my baby girls quilt i made her

she

this is my baby girls quilt i made for her bday and this is how i feel right now she of course loves it, next i am going to make myself a americana quilt, should be pretty night all hugs tio you an d peace out

sometimes i wonder why i get up in the morning



you see this face, thats what the stinker did to me tonight, i let him out of his pen as usual for his nightly run before i put him to bed. now i have NEVER had any trouble with him trying to get out of the yard, but tonight of all nights when i feel like crud, this little butthead decided to go next door and make me come after him. i asked son to just step over the gate as he is tall enough to do it but noooooooooooooooooo, not him, thats not right he says. soooo i ended up having to climg over the fence and go and get him. do you think he would come to me, um nope he just runs from me all the while i feel like i am having a heart attack from trying to catch him

he on the other hand thinks is funny, damn cat. so now on top of my rotten day i had this happened. now my back feels like someone is beating me with a whip with pieces of sharp metal and glass biting into me, sort of like the cat-o-nine whips the pirates use to use way back in pirate time. i don't think thats the correct name for them and if someone knows it feel free to correct me.


on the good side today i did a good deed. cost me a blinking fortune though , but i sent a big box of yarn to someone who said that they would make some lovie blankets for Ro's(see crochetville.org for that)childrens charity. since i don't have time to make blankets i asked if it was alright to just send yarn to someone who promised that she would make the blankets with the yarn. works for me. am still puttin the ghans together and since i doubt iwill be able to walk tomorrow i might actually get richards ghan done and start on sherries. i know i have a few more squares coming and i will use them all and what ever i don;t will pass them forward to another comforghan(but i think i will be able to use them all, a few i have had to add some squares to make them the 8 in and i have a few which are 10 and a couple which are 12 in so will work somehow around those squares as well as they were made with love and care also so i will make sure they get used

today it rained was a sucky day, now just a few min ago itsy was crying at the door so thought maybe the poor little one was hungry so i moved one of the plates which was empty and set it on the other plates, sure as hell the stupid things fell ALLLLLLLLLLLLLL over the floor, so now with my back killing me i am standing there picking them up all the while my son is giving me crap about it and i wanted to scream at him to shut the hell up, in fact i did finally cause he pissed me off so bad finally got the food picked up and gave itsy a treat then baby wanted one and then coast, so gave them all one and the only one who would eat was baby. itsy finally did but she was more on alert, so must be something out there although could hear thepeople behind us in the apartments. gosh i need a vacation i sooooo need a vacation, all by myself. maybe at the beach i could use it believe me.

so back to my day , now after finding out about uncle ron i saw my cousin today at the bank and asked her how come no one called me, she said her mom was having a hard time dealing with everything, i know i said but still what wouldit take 2 min? anyways then she tells me that her stepdad(my uncle terry) is in baddd shape. he is in congestive heart failure and is carrying over 20 pounds of extra water weight, i said i am really sorry and would pray for him,


so now i am feeling like 2 cents cause i went in mad and came out looking like a bitch which was not my intenion. life sucks today so my question now is whats next. lets see there is 1 hour 27min left in the day what more can i do bewahahahahahahahahahahaa.

a special thanks to my dear friend fran for letting me rant tonight, without you dear friend i would not have made it thru tonight. i wish i knew what to do for shadow. its soooo not fair for the poor little guy to live in a 10x10x6 foot kennel he deserves better, but how do i giv him up, i love that little guy more than life itself, then later i went out to see him he is tender and loving towards me. purring and giving me kisses made me feel much better. for sure. anyways thats how my crappy day went. tomorrow will be another day hopefully better than today and tonight. thanks for reading and listening to me whine. sometimes we just need it i think. this is my baby for all he i drives me nuts i love him dearly god bless and good night ya all

god rest your soul uncle ron

hi ya all, sorry been so darn long, life has been busy but not so kind. oh today sucked this morning part anywys, hubby was reading the paper this morning and said hey don'tyou knowsomone (names name then) and i said yea is my uncle why? he was a little shocked at that and said just wondering, cause there is this guy in the obits, i wondered and thought to myself, how odd someone has the same name as my uncle, so asked can i see that section? he hands it to me and i look at the obit and am just start shaking cause it was my uncle. not one single person in my family bothered to tell me, not one single person, i really am pissed off about this. oh and another thing, no one even told me how bad he was, i knew he was battling lung cancer but everytime i asked one of the aunts for his phone number they didn't have time to tell me, was like i was written out of his life completely. i know he as heartbroken when my aunt carol died and it really does not suprise me that he went as fast as he did. so uncle ron, godspeed to you, rip i will always remember you for your silly grin and the fact you always said i was to skinny and needed to eat your wonderful meals you made. i wish i could have had one more serving of your potato salad but it isn't to be, when i eat potato salad i shall think of you, when i make lasagna i will remember what you said, just s splash of vanilla, to the sauce and it makes it just right. (hey he was italian too and knew what he was talking about) when we meet again in way up yonder uncle i will be waiting for that potato salad and lasagna. love you dear uncle i bid you adeu' p.s nance also says she loves you and god bless

hi from a bad bad blogger. me ... hehe

been a few days well 5 exactly since i posted last, i am truly sorry and will try and post more often

been super busy trying to get some squares together to make hubbys cousin and wife comfortghans, they are in great need of some tlc, see this is the reason, first off richard is a member of the striker bridage stationed here at ft lewis washington, he was sent to iraq last year and recently was injured by a road side bomb, he suffered some pretty severe injuries, he has had all several surgeries so far to try and repair the damage, his front teeth were knocked out, his nose is broken in 3 places, has already had 2 surgeriers for that, his jaw is also wired shut as it broke his jaw as well as numerous cuts abd bruises.
well my friends who i can count on any day of the week are all pitching in and making squares for a comfortghan for both of them . initially i was had asked for squares for him, but one of our members at the ville asked what i thought about making one for his wife, who i can tell you will appreciate it as much if not more than richard will. both are in their mids 20's with no kids, recently married just before he shipped out last year so will let ya all know how thats coming.when i get the squares will put them together and post pics. which brings me to another story, recently on crochetville we had a member who was having some really bad times and was brave enough to tell us about what had happened and how she is dealing wih it all. so after concurring with several people (i posted for all to see) who wanted to help i recieved many many squares and put them together and yesterday she recieved the package and she loves it.paulette honey i am so happy you like it without everyone i could not have put it together.

now i also am working on a special present for my dd's b-day which is this week. she is into different things and this year is into skulls as a focus point, now before ya all get all wacked out, its the IN thing right now, not scaty gross nasty ones, but silly ones like the day of the dead printsvery expressive and actually i find it interesting.

well about feb i decided was going to make her a quilt out of differnt skull material, seriously i can tell you it was a adventure finding it all and without my dear friend fran in texas i would not have half of it, (i payed her of course)

i have been slowly gathering more and more kinds, not just a tiny bit eiher but several yards, well i finally got the 12 in sq cut and tonight sewed the top piece together. then tomorrow will figure out what i am going to use for the back piece. actually what i am contemplating is making an entire piece of different backing using the same materials but in different orders , what do you all think? think that would be cool? i actually made it a bit big so it will be hard to match to material so maybe thats what i will do, it only took me about a hour to sew the top piece, so i figure another hour and a half maybe it will look mega coolbeans hehe i just made the mega thing up and got the coolbeans off my friend fiona , mubbles you see that? you taught me that , lol i say it all the time now.

anyways when this quilt is done completely putting it together after her bday will post a pic.so far i have counted 17 different kinds of material and alot of it i have left so decided that i am going to make some tote bags for sale, anyone like that idea? if those sell or some of the other ones i make do maybe it would bring me some well needed income. dd seems to like the idea and she knows what kinds stuff sells , that though is in the future
and shall see if if it works

well am off to bed as i am just beat and need to be up early tomorrow as i know its the day before easter and lots to do, besides which we are celebrating her b-day with her grandparents on sunday too . so goodnight to all of you. god bless and keep you, in his loving care , be kind to one another and be good to someone you don't know.open a door, give them a place in line, anything to make their day a bit brighter, love ya all my friend happy easter to you all hugs
