Quilts in my home!!

These are small quilts hanging in my entry way at my home.  I say quilts are not just for keeping warm but for imparting warmth too.  I love the little wooden quilt hangers.  I purchases them during an Oklahoma Quilt Shop Hop.

Food for Body and Soul Quilt

Hello all, here are my two quilts that I entered in Judy Howard's - "Food for Body and Soul Quilt" contest.  I love adding stuff to quilts and I'm addicted to eye lash yarn - probably cuz it covers up my mistakes and looks good.  Shhh - just our little secrete.

Creative Big - Little quilt



Hello cosmos, so I'm going to try to blog more than ~~ never!!  So here we go....  I've been creating some small quilts.  So I can be creative, but not expend too much brian power - or money.  My parents are taking more time and energy, but I have to have a creative outlet.  So here is the small quilt I've ever seen.  I created this at a January quilt retreat at Camp Canyon.  I used very small yo yos - and had a great time making it.  It was time well spent.

What is Alzheimer's - and what it is doing to me!!

I haven't been a steady blogger - and I always thought blogs were to be happy.  But I'm am dealing with 82 year old parents with various forms of dementia, home care, doctors, and all that comes with our aging society.  Here is a nice website to find info on Alzheimer's called - A Place for Mom - http://alzheimers.aplaceformom.com/

I once had a goal to put something on my daily blog about finding joy - which I personally have a hard time finding in a day - but it was going to be a quest for me.  Now, I don't have time to look for joy.  In fact I've already talked to my Dad twice today about all the newly installed reminder gadgets around the house - and I haven't even got to take my own pills.  I can't even find the two pills I got out to take - they are lost somewhere in my house!!  So rather than my quest to find joy in my life - my quest today will be to find those two pills that I set out to take earlier this morning.
