She had her post-surgery doctor
visit on Thursday and her staples were removed and she graduated from lifting
10 pounds to 25 pounds. She started
driving that day and we took walks with Bones that afternoon and on
Friday. She moved back into her
apartment Friday night. I figure she
will still get tired easily for a couple more weeks but otherwise, she is “just
like new”.
It has been REALLY cold all week and Steve has been
fighting a cold (as well as the cold) so bike-riding has been put on hold for
now. We have managed to walk the dogs
each day – much to their delight. But, for
the most part, they have been content to hunker down with their humans in the
warm house.
It is a good thing I have projects to do to make the
bleak months of January and February go faster.
I finally finished a project I started last year – my wool felting
attempt. Here are the little purses I
made from the felt that has been sitting at the bottom of my project basked for
months! I started them while watching
grandkids last week and finished last night.
You can’t see but they have a zipper on top and a lining inside. My sister, Juli, gave me a similar felt purse
a few years ago that I used as a pattern.
I got the cute owl and dog appliques from a friend who was purging some
of her scrap-booking supplies.
Laura Jost, our stake humanitarian project coordinator,
has sent me home with a bunch of quilting projects that should keep me busy for
a few weeks, at least. And, my pottery
class continues – I glazed six pots yesterday.
Can’t wait to see how they turn out!
I am going to attempt to make a plate next time - and a few more large bowls. Maybe even a pitcher!
Our ward had a Valentine breakfast yesterday morning. We were all supposed to come in our pajamas. Well, most of the adults did NOT come so dressed. I felt a little awkward in my lamb p.j.'s Here is Melanie in her matching pair along with Elise giving me the stink-eye
We shared a table with the Davis family. Violet, in the middle, is the one I had lunch with a few weeks back.
Love and Hugs to all on this Valentine's Day.....
