Hello Ladies,
It's been a while since I've been here. I came back last week and there weren't many new posts. I thought b/c it was the weekend. Now, a week later, still not much action here.
So where is everyone? What have you been up to?
I've been busy with life.
I'm still working midnights, just happy to have a full-time job. Am way beyond complaining about the hours and what it's doing to the rest of my life. B/c I'm working midnights, things are harder to get done during normal business hours. I will never take a day job for granted again.
DH's doctor told him he's on the verge of kidney failure. So we've been working hard on stopping it from getting worse. Mainly he's being very careful with his diabetes. Unfortunately, that means I actually have to cook healthy meals and he has to eat at regular time. Not always the easiest. I've given him the assignment of finding recipes that he'd like me to try b/c it's hard finding things he wants to try to eat. It's gotten a little easier, he gives me a dozen recipes and I see what ingredients we have and go from there. We have found new favorites, and I'm always thankful for that.
My Friendship Afghan Project has come to the stage where I'm waiting for everyone to send out the rest of the squares. We had a good turn out so far, we had 17 in the project and there's only 5 left to send out squares. The final day to mail them out is the 15th, so that's good. This project turned out being way bigger and taking up much more time that I ever thought. I had been thinking about starting another one in January, but I don't know ...
Because of the first Friendship Afghan Project I was in, I made a new best friend, KBK. We write each other snail mail, she lives in the country where internet access is hard to get. I completely understand that, if I were still living at home, it would be the same way. They only got internet last year. Anyway, we write each other and I've found the older sister and best friend I never had.
KBK is a writer and she's gotten me re-interested in writing my story again. I've been having a hard time finding time to work on it. It takes a while for me to get into the mid set and write.
So what is every one up to? What's new?
Can't wait to hear from you!
