September...

Well...it's been quite a month.  I have a show/sale next weekend so

mostly I've been weaving and organizing

and tagging and pricing, etc. all month.

 Scarf detail...

 Towels on the loom...

 Another scarf detail...

And we made butter

 Made 32 pounds of applesauce to freeze

Gary is building a deck for storing wood for heat

And I went to see my sweet Mom in NH.  My sister

Faith and her husband were there, too.

The second night I was there sleeping my Mom

wandered out to her screened-in porch and

got locked out of the house.  Luckily

there is a phone out there and she called

the operator who called the police.

Next thing I know there is a cop banging on

the door.  Sooooo...needless to say we now have

an awake night nurse staying with her every night.

But the next weekend she ended up in the hospital

with a blood sugar over 600.  Oh my god.

It really is a wonder that she is alive.

I think she is getting discharged today and

will have people checking in during the

day and making sure she eats properly.

It is so hard to be 6 hours away from her.

Isn't she totally adorable? 

Oh yeah...my horse. 

I'm going to see if we can

find her another home. 

Karen,

you were so right...

I see Miss Ellie more as

a hunter/jumper and she has way more

energy than I need.  I have put out the word

with my horse ladies and we'll see.

Meanwhile, I'm not telling my trainer because

he thinks I am giving up.  And for

a while I believed that but now I realize

that this should be fun and I am

not wanting to go out to the barn

anymore.  sigh.  But I still need him

to work with her so I'm keeping quiet.

So an eventful month and I haven't had

much time to even check in with my blog.

Hope you all are enjoying the weekend!
