GREETINGS
HAPPY AND HEALTHY NE YEAR. May this New Year bring you joy and happiness.
With immune system difficulties I am sick again and slowly recovering. I did get over a nasty cold which I had over the holidays. My resolution this year is to keep my immune system in top shape . We are getting the coldest weather of the year tomorrow. I have enjoyed this long spurt of warmish weather. Got so many more things done outside this winter.
REPAIRING A QUILT
My Grandmother was a seamstress I am not, but I do love to sew. My friend Fran and I are so grateful to our Mom’s for teaching us that skill. I started helping my Mom treadeling the machine while she sewed I was around 5 at the time. She made all my dance recital costumes, slip covers and clothes.
I made this quilt in the late 70’s and now its in dire need of repair. It was made in pieces and I would sit in front of the fireplace on cold winter nights sewing. Most of the fabrics are from old clothing. The red and white leaf is from a maternity dress I had made.
COSMO AND CHANGE
I am getting to know Cosmo in many different ways. I realize change upsets him immensely. The holiday week that Chris was here Chris slept in my upstairs bedroom. Cosmo got sick and he is fine now. This has happened when things changed before. His life has been full of change last but not least an eye operation and moving here. I will try to keep things constant for him.
Chris was a big help , bringing in the grain is a big task that I didn’t have to do last week Yea.
SEED CATALOGS
The seed catalogs have been arriving since before Christmas. Wonderful to look at and plan
Hope you have a wonderful day and many thanks for reading my log. Carole
