I Love Thursday
This has been another week of troubling news; more trouble during a wellness check, Chief being violently abused during a traffic stop, watching the news from America. My heart is heavy with all that is going on and the increasing numbers of positive cases as our country re-opens. It is not always easy to seeContinueContinue reading “I Love Thursday”

I Love Thursday’s
I was first introduced to I Love Thursday’s by reading Sue and Roseanne’s blog Home Sewn By Us. Through their blog I discovered LeeAnna’s blog Not Afraid of Colour.

I’ve been busy sewing and getting some projects with deadlines done and while we have had some rain there has been lots of sunshine. 1.

Midweek Musing
I was just sitting here trying to knit and my mind started to wander. I was thinking of how our lives have changed with this worldwide crisis. I was thinking of my family in Alberta. With their lives and responsibilities staying home and staying safe is only a possibility for some of them. My daughterContinueContinue reading “Midweek Musing”
I Like
1. I love the market garden just down the road that is now safely delivering fresh picked lettuce and greens from their greenhouses. It’s all organic and has flavour like my garden produce used to have. I could happily live on salads! 2. I really like the fact that with the nicer weather DH isContinueContinue reading “I Like”
Fabric Pulls
These past few days found me going down a rabbit hole. I hit the wall with missing family, not being able to focus, and really missing the physical contact of a simple hug. It was really strange not to see family or friends over the Easter weekend other than social media posts, video and telephoneContinueContinue reading “Fabric Pulls”

I love DH and the strange and wonderful things we wind up doing. Towing the golf cart toContinueContinue reading “I Love Thursday”

Mosaic Mystery Update
This morning we had to go to Nelson for DH’s doctor’s appointments. Normally a 50 minute drive. We have severe storm warnings out so it took me an hour and a half to get there. After the appointment we stopped for prescriptions and groceries. The trip home took me just over 1 3/4 hours. ItContinueContinue reading “Mosaic Mystery Update”
