My Dad!!

Dad passed away on the 15th May 2008 and at last
his suffering is over.

I have also had a knee operation and am recovering nicely.
I have 5 more weeks on crutches and then I will be able to get
back in the normal way of life.
Walking with these crutches are not for me. Was born clumsy. Thought
having an extra leg will work faster but no it is just plain terrible. hehehehe
I do get some work done though sitting around all day. Will post pictures soon.
Take care and hugs.

Embroidery at last!!

At last I have had some time to do

a bit of embroidery. Had to make

some blocks for a country friendship

quilt and did this but it is too dainty

for the quilt and will use it later on

for another quilt I have going.

Baby photo's!!

This is some baby pictures of me

that I had received from my mom.

garden completed!!!

At last the garden is now completed

and we can have morning coffee

and watch every working soul drive

by to work. hehehehe

My Dad!!

Dad is in hospital and not doing

great at all. His heart had stopped but

they got it going again and also the

kidneys are not working.

He will be 80 in October this year.

and the crushed pebbles.

My angel quilt top is coming along just great
