A Treasure Found

Hello~ So sorry it has taken me so long to get back on here and share what we found out.

Right now it looks like my MIL has Lung cancer- stage one. However, she has several tests that will be run this week to see if the cancer has spread. It will be a busy week for her and I for sure. I will be taking her for her PET scan on Wednesday and then Friday she has to have a stint put in- so my husband and I will be taking her for that. If she has to have a stint- (not 100% percent - or just the Dr not wanting to tell her for sure that she is having to spend the night at this point. But if she does ( which she probably will) get a stint put in she will be spending the night.

Anyway I have an appointment to get my hair cut this week. It has only been 5-6 weeks - I am certainly ready for a hair cut. It seems that the hair in the front is growing much faster than my hair in the back. I will be asking why that is. And maybe it's not but it really does seem like it is. My hair is about collar length- like if I wear a top with a collar the hair hits the collar- it's great- but man - I miss my longer hair. And it seems that I notice everyone with long beautiful hair now. It's like they are coming out of the wood work....

 

Ok - So I wanted to share a blessing with you all.
Last week I went to a favorite little thrift shop in a nearby town and I found a really great deal. Something that I had not even been looking for but so thankful that I found it.
It is upholstery fabric! That will work perfectly for our antique chairs for our kitchen table. We got my husband's grandparent's table- the kind that has two drop sides- we believe it is a Duncan Phyfe table and the chairs that we have for it- have been reupholstered by us - but not by as luxurious fabric as this is. This is thick, great quality fabric- and I was able to get enough fabric to take care of the chairs- for only $5.00! I was thrilled with such a blessing. I had not idea that I was looking for something like this but I am so thrilled that I found it.

 

 

Well in just a few days our baby chicks will be 2 months old. They are growing so fast. I will try to get a photo of them soon to post so you can see how cute they are - they are like small little chickens.

 

Well we are slowly getting things done around here. This week end we wrote out a list of short term and long term things that we want to take care of.  By having the thing written down - I am hoping that we will be able to slowly work through the lists. Today I was able to get our carpets cleaned - and marked off of our list.

 

I feel like I am missing some things that I wanted to share - but if I have I'll try to get on soon as share.

 

I hope you all are doing well. I am doing pretty good. Will get on again as soon as I can. :O)
