New window in the building.

I got a new window in the $$ pit. For 2 days I had a big open hole in my bedroom now everyone in town has seem my bedroom!

It turned into a bigger job than I expected. The wall was not good and we had to replace all the inside wall in the room.

I hope this stops the rain and water from coming in. The top of the old window had slipped 1/2" and was open . Water was coming in from the sidewalk when it rained. After all the work , $$ and time I hope it's fixed!





My new window.

Now to get the $$ for the other window!!!

Quilt group Christmas! We start early!

This is what we see when we all walked into Maxine's house the night of our Christmas party. We all took food and a gife to exchange. I over endulged! Big time! Everything was so good and I didn't have to cook it!

There is not a thing better than time with good friends sharing the things we all like. Quilts , food, and each other.

This is our kickoff for the Christmas season!!

Tuesday quilt meeting.

The quilt meeting was at my place in Oct. Sandy

We had a great time and all had a nice candle mat when they went home.

Spook time!

This was my Halloween costume. My D-son invited me to his H-party Sat. night. He said I could only come if I had a costume . I went and no one could tell who I was and so he thinks I did show up to the party.

Wall and counter space.

This is one of my walls in my living space. Everything is out . I have not got any cupboards to put things in. Kristin helped me and put up the counter top in the corner for work space and storage. We used fence post for the legs and a part of a counter top we found in the back of the building so it was a low budget fix.

My kitchen sink

This is my kitchen sink. It was in the building and looking bad with drawers missing. With new facets and lots of scrubbing and a coat of apple green paint. Some selves made out of some stuff all ready here. I love it! Dear Granddaughter Kristin painted it for me. Then she took a old recipe book from the 50's and did a collage of the pages for me on the wall. The chair is one of five I got for $2.00 each at the Goodwill.
The building is a mess but it will get better with work and lot's of $$. It will be slow but I have more time than $$.

What's nice is I can have fun and do as I like with it.

In Nebraska now. And don't you just love duck tape?

My poor dog packed in the van. He hates to ride in the van. He was one sad puppy! Here we are packed and ready to head out from AZ. We couldn't get one more thing in IT!

It looks like the Beverly Hillbilly's on the move! Jennie did the packing of the van and the Duck tape wounder on top. We didn't have a problem with it all the way home.

We left AZ in the middle of July . Went to Waco , TX. to see #1 Grand Daughter , Kristin at Mission Waco where she spent 10 weeks this Summer. Then it was on to NE.

I will have some photos of my living space in the old building I bought last Oct. When I have time to post them.

I have a job taking care of a couple that are so nice. They are a joy to be with and to do for.
