I did some crafting this weekend

I started working on this disappearing nine patch sometime ago. I have been doing some embroidery on a panel for the top. I finely got that part done and am putting the borders on it. Will show more picture tomorrow. Too tired to take pictures tonight. I'm just happy I got a little done on it. When I work on something for a long time I get tired of it and have to make myself finish it.

Goodbye to Casey

I had to say goodbye to Casey. She is my daughter Christina's dog. It was really hard. As you can tell I love dogs. Most of the time I love dogs more than people. Casey has just got to be too much for Christina with the new lifestyle ( new husband, new baby lots of new pressures). Christina just feels that Casey isn't getting enough quality time. But, Casey has been a big part of our lives for a very long time. She can be quite a pest. But I love her anyway and will miss her very much. It's not hard to see her going to a new home it's hard knowing I won't see her again of know how she is. She has been a part of my family for a long time. I love you Casey I hope you will be happy and have a good life.

Dogs and sleeping in

This is my Dal that I inherited from my son. I love her but she just has this thing about letting me sleep in one day a week. Friday's are the only day I usually sleep in a little and she just can't stand it. As soon as the sun is up she wants up. She starts crying and pacing. Comes over to the bed to look at me to see if my eyes are open. She does this every couple of minutes until I get up. It's a good thing I love her because I just want to kick her to the curb right now. It's been a busy summer not much time for crafting. I've done a little here and there but, not much. Will post a few things this weekend.

calm after the storm

This is a beautiful sunset after a stormy afternoon. My son and I watched the clouds today as they were trying to form funnel clouds. We don't have tornadoes in this part of the country very often but it was sure trying this afternoon. Fun to watch just glad it didn't come to fruition.

My favorite Barn

Here is my favorite barn from when Christina (p://www.sometimescrafter.blogspot.com/) went out last Friday. We both love taking picture of old barns. This one is getting close to falling down I will miss it. It has stood on that spot for more years than I've been around. It is sad to see it in such bad shape. But it does make a nice photo.

This is two of the loves of my life

Yes, these are two of the loves of my life. They both bring me great joy. I love every minute I spend with them and I thank God for them everyday.
