Morning all, we finally have what looks to be a full day of rain, had coffee on deck, so calming.

Pat, Stanley must have wanted your attention.. i shake my head, it’s a lot to take in, every day ,more is thrown on you..you must be exhausted after your day.

Yesterday morning Linda called at about seven and asked if she could come and work on a Halloween wreath for her daughter Stephanie, my goddaughter. I had some leftovers in a bag when Marie unpacked everything so they came to good use. Linda bought a hat and the legs in between the both of us we were able to do a wreath I did not do the mesh I had Linda do that the only thing I did was to secure the pieces onto the race and glue gun and some bats and spiders so that was a quiet day.

Once we finish Linda and I sat and talked for a bit and Cathy from down the street came for a half hour visit and left, 1/2 hr later she was back with a bag of boysenberries for Linda and i..my thoughts is make muffins are cook the with sugar and use as ice cream topping.

Sharon had invited me to turkey dinner at 5, i always say no to most invitations as by the time nightfall calls i am ready for bed but i accepted and it was nice, i was all worked up as my mom called just before i was leaving looking fir a fight..
Pheromones first words were “i hope you didn’t invite anyone i don’t like to this party, knew she was referring to her niece and hubby, i said i did, she went on to rehash conversations she had with them like 30 years ago, he told her the only good person had any brains in her family was Betty …i said mom think about it,if you were to only have a year or two left in your life do you mean to tell me you would waste them on a few I’ll spoken words said 30 years ago?? Yep then on to the list of who was coming and her comments on some of the individuals, i said ‘tell you what, if you feel you can’t be in same place as them stay home but i will have a party regardless..

Then she moved on to my brother Mike who rarely speaks to her but his wife calls everyday, sometimes he is in background commenting, she thinks it’s disgraceful and very hurtful..now he is retired they ride their spider all over, even 15 miles from her and don’t come over, i said that was something between her and Mike but to remember once she says Kim’s call aren’t what she wants but Mikes, Kim will never phone back…

She is famous in saying he said,she said, they said bit never says she said, 99% fibs I’d say.she said her neighbour wants to know what kind of kids she has that do not come over and do things for her, i got angry and said to tell her to mind her own F^[]ŁĄg business and better still give me her number and I’d tell her myself…by now she was getting to me.she said i told her i was a bad mother i guess when i was younger, understatement of the year.

Then on to poor Bernie, he is not well, can understand why he can’t help but the rest of us could…put my hand over my mouth at this point..

She went on to say, but her words were bitting how i spend a lot of time with Linda as she is more like a sister to me than Sharon..know this will get back to Sharon so i nipped input in the bud and told Sharon…

As she hung up she said enjoy YOUR family supper with Sharon…

I have to wonder how she has forgotten her past…she is a nasty, nasty woman but still my mom

Feel a tad better telling my tale of woe to you guys

Oops i lied, her comes the sun…
Friday i played with those 5” fall blocks, did not want to make anything that took a lot of sewing or quilting so did one of those block on top throws that ends up like a cotton rag quilt without the rag guilt cutting time.looks nice as a fall throw fir my bed..need one more bed throw so all rooms look decorated with fall.

Ziggy is laying lovingly beside me, he won’t like me tomorrow when i try to get him in a carrier to have his nails done.


Going to post part 1 here just incase Ziggy we’re to do same
