We have a little silver box sitting on our mantel. It was the first thing I unpacked. I love it. My family gave it to me as a going away gift.
It is engraved inside. It says “Never Far From Home“
It contains something from each of them.

I have the fingerless mitts perfected.
This pair has the right propotions for the hand but is a bit short on the wrist area. It is supposed to allow you to grip that cold steering wheel with covered hands but leave enough room for you to dig for coffee change, or sign last minute homework notebooks [...]

I found a pattern for wristlet thingies for girls. I made a couple pair from the pattern and they came out OK but I thought “I must be able to make them go higher up on the palm of the hand than that”. This was my first attempt at extending them. Okay but nothing to [...]

The girls went to Nickelback this weekend. Randy and I kept the human grandson and the canine grandson. It went well. Very well…but we are beat.
Scooby doesn’t like where I chose to plant my marine heliotrope. He moved them for me multiple times this weekend.
I had them planted on each side of my stone walkway. [...]

Jade turned 19 and got her own house.

First off J&J’s house is here. We are thrilled for them.
Here is a short video of them starting to position one piece of it on the foundation.

That was the lastest phone call!
She called to tell me that the house is coming tomorrow night. I am supposed to let everyone know. So if you see a big house coming across the causeway, it is J&J’s. I say big house, they say it isn’t that big. Three bedrooms, 2 baths’ for 2 adults [...]
