Well, I am really pleased, and oh so proud. I have just finished a special Christmas Quilt for my grandaughter for Christmas. I have wanted to make Elisa a quilt for so long, but seemed impossible.
You see, before I got HD, I enjoyed sewing a lot, but after HD, it was difficult to even remember how to sew. And so, I have put in a lot of extra effort just to try and do this for my grandaughter, and I am sure she is going to love it.
The quilt is a gift for my grandaughter, but it really is a gift for me, for me to be able to sew again, it’s a wonderful feeling. I do’t know how long this good spell will last, but for now, this is one dream come true.
Merry Christmas everyone!
Dec 23/06 Christmas at my Aunty’s
This year Christmas was very special. My Aunty invited the whole family to her home for a Christmas visit. It was the first year in many years that my Mom and all her brothers and sisters were together, and that was very nice. But it was even more special, because I got to see my Aunty’s and Uncles. My Aunty Eileen is very special to me, she is the best, the very best. And she has a wonderful attitude about life, a wonderful optimism. She is one of those people that, if she is handed a bunch of lemons, she does not say, oh those damn lemons, they ruined my day! lol No, instead she says, oh lemons, let’s have some lemonade. Her wine glass is never half empty, it is always half full, and her love of life is very contagious. My Aunty’s and Uncles are all very special people to me, it was a wonderful visit.
We will go to Dan’s Mom and Dad’s on Christmas day, and that will be very nice too. And then we will go home, and I will get to sleep and sleep and sleep…..perfect ending to a good day…..lol….. Hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas!
