Great little quilt, Bertie!
Sending hugs to everyone who needs one.
Today is better. I am just so devastated for my son who just can't seem to get a job. And his new wife is more than a little crabby about it. To round things out the car he got to replace the one he lost in the flood seems to have more problems than was immediately apparent -- like needing a catalytic converter -- and he can't get it inspected without it. And as he was leaving here yesterday after helping me with sewing for hours he found he had a flat tire. Add to that the seemingly impossible mountain of paperwork and bureaucracy to get back home ... and, well, I was in an extremely poopy mood. But today is a good one. I am just putting one step in front of the other and running the dogs out in between monsoons. Hubby is working until midnight so I think I will stroll across the street and get some Chinese food for dinner! No cooking, no dish washing.

Enjoy your glorious morning.

Yup. A good chuckle. Actually, with all things considered, life is good. I do not live in a country where bombs are whizzing overhead or people are chopping off your arms or the neighborhood makes you radioactive. I have a comfy bed, food to eat, fabric to play with, a mannequin to chat with (although she doesn't have much to say in reply) ... so what more could I possibly need?
I'm happily quilting my partner's little quilt. Then the binding will go on and into the wash it goes - with color catchers! Wheeeeeee!

Some sad news this morning for our family and a request for prayers. My daughter, that came home to the USA this week from serving as a missionary in Africa for a year, is in the hospital with malaria. She has a 2 month old baby boy. They are in Texas and with her husband's family. Her mother in law is taking care of the baby now. She had been nursing the baby up till now. Please for those that pray to hold them in prayers. Also they were in between insurances so that is an added worry. I am feeling so sad and helpless right now.
