back to Ohio

Hello to all,

Well, we are back in Ohio for now. Nita is now in Rose Wood, a care facility, her husband is also in there for now getting stronger we hope. Nita is not doing so great. As cancer progresses she is getting weaker. I cared for her non-stop 24-7 for two weeks, no sleep nor rest as she needed me all the time. As time went on I got so week and clumsy that I fell down the hill (their front yard) and landed on the boardwalk, banged myself up pretty good. As Nita got worst, I could no longer care for her, her husband decided that she should be in a care facility for her own health care, better than what I could do for her. I am afraid that Nita will not be coming back home anymore. Larry does now and then make a day trip and come home on weekends.

When I think that about 4 weeks ago Nita was home and doing her own thing, cancer is not nice!
So we are going back and forth from Ohio to W.V. every now and then getting things taken care of.

I don't know just how often I will be posting on the blog. I will try and keep you all informed.
Prayers are much appreciated now.
thanks,

Hello to all,

I am in W.V. with my sister. I am typing this from my tablet. Nita has been in the hospital, maybe coming home tomorrow. They are trying to get her pain under control. I
Looks like I may be staying here for a while as Nita is weaker now. As some of you may remember she has Pancreas cancer. She is doing as well as she can.
More later as I learn more.

It is not everyday you see a "groundhog"

Morning to all,

It is not every day you see a groundhog in your neighbor's yard. Well, we did, yesterday just a plain as day. Just sitting there watching us, then he ran to hide under the porch we think.

Not every day I see one of those tiny little blue butterflies in your yard either, well anyways, I have not seen one since I was a kid. But, I had one on a clover flower in my backyard. I was delighted to see one, heard stories that they are on the endangered list.

Well we got some cabinets built and installed into our extended kitchen the other day and finally, all the foodstuff that has been in boxes under my sewing table and all over have now got their place to be and my sewing room can become a little more like a sewing room, still have to remove the old carpet and we might just live on the plywood floor and paint it until we are ready to add flooring to the room.

Now to start boxing up all the things in the sewing room, and I just thought to do the other rooms in the house was a mess. I don't know even where to start.

At least before we box everything up will have a chance to get the two quilts done I hope.

I hope all are having a wonderful summer, we are having a few days of less heat and cool evenings, just loving it.

What is everyone doing?

Hello to all,

This note is just to say "hi" and let you know what is in the works coming this fall. I plan to have some group block exchanges, if you are interested, please let me know. ok send me an email to this email address (tundrakid@gmail.com) and let me know what you would like to work on.

Today it is raining and humidified bad outside, so I decided to clean the house and mop the floors, I do love the way the cleaning solution makes the house smell when done.  

I want to find out just how many want to work along with us on this. We do have a very small group so there is no huge amount of blocks that will have to be done. I hope this helps everyone make a decision on this.

You can also post a message to this post in the blog, just click on the word "no comment" and it will open where you can post a message. IF the message box does not appear for you. Any problems just let me know.

Thanks,
Margo
