Comments!



A large tree fell over with a mighty crash, half a block from our home.  We are all grateful that it fell toward the street!  If you can zoom in, you can see the little people on the left side of the picture. The homeowner is actually one of my heart patients, for years now.   We have had a lot of rain, which loosened the ground around the tree...and we saw very little root system supporting this gigantic oak.  




Lucky is helping me today, with dusting and playing with the chandelier.  He is so much fun!!  He is up on the dining room table, the stinker!!








The art...and the artist.  Hee!!!  He had such fun with my big stitch quilting thread!!







 And some quilting content!  I am sewing some of my 2.5 width pieces, for a simple rail fence quilt.  I find these old fabrics to be like old friends, coming around to visit.  I love them!!! The inspiration of this is a lady who presented to our local quilt guild.  I loved her on sight...just a sweet, darling lady!



Here is her website.  She made a quilt like this, too, and I have made some in the past.  Time to sew another one, and it is so quick to complete!

***************************************************************************

HEY!!  I think I fixed my comment problem!!  Would you be so very kind and honor me by commenting on this post, so I can see if the comments are coming to my email once more?  Thank you so much!!

Hello Julie, I don't know if I've ever commented before, but I love reading your blog and have done so for years. Thank you for sharing your notes: quilting, nursing, or otherwise. I really appreciate it.

That tree is huge - so glad it went onto the street - with nothing under it at the time! Lucky is beautiful, cats are such fun they so enjoy playing - much like lots of humans. Anywhere they aren't supposed to be that's just where they want to go. We've had end to end rain in England this winter, now we have sunshine and a north to north east wind instead - not sure if that's an improvement. I had fears that my large cherry tree might fall it's been so wet. So far it seems solid. Love the blog, Elaine in UK

Hi Julie! I've been following your blog for years. You seem like such a caring and generous person. Love your nursing stories and your quilts! Suzanne

Donna said...

How sad that big, old tree fell. Glad no one was hurt. Lucky is adorable even if he’s a little naughty!

Nancy said...

Love your posts.

abelian said...

Yes, comments are definitely working! I’m so glad the tree fell toward the street. I worry about that, too, living among large trees in hurricane country. And I love the photos of Lucky enjoying his life. Dot in NC

How unusual for an oak tree to be felled. They are usually deep rooted. Thankful no one was injured and no structures damaged. Did you lose power? Your kitty is frisky isn't she (or he, I don't recall).

I think the rail fence quilt is going to make someone very happy - scrap quilts are so cheery. Too sad about the three falling. I'm glad no one got hurt.

Loris said...

Lucky is so adorable :-) Hugs!

Kristy said...

So nice to see you stitching and having such excellent help! :-) What a cute kitty! Love your new project. K- lkw2x6-apq@yahoo.com

ButterZ said...

Wow, that’s a big tree. Yes,lucky it fell that direction.

Nann said...

Blocking the street is certainly preferable to smashing through the roof! A nearby guild hosted Diane via Zoom last month and I attended the next day's Zoom workshop. I was a participant it a Quiltmaker project that she supervised. It was fun to meet her in person (sort of) after all these years.

Yes, it's fun to revisit fabric that has been resident in the studio for a while.

from western Nebraska - hope I'm coming thru! Glad you likely figured out the fix.

I'm glad that your commenting "issue" seems to be resolved!

It was an amazing day for me two weeks ago today as Bob came back to me. My husband has been away with another woman for the past 3 months and he neglected all his responsibilities as i had to pay for bills and the burden was too much for me to carry alone with my 4 year old child. I came in contact with Dr Guba online and I saw reviews of how he helps bring back lost love. It was just 48 hours after he had told me he casted the spell to bring Bob back and it came to pass as I had promised .

I never imagined I would tell a story like this, but after three long years of separation, I reached a point where I desperately wanted my family back together. I had read several testimonies online about Dr. Ola and how he had helped people restore broken relationships, and even though I was skeptical, something pushed me to reach out. To my surprise, the moment I contacted him, he listened with patience and understanding. For the first time in years, I felt hope again. Within 48 hours of following his guidance, my ex-husband reached out. He returned home, apologized to me and the children, and admitted he had made mistakes. Seeing my kids’ faces light up when their father came back was something I will never forget. I came across Dr. Ola through people who shared their experiences about receiving help and guidance with relationship and family issues. I’m grateful I took that step, because today my home is peaceful again and we are rebuilding our lives with love and understanding. If you want to reach out to him, here are the contacts shared in those testimonies:

I vowed from the beginning never to be a cheat and stood my ground to ensure I built a happy home but unfortunately my wife never trusted me enough. I wandered for months trying to get her back and sought help from various sources including her family intervention but never yielded success. I came in contact with Dr Ilekhojie who I doubted at the earlier stage when i got in contact with. I had to keep hope alive and complied with the procedures just the way he explained everything to me. He assured me of her return with 3 days once he is finished with his reconciliation ritual. It was the third that when she called that it dawned on me that everything Dr Ilekhojie said was true because i earlier met people who promised but failed. I am telling everyone about Dr Ilekhojie and his kind heart for helping people. Call/whatsapp +2348147400259 or his Website https://reconciliationritual.online

I gave it all i had to make it work in my marriage but he still left me and our kids. His family fought for me and still nothing changed and he left broken and sad. I manage to keep going on with the hope everything will get better for us one day and he will be back to you. He is a great father to the kids and i had great belief i will see him return back to us. I was lucky enough to got in contact with Dr Hope who indeed knew how to fix the problem and he did and to my surprise, my husband came back home to me. I am still amazed how it was possible but indeed this true. The result of his work is assured to manifest after 48 hours. My husband returned and i know better Dr Hope is truly a honest man anyone can trust. He is good in his job of fixing problems between partner and have them get back together again. You can read about his works on his page: https://isikolo-temple.com, or might as well text him via WhatsApp on: +2348118045454. Email him drhopespiritualhome@gmail.com.

My marriage with my wife was all blissful till the day she walked away and never returned. I was broken and helpless and so many loved ones came through for me to join forces with me to resolve the misunderstandings i had with her but nothing was effective. She left me and our boys and before I could get to know anything else about her, I was told she is presently with an Asian man and I knew that I had to fight to win her back to us. I had to reach out to SPIRITUALIST AGBOR and he came right on time to help me fix the problems. I was made to understand the procedures on how everything I wanted will duly happen and I complied. SPIRITUALIST AGBOR was hastened to fix the problems in my marriage knowing my wife was about to be taken wrongfully and just as he promised, the result of his work manifested and my wife got back home to us. I can't thank him enough for everything. You can contact him via email:spiritualistagborspellhome@gmail.com
