Happy Valentine's Day/Update On Grace

 

Are you having a beautiful Valentine's day? Stores & restaurants will be packed out for sure , I was planning on seeing a movie with my niece but those plans changed,my Grace🐕 had to go to the vet yesterday,her spine has flarred up again causing chronic pain

The pain doesn't allow her to jump so she's missing her snuggle time with me ,as the meds started kicking in last night,she started crying & shaking, when Id get near her she'd become at ease,so I camped out with her,as long as she could feel me near her she rested better,she slept good & sound till around 1am,I coxed her to go outside & she curled back up & went back to sleep,at this point she was content to let me sleep on the couch as long as she could see me

30 days of antibiotics, pain meds & steroids,on a sewing note the blue flimsy is almost ready for a reveal,I found the sweetest light blue checkered sheet set for the backing

Cant Believe I'm 70🤣

 My niece went all out for my birthday,friends & family  showing their love 💕 

the cake was glorious! my wedding cake didn't even hold a candle to it lol 

I finally got old enough to get a money tree 🤣 this is a tradition my sister & me started with mom & dad when they turned 70 & 70th anniversary ,I think I counted a little over $50 on my tree lol

from Beginning to End Of Our Life Together

 

We started our journey together way back in 74 ,just babies as people would say,young,full of life,not knowing. that the journey would end 42 yrs later, Terry would say he plucked me right outta my daddys lap 😄 through the yrs. we seen good times,hard times even hardships but God never left out side & he is as good to me now as he was then, of all the blessings,all the miracles through the yrs. spite the hardships that 2106 brought I'd say it was the absolute best of 42 yrs. Terry was diagnosed with prostate cancer ,which later radiation  sparked leukemia 2 weeks after we signed papers to the house on the lake,but God showed up bigger than ever allowing us to enjoy all our 1st's in our new home,we haven't even moved in yet but had Easter in that big ole back yard, family fished off the pier,we laughed wondering what the neighbors thought gathering at an empty house,March of 2015 was the beginning of celebrating our 1st's in our new home,every holiday,every birthday, anniversaries of everyone,on Feb.10 of 2016 our 1st's had come full circle,at 4:30 am,he woke but too weak to open his eyes whispered" have I told you lately that I luv you"  & with his last breath told me he luved me & happy birthday , today I am 70 yrs old ,a long ways from that young "skinny" little 19 yr.old girl, Gods word says we're promised 70 yrs & if we live beyond that then we are truly blessed, Terry's grandmother called it borrowed time, I'm not sure where this new season in my life will take me but one thing for sure I know that whatever the journey,God is good all the time & all the time God is good!

The Perfect Backing

 On the way home from church Sunday I stopped by the Goodwill store & found a blue check set of unopened sheets

A good find for $10,I think they will  complement the colors & make for the perfect backing for the blue flimsy  once the bordes are added

Then I shall quilt on! 🤣
