I haven't had any free time to keep up with my blog, I really should just sit down everyday and write a little something about my boring, stressful life!
Let's see if I can remember any highlights.
My beloved husband Randy was in the hospital March 28 - April 7. 7 put of those 11 days were spent in ICU. I was really afraid I was going to loose him, it was touch and go for several days. His PCP debated on whether to put him on hospice or therapy, therapy won. Today will be his last day of physical therapy. Dr said he thinks he'll see another winter. I hope he's wrong! I hope it's longer!
We've all known for several years that he will not live to a ripe old age and he has really surprised his Dr's that he's lasted this long. I'm looking forward to our 26th anniversary on Oct 13th as well as his 68th birthday on Oct. 31st.
My oldest daughter Hunter came for a quicky visit in April. She was supposes to arrive here on a Friday at noon, but her flight got canceled in Atlanta. ( she lives in Knoxville, TN). So she was stuck in Atlanta airport for 12 long hours on standby, just waiting... Finally got a flight out around 10 pm and arrived here in Tulsa at midnight. This killed a whole day that she had to spend with us, as she had to fly out Monday afternoon. She just moved back to Knoxville, after spending 4 years in NM. Kinda came full circle! She went to UT Knoxville where she got her degree. She has been a Television Producer for the past 20 years, living in many states. Funny how she ended up where it all began!
We didn't get to sew much but she did make a little charm patch skirt for her niece. She left a row off of it, since Harper is such a tiny little girl.
As soon as I can figure out how to post pictures from my IPad, I'll get some up.
I've also made a couple of charm pack skirts for my DGd Molly. she loves them and wants more. I'm going to enter them in Pattern Review's Sewing for Kids contest.
It's been a pretty dull year other wise. I'm in the process of making a pink and brown 3 rail fence for the girl who does Randy's personal care. She is due any day now.
If I think of any more exciting news, I'll post.
And Sew It Seams!

About Me
- Melinda in Tulsa
- I started my blog just as a way to document a little bit of my dull and boring life. I have a husband, 3 dogs, 2 cats, a Military Macaw, Meyers Parrot, a turtle, tarantuala, 3 horses, and around a 100 racing pigeons. Oh, and a bunch of chickens and guinea's... a regular zoo, or am I a diary farmer...Can't ever go anywhere! Thank goodness for being an empty nester! I enjoy all kinds of sewing, gardening, reading, but mostly playing on the computer.

You are Temperance
Time. Ages. Transformation. Involuntary change
Temperance is another card of aspiration, but also of much change. It often represents complex situations. Positively, you can harmonize contrary forces.
Temperance is, on a surface level, about "tempering." The original pouring from cup to cup might have been about cutting wine with water. So this is a card about moderation. There is, however, another angle to the card, that of merging seemingly impossible opposites. Sagittarius, the centaur, merges beast and man into a unique creature. And then there is the bow and arrow, one moving, one stationary, working together to point the way. Temperance may be, at first glance, a warning for you to "temper" your behavior, to cut your wine with water. But it may also be a reminder to that seemingly irreconcilable opposites may not be irreconcilable at all. Belief that fiery red and watery blue cannot be merged may be the only thing standing in the way of blending the two. Change the belief, measure out each with care, and you can create otherworldly violet.
