    Beth, fingers crossed for a room for your mom soon.

    Lisa, the quilt is lovely - a real conversation piece. I love it.

    We’re getting wind today from Debby, so I decided to take advantage of the breeze and work in my flower bed deer food garden. I got six bags of mulch. I’m going to try once more with my latest coleus cuttings. One of my first attempts is coming back quite nicely after being eaten down to the ground. Even my hosta is sprouting back out.

    Flea - I’m so sorry to hear you have MBC also; diagnosed de Novo had to be a terrible shock! I’m so happy to hear that your PET scan showed no active disease. Are you on a maintenance treatment? 🫂💞

    Beth. Thank you. Prayers are always welcome.

    Barbie. Yay! So happy for you all to have Jake back home! 👏

    Lisa Thank you! I’m never sure whether to share because I don’t want to come across as a whiner and I certainly don’t want to make anyone uncomfortable, but sometimes it feels good to be able to share. I think any chronic illness can be lonely and scary, and sometimes it feels good just to be able to talk about it. For some reason, writing about it in a spoiler felt safest so that others could ignore or read it at their own comfort level. I don’t want to wear out my welcome to the group my first week back! 😂😬

    FREE MOTION QUILTING! It’s actually my goal to learn how to do that! I’ve not had any luck—maybe because I’m afraid of ruining my quilt tops, so I give up at the first sign of imperfection (first few seconds?). I think I will make it my mission this week to sew some scraps together and practice, practice, practice. I actually think I’d enjoy doing the quilting if I could just meander around and not worry about my lines being wonky.

    115° F? Oh my gosh. I just couldn’t…

    Pip It was me. I was a little late donating this year. Oops, life craziness. You are truly inspiring!

    Tracie As Lisa said, sharing lessons the load. It also educates us. Happy for both your and Flea's current health!

    Preparing to travel to see my sister. I am looking forward to the road trip. Just me, my miata, and my music!

    Have finally caught up, but eyelids are heavy.

    Healing thoughts!
    Thankful for you all!

    Lots of Love,
    Kylia in Ohio

    Oh, Michele...no toilet paper on the holder! Luckily when they unrolled it , it was close to needing changed. More kitty news later.

    Tracey - I think you have waited long enough and are entitled to ring them and ask if they have made a decision yet. How enormously frustrating for you. <3

    Tracie - It looks as if your treatment is going really well, like Flea. I like getting the information on any medical matters as it could happen to any one of us. I had breast cancer in 2007, with chemo, and always worry about it returning.

    Flea - So sorry about your decluttering hitting the buffers. :# It seems so many women have the same problem. <3 Well done on getting your part sorted! That's a major achievement.

    Love Heather UK xxxxxxxx
