Diana: (((((((HUGS))))))) I think you made the right decision. Lynde - if you meet either Damsel or Neferkitty up there, meow "Hello" to them for me.

**********

JDIs for today:

- pay bills/paperwork
- take DD to shop for a watch
- dust/tidy up my bedroom
- cut out 38 more yellow fabric circles for the quilt

Hugs Dianaro. It hurts when our fur babies leave us even when we know they are better off. I hope Sylvester and Gypsy soon get over their sense of loss too.

I'm still working on baby steps with M's gown. When I get the next couple of steps done, the pieces will be together so that it will be looking like a dress instead of fabric pieces.

Yesterday I got most of my errands done although I decided to use the car instead of walking - the weather was threatening to rain. I picked up one restored pic from my grandparent's wedding. The gal is having problems restoring the other one I got my DH's prescription and bought a few groceries. However I forgot to buy a zipper for M's gown and I'm going to need that soon.

This morning I paid the bills online - YAY! And I'm working on laundry - the church towels are clean, folded and ready to return. I am doing 2 loads of clothes for DH and me - first load ready to fold and put away, second load in the dryer, most likely ready to bring up, fold and put away.

jdi's for tues

after he left i listened to an archived motivational site on here, then went to bed at midnight.

Hugs Dianaro.

Thank you mary and tinytina, I couldn't do it last week, as I thought she might get better, but she was getting worse. I KNEW yesterday to go ahead. We had a good day all together, and the pets are all over me because they feel badly also. We will get thru it and even Sylvester played with Lynde's roll toy. It is a plastic holder that has a ball inside and she would play with it, he hardly ever did, the past two nights he has played with it! That shows me he is missing her.

I was able to finish the freezer clearing out, now just the trash out. The frig is in good shape. I cleaned it out before the weekend and my trip.

Today is wet and gloomy. Have to go to rehab, and just pick up a few things afterwards from the store.....then home again and a long rest.

Did two batches of clothing yesterday, all ready to wear. Think two need a little freshening up with the iron. Anyhow, that may be something I will do another batch or two of clothing for sping/summer.

I wash them before I put them away, but like to "freshen" them up when it is time to switch things out.

So my JDIs for today:

Bring trash and recyling cans in
rehab
storeone batch of laundry
Move a few jackets over to winter storage

Forgot to mention that I have been playing a little JDI game each day. Instead of not completing an entire project (like eating lunch and then putting the dishes in the sink), I have been putting the trash into the trash can, but THEN rinsing the actual dishes and silverware and putting it right into the DW.
Sometimes I fill up the sink, but there haven't been alot of cooking done here lately, so by doing this little extra ETEing I am keeping things really really nice! I could get use to this!

I've been trying to maintain my house while concentrating on getting M's wedding gown sewn - baby steps at a time. Today I attached the skirt pieces to the bodice - and it's looking like a dress. WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! M is going to be a beautiful bride!

The next step is inserting the zipper but first I have to go buy a zipper. I'm thinking of taking the dress when I go out and I'll stop and show it to M's mother. Her mom lives in the same town as me. While I'm out of the house, I'm going to take care of a couple other tasks.

Darlene:
What an achievement, a bridal dress sown!!!!!!! WHOOOOOO HOOOOOOO
That is something!

Rested some and took some meds, but still hurting I think it is the weather.

Diane you were so good with Lynde .I am so sorry...Love,Ann 39
Peace Lynde.
