Thanks Barb.  We are so excited.  We are so thrilled that she has met such a nice guy.  He has a great job, very ambitious and very kind.

Janet, congratulations on the engagement!

Sheila, Yazi is adorable! I know what you mean about sickness. My kids had more than their share when they were younger - all they had to do was go back to school!

She is just adorable Sheila.  They are definitely little germ factories though.  

Jannaka & Dustin came over & showed us her ring.  It is lovely.  They are talking about getting married in July.  She wanted to get married on her dad's 70th birthday, but that falls on a Tuesday so I'm going to suggest they get married the Saturday after which is the 25th.

That's FABULOUS News, Janet! I know you've been very concerned about her and the boys for quite a while. Hopefully, this will be the start of something great for her!

Well, round 4 of the 2020 "Year of Sickness" is upon me. Yes, I can't get past it all. Yazi was up over the weekend with a runny nose and now I'm living with a stuffed up one. I have long said that I am the perfect candidate for a hibernation study...

A friend of mine in Wichita made this poncho for Yazi. Now she can be her own "uncorn"...

My daughter got engaged last night & Larry & I are over the moon about it.  We just love the guy she is with now.  He came over Thurs night & asked our blessing to ask her to marry him.  The ring he gave her is absolutely gorgeous although we have only seen a picture of it so far.  She is coming over on her lunch hour today to show it to us in person.  It is a round diamond surrounded by smaller diamonds that makes it look like a star.  He even asked her boys for their blessing which they very happily gave.  Not sure when the wedding will take place, but she said maybe in July.  After having some real duds in her life, it makes my heart feel good to see her be with a really good man now.  He works hard and takes good care of her plus he & her boys have a great friendship.

I finished making the Chiefs pillow yesterday.  I found the fabric at Joanns and it was awful to work with.  Very off grain & very stiff.  I would never use it to make a quilt out of that is for sure!  The retail price was $12.99 per yard, but they had it "on sale" for $9.99.  My friend Lynn said they probably jacked up the price after the Chiefs won the Super Bowl.

Cute designs, Janet & Barbara!

Sheila, it sounds like you are feeling somewhat better.  Enjoy the trip to the train show.  Yazi sounds adorable but a handful at the same time.  

I plan on doing some machine embroidery today, but haven't decided what I'm going to work on yet.  

Here is a pic of what I embroidered the other day:

I am going to make it in to a pillow for my grandson Mike's new apartment as soon as I can get to Joanns to buy some Chief's fabric.  I bought this online at mydarlingdesigns.com.  She also has some really cute gnomes of the month designs so I had to buy them too.

Hi Lisa - good to see you back.

Spent Friday night at the sleep lab - gosh I hate that place but, I guess Medicare requires a baseline within a certain period of time. I told them I was done at 4:30 and going home. I've pretty much missed most of Yazi's visit trying to catch up on the sleep I lost - Ugh!

Taking Yazi to the train show today with Grandpa and giving momma a few well deserved hours off. Made Yazi a Kreative Kiwi Heart Banner for her bedroom door for Valentines Day. Turned out sweet. First thing I've done since Christmas. Felt really good to be back in the swing of things.

Love your gnomes pillow Barbara.  I almost bought the kit the other day, but decided not to.  Welcome back Lisa.
