Good Day!
I don't know where the time has gone!
On January 4th my mom fell outside on her sidewalk & fractured her pelvis.
I have never seen my mom in so much pain.
I took her home after 2 weeks in the hospital.
To her house!
She had to promise to shower when someone is there, and not to use her wood stove. Using the wood stove means kindling, going outside, packing wood.
I take or make her supper every second day.
Hopefully her sisters visit the days I'm not there!
It's Chinese New Years Buffet at the a restaurant in town.
I've asked her all week if I could pick her up.
Last night she said, yes, pick me up, I'm feeling better.
Then, no, I'm not going with a walker.
OI!
Anyhoo, she's on the mend!
Vanessa did send me a picture of her Christmas card.
Next to the shaker cards it's her favorite.
That's pretty high praise!
It's real sparkly in real life!
I realized when she sent the picture, that the wooden hearts I put on look like V's!
I did get some Valentine cards made!
at least it isn't -40!
It's been raining all week, so the snow is almost gone!
The snow wouldn't quit, so I had a laundry soap making day!
I don't know where the time has gone!

I love that this folds flat!
We had snowmaggedon! Nothing like down east, but it started & wouldn't quit!
This is probably day 4, and Kalen finally got one piece of snow removal equipment working!
When I complained to my family up north, they said, well at least it isn't -40!

Fels Naptha is getting harder to find just over the line in the
U S of A, so I used Zote.
The bar is twice as big, think the price is comparable!
I also ordered some seeds online, which surprised me by arriving the next week!
We still want to get some Milkweed, as we seen Monarchs at the lake when the kids were here.
Kalen didn't think they were this far north.
Pretty sure I'm right in their path for the lake!!
Actually, I'd like to plant more shrubs & flowers, cut down on the mowing!
Also, my front yard is pretty much dirt, so would like to fill in with Hostas etc. It's shady & they are compatible with walnut trees.
Better go.
Hope you are well!
Talk to ya later!

Apart from your mom falling this is again a fabulous post so enjoy these and pleased to read mom is well on the mend must of been so sore sending lots of love and a speedy recovery to your mom xx
So sorry to hear about your Mom's fall - tell her if she wants to be out and about and a walker is needed to do that, that's what she should do! She shouldn't be reigned in by circumstances, when there's a way of overcoming them. Anyhow, love all your cards - I got the same die you used on your Mom's Valentine's card but guess what: so far I have only considered it for wedding cards. I really am in a tunnel sometimes! have a good weekend!
hello Gail what a wonderful daughter you are .Hope your Mom 's recovery is swift . Another interesting post and love the cards shared
Oh dear why do people not be careful when have falls realising they're warning to take care. Pray youre mum, dear Gail, is wise and looks after herself and realises she's no longer 25 and bounces well!
Lovely lot of cards and loved listening to your other happy chatter too.
Thanks for sharing, and may God bless you.
Hugs, Shaz in Oz.x
