Mom & Dad at his 90th party! |
Well, once again two months have passed by without a single blog. I do have a really good excuse though. My dad passed away December 1, 2010. He was 90 years old on August 23rd. He had started having lots of mini-strokes but I think he died from a heart attack. I saw him last on Friday after Thanksgiving. He was doing pretty good and his death was sort of unexpected. I really miss him but am doing well. I know where he is and I know that he is alive and so much better than any of us here. The house is so quiet without him there and I know that mom is sort of lonely. She went with us to Sevierville last week and stayed a few days at the condo. We went to a show at Country Tonite which was quite good. It was really nice to see her relax and get some good sleep.
SO........this year will be different as I had him around for a long time!!!
I have been knitting some though, trying to finish up some projects that have been on the needles for awhile. *sigh* There just isn't enough time to do all of the knitting that I want to do.
I recently have finished two baby blankets, 2 baby surprise jackets with another on the needles, and one hat. I still have my Evenstar lace shawl to finish and it is already time for the next Lord of the Rings Series to begin!
