Fought the good fight…fighting still for my daughters and granddaughters.
This year, my husband and I celebrate our 45th wedding anniversary. I never changed my name, nor did two out of the three daughters who married. I guess we were onto something.

During our basement clean out, I came across materials to make potholders. Of course, I had to make one.

I joined Costco. I shopped there for the first time yesterday. I now feel like I’m part of the resistance.

Staying sane by making quilts. Now I’m on to a Harry Potter quilt for a granddaughter.

Finished the ‘Grateful Baby’ quilt for the grandson of a dear friend…who was just as much an old hippie deadhead as I am.

My 7yo granddaughter found a dead beetle and decided to move it to a safer place - somewhere it wouldn’t get trampled on. As she gently carried it over to the grass, she whispered to it ‘goodbye little buddy…I hope you had a joyful life’

Last Friday, while doing their morning/calendar activity, my 1st grader granddaughter raised her hand to answer the question ‘what day is today?’ Her reply was ‘Buy nothing day.’ As a mother/grandmother, my work is done 😊❤️

A distraction while the US goes up in flames…

This is a quilt I made for my daughter and son-in-law. All guests at the wedding were asked to draw/color a square and I then made it into a quilt.

When I despair, I remember that all through history the way of truth and love has always won. There have been tyrants and murderers and for a time they seem invincible, but in the end, they always fall... think of it, always. - Gandhi

Happy Birthday, Abe! You must be rolling over in your grave seeing what’s become of your party.

I know what’s going on, but I’m trying to limit the amount of news I’m watching/reading/listening to. So, I’ve been baking, quilting and listening to music.
