So here I am back to the inevitable! Yes work,work,work,does it ever end? I guess sometime,some people seem to accomplish so much,others dawdle over little,yet we will all likely meet the same maker! how important each is we won't know till then! Each day while on my trip seemed so short,my family lives in a radius of about 75 miles! I felt so at home there even though I was on the road a great deal of time! I got to take my mom to some shops she likes,Mothers Day dinner at my sisters' was fun,with everyone there,I made a Strawberry Rhubarb Pie for my sis which I will post the recipe,no shopping though for me!! How awful!! Oh well,a mall is a mall is a mall right? don't they all have the same things? Syd came through his surgery and is recovering at home with the love of his "mom"!! My daughter is running more than ever getting in shape for a marathon!!?? The hospital survived without me!! How surprising! The weeds in my garden also thrived without me to tear them from their task!! My cats are very happy to have me back,Katy my sleeping girl wakes me at the usual early hours,she doesn't know which days I work and which I'm off!! Try to catch up and post more often,get some recipes and sewing projects on here!!
He is here ,at least for a night or two just a reprieve until the surgery can be scheduled ! He lay around in his favorite spots,played with some yarn I was rolling and took a nap with his "MOM" who was very tired from all the stress!! His little paws are shaved bare where the IV was inserted,and his neck sore where he had his blood drawn. We will keep track of his story as it unfolds here at Sew Nana ! thanks for reading!!
I know it's late here just had to let everyone know what Delilah aka Jen got for her birthday! The big gift,from the husband is a brand new sewing machine!!! What is so special you ask? This machine is one of a line of wonderful machines made by "Bernina".The reaction from Jen was maybe not one of absolute JOY !! Rather one of HELP !!! I will admit they can look intimidating to the naked eye,a few lessons should help get her going in the right direction. I do hope she will JUMP IN and get her feet wet !! She has struggled along for so many years on my verrry oldest one alive *** There is no end to the creations she may come up with,this machine will nicely "expand" to an embroidery capability when she is ready.Until then I wish her many hours of blissful sewing, there is no sweeter sound than that of a Bernina as it stitches along,the purr of the perfect straight stitch,the curling ,winding, flow of over 100 decorative stitches 2 alphabets and several neatly perfected buttonholes will last a lifetime and be passed down ,as my old 1230 will be someday,perhaps to my grandaughter? Until then Jen will present her followers with many wonderful works of textile art !! Love and enjoy this wonderful present Jen,I wish I could be there to experience firsthand your progress!!
Leave it to a sick kitty! Our Syd made his trip to the animal hospital where he is now,and will hopefully come home on Saturday.He must have his urinary catheter removed first and be able to urinate on his own.What is amazing is that family ,previously not close have united in their love of our family pet choice,our cats!! Amazing,and wonderful,and hopeful for us all,we still need to get through the surgery which we hope will take place next week,the surgeon is very reassuring that this is a treatable condition,although we are not telling Syd that HE will for all purposes look like a "girl" but only from the outside! His heart will remain his moms' little "boy" and he will continue to strut his manliness around the house,his little sister Molly will not be told!! So no such teasing will go on here!!! Until our update tomorrow I will enlist your prayers for our "boy" and send our pet prayers to everyone in need also, love nana
