It's I like Thursday! Sponsored by Lee Anna at Not Afraid of Color, we express happiness and gratitude!
I've been absent because I've been caring for my brother. First it was kidney problems and then as he was recuperating, he fractured his back. The back fracture was most likely due to osteoporosis.
This is the same brother who lost his wife in March so I've been extra worried about him being alone when he was out of the hospital. Fortunately, he lives down the street which made it easier to care for him. And of course, I'm still caring for my mother. It was a little crazy.
But I'm happy to report that he had an epidural last week and it seems to have provided him with some relief. It's terrible to see loved ones suffering and I'm just grateful he can move a little easier now.
I love my dog and he has provided some really fun entertainment when I've actually been home. The goofball feigns like he's really tough but he's actually afraid of odd things like:
wash baskets
buckets
acorns falling to the ground
and this pillow:
It fell to the floor while he was getting a toy and he spent about 20 minutes smelling it and then running away and jumping onto the couch. π He's my little goofball!
When one doesn't have time to sew, one orders a lot of fabric. Happily (for my wallet) I'm back in the sewing room finally!
