Wow, It's hard to believe that I haven't written in this blog since May 25. I just haven't been able to take the time and I guess I didn't really have alot to write. I also haven't been reading too many blogs at the moment. I also got caught up in a few online games that i've had fun playing and they take up alot of time.
I really haven't had much time in my sewing room. I am working on the last round of my challenge quilt. I missed the June meeting as MY Mom in law had her 3 week post surgery visit with the surgeon, here in Calgary and we talked them into staying
the night and the trip is 2 1/2 to 3 hours from here driving. But that meant that I needed to be home cooking supper and visiting so I missed the meeting. We have a speaker at our June potluck so I was disappointed but it was good that I stayed home.

Mom is now finally doing a little better but she is back in the hospital for an infection. Over a week now. The infection looks like it is finally starting to clear. Dave's sister and neice have been there with them since May 13. They fly home tomorrow.
Another friend, who is a retired nurse is coming on Wednesday. She will be here a couple of weeks. I don't know how we'll do after that. Time will tell I guess. Dad also has alzeimer's so I doubt they will manage too well on their own. Don't think that Mom will cope too well with all his questions when she is not feeling up to it anymore.

Our neice came home with us for the weekend when we were down to Blairmore for a Doctor's conference on Sat.
Dave drives down after work tonight to pick up Myrna as their flight home is around 10 tomorrow morning.
Then Mary arrives in Calgary Wed. around 10am and Dave will drive her down and he'll come back home the same day.
He just finished his holidays and is back at work today.

Hopefully I'll find some sewing time soon. I have a couple of wedding gifts I need to make. Thought I'd make a small wall hanging for each of them. One wedding is in August and the other in Sept. Both ladies that I work with.

I am just trying to upload a picture. Haven't done that much since we got the imac. So now it's at the top of the note.
But it's not a picture. I think that you have to click on the address to get the picture. I will finish typing this note and then try it as see what happens. Hope the picture can be seen. It's Dave and myself with Chris in his grad gown. Just before the ceremony. Over 200 kids in the graduating class.

Well, I guess that's all for now.
Happy quilting and I hope to get around to reading more blogs again.
