Going through the motions

Standard

Things really seem in slow motion for me these last few days. Lots to digest, memories to push away. Mom is probably getting my father’s SS and will have a phone interview for that. My brother in Florida called the funeral home and they were glad to hear from him as no one had contacted them to give them permission to proceed-you can fill in to do what. Is that not so sad? My brother called for more information and got more than he bargained for! But at least it’s taken care of.

So I am trying to do a few things here and there, and mainly to finish up the little zebras’ quilt square that I must get to the quilter of the project by March 15th. I have to finish the second guy’s body and the grass they are in. I think I can do it. I’m a bit disappointed in this cross stitch group that organized the project. I try to drop in there a few times a month and left a message and no one replied to it! I think it’s time to move on. There’s about 10 of them who are really tight and go to IRL reunions, I can’t go to them! I would still be affiliated with Love Quilts and would do 1-2 charity squares a year. I’ve done over 40 in 9 years which is good for me!

I’m going to try and work on some crafts projects to finally sell on etsy. It’s by time! My head is full of ideas, just to get them made and up on the website takes a little doing.

Wish me luck!

  1. My friend went through almost exactly the same thing with her dad. He was estranged from all of her siblings and her, was really mean, etc. Only difference between the two of you was there was eight of them. It was tough when he died for her even though she had not seen him since she was a teen. Hope you and your family are doing alright during this time, lots of cyber people are thinking of all you.

  3. hey Dianne, thinking of you, you have lots to think about, not all of it, maybe not much of it good.
