Yesterday I took DSis to have the first of multiple procedures to have her nose rebuilt. I won't go into the whole story but the operating rooms got backed up & the surgery that was supposed to take place at noon didn't start till 6:00PM. They did keep her overnight last night since it was so late. Her nurses weren't very good once she was in her room. I am not a happy camper. We did get her home today at about 11:00am.
Hi Just checking in. Today I was able to finish unpacking from retreat. Here is what I worked on...arrow quilts. I got 22 of these 24 arrows finished at retreat. I also got 10 for the other arrow quilt in another color way done at retreat too.
As much as I wanted to continue working on arrows I had to take a break to make a quilt for a wedding gift. I was able to find fabrics in my stash and am doing a D9P. I got fabrics cut and hope to get the blocks done tomorrow.
Hope all are having a good weekend.

Life marches forward, time doesn't stop. It seems forever ago since my boys left. It's a heartbreaking moment when they go. Yes, it's a proud moment too, when they are independent and their own person, starting their own adult life... but... it's a sad time too. The family is different. There is an empty place at the table. There is an empty bed. There is a silence where there used to be a voice. Don't you remember leaving home? But, gosh, our mothers must have been missing us.

I was sad when my only son moved out but within a month his room became my Bat Cave! He even asked if I missed him at all--of course I did but I needed the space LOL.
Today is MrJan & my 46th wedding anniversary; not a landmark like QNS but still proud that we made it this far. Special plans: I'll be sewing and he'll be stripping more wood trim out in the garage.
Have a great day ladies, do something you love. After snowing all day yesterday the sun is shining and I think Spring is finally coming to western PA.

Our oldest moved out last summer...we thought she needed to stay home a little longer (she graduated early and wasn't 18 yet), but she's always been independent and thought that was best...it was hard, but is getting easier. Youngest DD loves having a room to herself.
Congrats Jan and MrJan, 46 years is a great milestone too!! Enjoy your day.

46 years is a great # also Jan! Each year is a milestone now days. Congratulations!
#1DSon was my easy one to let go. DD was the first & we really cried a lot. My feelings were so mixed up w/#1DSon. He had gone to collage but was trying to donate his kidney to a cousin of one of his DF's. As that was approching & had to just give him to God. I then had peace. Then the transplant didn't go through & he decided to go to the Fireman Academy. That meant he came back home in Jan. I felt that I had given him away & I didn't want him to come back! Actually he & I butted heads so much it wasn't even funny. When he got his apartment the next fall I was relieved! He & I get along great now.
