I'm Back

From nowhere. I have just been neglecting my blog. I really have no excuses. I have pictures to upload; interesting (well, to me, at least!) news and yet I post nothing.

The big news here is that my daughter is pregnant again. Yay!!! She is expecting her second baby next May. We are very happy. Michael, the big brother is telling every one that is is a girl. It would be fun to make some pretty little girl things. And all the new toys out there for girls! I want that life-sized doll house thingy I see on tv for myself!

Right now I am in Baltimore visiting my oldest daughter. I spent yesterday on the train. Today we went to a fabric store in Columbia where I picked up 3 free sample books and a yard of silk that retails for $130/yd that I got for $12. It was and upholstry/home dec outlet store. We may get out to a quilt store tomorrow. I came down with my Amy Butler weekender bag. I am taking home Adrienne's Vera Bradley duffle bag. Well at least now I know she will visit: she wants that bag back!

I have also been to one quilt show and a quilter's holiday in the past month. I will post the pictures when I get home. Yes, I know-they have been sitting in my camera for over a month. This time I promise.

All is well with the family and work. Still not enough time to do all I want but I have to say that today I am feeling very blessed. I have the time and means to travel; my family is healthy and happy and right now, all is right with the world.

May it stay that way.

I am back at blogging after weeks and weeks of neglect myself. Congrats on the second baby! Hope all goes well. I wish for grand's one day but I have a 17, a 15 and an 8 year old so I can wait--except yesterday I went to the dermatologist and learned that two spots--one on the bridge of my nose right beside my eye are skin cancers and the basal cell on the nose may require surgery and a 'flap'! We don't like the 'c' word even when it isn't the most serious you could have. So, here's hoping I make it to grand's!
