Catch Up Posts, Days 11, 12 and 13

I knew keeping a blog would be the hardest part. And now, I've proved it. Here are the starts for Days 11-13

Day 11 ... my regular stitching group met today. We talked, we fretted about the impending snow, and occasionally, we stitched.

Day 12. The Washington DC EGA Chapter meeting should have been today. Instead, it was stitch at home day because the meeting was cancelled due to snow. We didn't get much snow, but the schools opened 2 hours late. Even without the meeting to head to, I didn't get a lot of stitching done.





Day 13. The furnace repair man FINALLY came with the ordered part. A couple of weeks ago, our heat pump for the back part of the house went out. It iced over. The repairman said he didn't have the part needed, and he HOPED he could order it ... the heat pump is getting pretty old and parts are hard to find. While he was here, we heard funny noises coming from the main furnace. Perfect timing....one of its parts was also on its last legs. He managed to find the part for that one and installed it that day.

Here is today's start.

I probably won't post again for several days. We are heading to Long Island for some birthdays. My oldest granddaughter turns 11 on January 29th, and youngest grandson turns 8 on the 15th. Combined birthday party this weekend. Then, we have to come back quickly because we are babysitting our grandson in Maryland while his parents head to the doctor to get the verdict on Rick's cancer treatments. Has the Interleukin-2 treatment helped? That is the big question. If it has done what we all hope it has done, he will get the start date for the next series of IL-2 treatments. If it hasn't been effective, the doctor will suggest some alternative treatments. Prayers please, that it has done it's job!
