Xmas

Cannot believe how many months have gone by since arriving from Illinois. Nina is doing real well and in remission.  I have been spending my time knitting and crocheting and doing silk ribbon projects.  Also took a class with Trish Burr from South Africa online and made her little Bee Eater, loved doing the project and I think for my first project it came out good.  Will be doing more thread painting projects soon.  Have fallen behind on TAST again, have about 6 weeks to make up and have not posted the pictures of all the ones I have done, need to do that soon.  I am also embellishing a sewing basket that I purchased, it is a pie safe basket and I love it so I am decorating the lid. Our Arts and Crafts group filled bags of candy for people living in our mobile home park.  Santa Claus will be coming around with elves passing out bags of candy to the residents, it was so much fun laughing and giggling with all the ladies while busy working.  I also have not been feeling good since returning from Illinois and two weeks ago I was rushed to the ER by paramedics with what everyone thought was a heart attack, after 7 hours in the ER I was transferred to my hospital and was there for 3 days and finally found out I had a gall bladder attack, the pain was horrible.  I will be having surgery on December 21st.  Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
