11/05/14

I have the next 3 days off! Any day off is a good day.

Mom started making ornaments for the grand/great grandchildren last December.
She finished a little less than half of them. She wanted to give them to each child
for Christmas.
Makes me a little sad to see them undone and I feel a little regret
that I didn't work on them with her to help her finish them.
That's one of my plans for these 3 days.....to finish the ornaments.

I was sitting on the couch one night, a couple of months after my mom passed away.
I was  hurting, and missing my mom.
This feeling of warmth, love, and contentment enveloped all of me......it was real. It was palpable..............now corny as it may sound I knew it was my mom wrapping me in her arms and in her love.........I have no doubt  she was there with me.

I finished painting the dresser.
It looks OK as a buffet in my dining room.................and since the drawers are huge and deep
it gives me some much needed storage for dishes and cooking ware that we don't use everyday.
