Hello

You may have been wondering where I've been. But then maybe not. It's okay. Things haven't been that interesting around here. I've been doing a bit of sewing, but taking photos and writing about the projects just seem too tiresome these past months.
Last Thursday (just one week shy of his 81st birthday), I lost one of the most caring & thoughtful human beings I have been blessed to know. For six months he fought the cancer that attacked his body. He was a lion! But like all warriors, he became tired of the fighting. The pain. He just wanted to rest and be wrapped in the arms of those who had gone before him.
I miss him so much already. Goodbye Dad. Oneday, we'll meet again.
