The Weekend That Was

I hand-sewed the facing on my newest wallhanging 

on Sunday afternoon.

Why is it that I detest doing that?

As much as I enjoy sitting still 

for hand embroidery and knitting,

and machine quilting

(which is far more tedious and time-consuming),

I hate sitting still long enough

to hand-sew the facing on a wallhanging!

Perhaps it's the lack of color and creativity?

Anyway, it is done!

Our daughter and son-in-law invited us to dinner

that evening, and we had a great time.

The grand cherubs were both in great form.

Charlie enjoyed

being swung around by his parents,

while Maggie was having a ball with the challenge

of escaping our presence

and attempting to crawl up the stairs

She looks like she's in jail,

doesn't she?

That morning Charlie had made a 

veggie buddy

using a baking potato,

radishes, a carrot

and green beans.

It was a beautiful day and evening,

with unseasonably cool temperatures

and low humidity.

We spent a lot of time outdoors.

Yesterday afternoon Craig and I once again

 met with my Oncologist.

We scheduled my first Chemo treatment

for tomorrow morning at 10:00.

It conflicts with my weight training class 

at the gym......

which really bumms me out!

But this seems to take precedence, and so we shall proceed.

 I'm accepting any and all good thoughts!

thanks for popping in!

Peace to you!
