Where have I been?

Well April was an awful month for me, with the tree pollen and grasses coming into bloom.  As I have gotten older things have gotten worse.  This time I had such a sore throat from all this stuff, that I could barely eat anything.  At first we wondered if it was strep, so I went to the clinic and no it was just extremely irritated. 

On Easter, we were to go to my goddaughters, but I wasn't in any shape to eat or even go out in the pollen world.  So that was disappointing.  But through it all I have stitched on and off.  As you can see..

And now for Max, who had birthday yesterday and he is 5 years old!  All I have to add now is the child of --- and it's done!

So that brings you up to the last two weeks. Well the first week in May I was finally feeling myself again, and so I spent the time just getting some house stuff got up. The week after Mother's day, Paul was off for some Dr appts and some little house trips that required both of us.  We now have a new storm door for the front and  mulch got put around.  We also went to Arlington National Cemetery to check on my parents grave site, not the most fun thing to do, but I also had some others I needed to pay  my respects. 

Well that's about it, have to get back to some other things, but I will be posting regularly now, and I will be visiting some of your blogs as well.
