ciao Florence Nightingale....

been away from my silly life. convalescing nicely. with my sister and her family. a home filled with endless activity. there shall be no way to truly thank Linda for all she has done. she is family. she is love. she is precious. she moved her dining room settee. into her living room. and i have been there for 7 or 8. well maybe it was really 9 weeks. i suspect a pretty ordinary healing process. surgery. awesome. scary. annoying. but it is time for me to get back at it. go home. will miss this time. so much. Champ. faithful family dog. Princess. other faithful family dog. love them. scrappy flannel quilt. warm & cosy. a gift made for me. a few years ago. thank you Jessica. thrifted linen tablecloth. which makes the best-est sheet. cool when it's hot. warm when it's chilly. finally got me some Garnet Hill pajamas. 2 of them. thanks Mom. the ever-powerful-t.v.-remote-control. pretty sure i am caught up on all my shows. a desparately-needed-new-camera. QVC. 2 payments down. 3 more to go. and a-special-bundle-of-long-desired-fabric. because who could not sew for that long. without dreaming. pheww. been-away-too-long-post completed. and yet. there is a storm coming. do you follow other CT bloggers. Jennifer. Jackie. Heather. Audrie. Terry. they do a better job of explaining weather and seasonal events. after reading their posts i often say "ditto". just saying. and to our NJ bloggers. Lisa. Barb. stay safe. and i'll be sewing with you after the storm.
