Hi Sandy, I checked with Kevin and he asked me to say he is sorry if he did
not let you know when he got the card. He has been going about as hard as he can since the fire, and he still hasn't caught up with everything. He and family are still living with us, but it just isn't working out for either of us. We helped them find a used mobile home and it was just moved to their property 2 days ago. There is about 2 weeks of work to be done before they can move in. We had rain a few days that delayed the move a few days. Also, tomorrow he goes for a hearing to see if he can get his disability because of his eyes being so bad, and the diabetics swelling up his legs and feet so it is difficult for him to walk. Kevin and family say Thank You for thinking of them. And I really appreciate it too. Barbara, now in HOT, DAMP SC "Sandy E" wrote in message ... Howdy! How are your kids doing, Barbara? (Did they get my card?) Cheers to you, all of you! Sandy On 5/8/14 12:40 PM, in article , "Bobbie Sews More" wrote: "Taria" wrote in message ... Just wondering. Give a check in if you are still here. Maybe if others realize folks still check here they might post? Taria I check in regularly. I haven't done any quilting lately . Been very busy helping son & DiL find a place to live. They have been living in our house since the fire burned their apartment on Christmas Day night and they lost everything. Hopefully, they will be able to move into a mobile home within a month! We are excited about that, Barbara in SC --- news://freenews.netfront.net/ - complaints: --- --- news://freenews.netfront.net/ - complaints: --- |

I am supposed to have usenet through my isp. However I have never had much luck with the services beyond a bare connection from them. They used to blame it on my location, now they blame it on my OS. I just gave up on them, and now I go through eternal-september for usenet. There are several other free places to access the usenet through, a quick websearch should turn them up. NightMist |

Howdy! Girlfriend B-fly, e' me; tell me what's up. Was comparing notes about Phoenix with a friend, she loves it; well, I've BEEN there, at least! Also came across a pic of your hexagon quilt, hand-quilted, of course. g To all those who "check in" - SAY SOMETHING! POST! Then we can all read it; otherwise, we're going to talk about you behind your back. ;-P Cheers! Ragmop/Sandy Haven’t been on here in a few weeks as this Compie had to have a MAJOR attitude adjustment seminar to the point of leaving home. Even with as little as I’m on here, I did miss not having it. Realized I mainly use it for emails and to ‘look up things’ more than just browsing, being on here just to have something to do,etc. anyway, it now has the new Windows and is soooooooooo much faster, it was worth the wait. Don’t have a place to move to yet but we have until the 30th to be outta here. We’ve already hit our 100°, but the tomato plant is still giving one tomato at a time. YUM! The rose bush was pretty stingy with flowers this spring so it’ll be transplanted into a larger container this fall.Give it room to stretch it’s roots once again. It WILL stay in a container as I don’t want it left behind. It’s the only one I have left from CA. (Ragmop. check your email...not sure if that's working yet. still have a few things that need transferring or whatever they it's called.) Butterfly |

I'm going to add a piece to this reply, in the hope that a reply will get through, where I can't seem to get a 'starting post' to appear?? I agree, it is good to see a few of the previous large 'crew' appearing here from time to time. I posted ages ago that I would give details of a book I have found most interesting - it might appeal to those who have always liked Celtic Knotwork - or want to have a look at it! I plan (I think) to use the instructions in the book to draw quilting designs rather than piecing or appliqué. It is called: How to Draw Celtic Knotwork A Practical Handbook by: Andy Sloss published by Brockhampton Press (latest edition 1998) ISBN No. 1 86019 8597 Hope this goes through! Pat on the Green |
