There is a pretty important birthday in our family today..
My sweet aunt is 97 today. She walks right along no cane,no walker.
She has been tucked away in her home so I have not seen her in awhile but I have called her and sent her pop up cards, she just loves them. When I was growing up I was the oldest of 4 kids, and there was not a lot of money to go around. She was very good to me, bought my first barbie doll and paid for an art class for me and the list would go on and on. She has my heart for sure. She is my mother's oldest sister. (my mom passed 12 year ago) She sits and crochets her day away.
I was up and out very early this morning to pick up the few groceries we needed. I decided to pick up a few tulips to brighten up the kitchen.
Sat morning we had a couple of inches of snow and then the rain came! Lots of rain! The snow soaked up all the rain and weighted a ton! We lost this large limb off a white pine.
Luckily it fell just right didn't take any wires with it and it was on the edge of our property so it didn't hit any buildings but did take out a few small trees on the way down.
So it will stay there until spring and then it will get cleaned up.
Husband has been working so hard on my rug hooking room.
The wall of cork is up! and we found out we have enough to do the wall showing on the right. It is a small space since the closet doors are there. But more display room!
The floor is in!
And a couple of the built ins are in!
I am so excited there is still work to do before I can move in.
But it is looking great!
I have started a new pattern Herb Angle by Lori Brechlin .
I am enjoying this rug so much. The details have been fun.
I have got to stay off the computer I keep ordering patterns I have another one on the way. A big stretch for me we shall see!
We are tucked in and watching football (yes I love it) come on Saints!
***
Husband and I have both had our first vaccine no issues at all.
and we have an appointment for our second one in Feb.
I am anxious to get on with our life. I know we will have still have to be careful, but the fear we have had about my husband getting this will hopefully subside.
Have a wonderful healthy week!
