November finally arrived which means that the holidays are now coming full steam ahead!
Back to work today so I have time to take a couple of minutes to catch up on the blog. That's what 15 minute breaks are for correct? :)
I had a pretty good weekend. Mom was pretty coherent so we had a good visit and she ate all her biscuits and gravy. That is one of the things that we are working on...trying to get her to eat more food. She didn't complain about much so it was a very enjoyable visit. I also heard that my brother Kerm was able to get out over the weekend to spend some time with his family and might be able to go back home around the middle of the month. It's been three months now since his surgery and he is finally walking with a cane and can go up steps.
I was also able to have a delightful chat with a friend while he drove home from visiting friends and inbetween that I even got some quilting done. This candle mat seems to be a little popular but I'm not sure if I'll make it again.
After I did the candle mat I found another pattern for a candle mat. I had material for the second one also so I fused it and will hand applique stitches to keep it on. After putting it on the material, I think this would make a nice little wall hanging. If nothing else, perhaps for mom since a lot of wall hangings are too big for her wall in her room. Of course her not having enough room is because she has a lot of things up on her wall. LOL.
This week should be pretty good weather wise. In the 50s during the day and low 30s at night. I woke up to 30 degrees F and had to scrape windows before going to work but was hard to scrape. It might help a little bit when we change time on the 7th. Not sure yet on that.
Time to get back to work. :)
This will be the place where I chat about my life. Most of the time it will be about my crafts like quilting or cross stitch but it will also be about my gaming and family life.
