It really does look like little stitched patches. Lovely! Sometimes life just gets extra busy -- no reason to apologize. It's really so nice to hear about all the wonderful opportunities to share and participate in activities in your community. Sounds like such great living arrangements surrounded by like-minded people. And wow! Your yarn haul will certainly keep you busy for a while.

Sounds like a very active community, which would be a good thing for us as we age and get too sedentary. Oh, I love that quilt! That is amazing! What a lot of work!!! It is really beautiful. You are very talented. Your Easter decorations are cute and fun. Yes, Easter is right around the corner and I am not quite ready yet. I will do some decorating this week. Thank you for visiting my blog post last night. And yes, we all go through spells where we just have so much going on in our "real lives" that can't quite keep up with our wonderful friends here online. I try, but sometimes life just gets in the way. I pray you have a blessed and beautiful week...stay warm and cozy and safe!Pamela M.

I like the quilt you knitted. It could be good that way or with with flannel on other side. Make it cozy. We've been having some issues on internet as the weird weather we've had this week. Sometimes Megan's laptop 💻 won't work and she's now using Hotspot she checked out at library and it works for her. I have problems on my cellphone due to problems. I was at Hobby Lobby last Tuesday to get a few things but I didn't get any yarn. I did go through those aisles though. Nice decorations.

They went all over the place - including places in the states like Branson. I've been trying to convince Dave's Mom to check out something like it. I think she'd really have fun (and make some new friends - now that we're out here and Grandma is gone, she's a little lost).<br />My brother occasionally goes on some with his uncle-in-law. They go to the casinos. My brother (who is in his mid-40s) says he loves hanging out with the "bus seniors" because they know how to have a good time!<br />Love your Easter decorations and that sock yarn blanket! Gorgeous!<br />That "adopted" joke makes me think of the things my Dad used to say to me. Mostly that they found me in a pumpkin patch... but he also like to tell me he picked me up at the circus... and my favourite... that I was actually twins, but they could only afford one, so they decided to keep the "funny looking one". <br />Wanderingcatstudiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11459444703722115118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8162150278449660664.post-65811624667608784752023-03-24T18:48:34.229-05:002023-03-24T18:48:34.229-05:00So glad you're back, Betsy!
