then off again to get some work done. That all for now off again for a while.
