Hello - I knew it had been a little bit since I had made a post, however I really didn't think it had been this long. Wow. I miss posting (and reading) blogs - life just gets in the way.
So thinking back I'm trying to see what all has taken up my time... :)
Obviously I've been working a lot. Sewing and stitching are primarily left for days off and they are sporadic. And then there is still cooking, cleaning and errands to run. On my days off, I have been able to have a couple of lunches with my quilting buddies and Sister now that she is back for the winter. She has also come over a couple of times to spend an afternoon and we stitched a little. So even though I haven't gotten a lot of sewing or stitching done, there have been little bits here and there. Surprisingly in Oct there was a retreat (we had to wear masks the whole time - but it was fun) and I was able to get this much of the top of a baby quilt done.

We took the masks off briefly for the picture.
But let me back up a little. On one of my last posts for September I posted that I wanted to finish the stitching on this, and did.
And also in September we got 15 new windows and 4 new doors. Not that you knew what it looked like before but this really looks much better.
Lately I've been working on some of these little squares. I think because they are small and something I can accomplish in a few hours.
Hubby and I are doing walks on most mornings - we have missed a few do to my schedule or the biting wind but we have been otherwise steady.
I've also been doing some morning reading. I have been doing a lot of Kelly Minter's Bible Studies "Nehemiah, Ruth and The Fitting Room" and I also finished a book by Susanne Eller "Joykeeper".
It's a nice way to start my mornings, while I have my coffee and wake up.
Other things that have gone on: I got a Homer Badge award at work in September. Then In Oct I got Assoc of the Month for my Dept.
So the last but not least to share - is our Thanksgiving. Putting aside the fact we couldn't spend it with our Children and grandchildren - it was awesome.
I have to say - the turkey was wonderful. Below is a selfie with my Sister.
Here is our post dinner pre-dessert walk.
So that is a very general overview of the last (wow) 3 months.
I'm hoping to blog more and I'm hoping to sew more. I guess we'll see how that goes. Before I leave I'll share some photos of patterns I bought. 
Aren't they super cute?
Like I don't have enough patterns already and like I have time to get them done - but I'm hopeful. :)
I'll work at posting more often, even if it's just a meal I've cooked.
Have a blessed day everyone -
Lynn
