post accident

Whew! That was a close one!!! Okay it was a bit more than close...we collided and I have 2 broken legs to show for it.  Praise God for all the bruises and breaks I am doing okay and at home not in a hospital or nursing home! My Volvo will not be returning home ever again... sad but true.. here are some "after the fact" pictures...





So this accident delayed me posting for a few days then when I retrieved my computer from the black bag in the back seat... I was unable to access my blog from Google... not sure why. But thankfully my resident sewing expert also knows how to get around Google! So it has been 9 days since the accident and now not only am I taking care of the 3 year old and 19 month old (now with more help than before) it is being done from a wheelchair!  Talk about a challenge!

My daughter and I are going to try to start selling our creations from home since I will be out of work for a minimum of six weeks and I only have 2 weeks of EIB and PTO combined to fall back on. I sew diapers and waterproof pants and I have been working on pull ups that can used at school for the 3 year old. My daughter designs kids clothes her private label "Simply Kids Clothing" focuses on clothes for kids not just downsized adult clothing.

To start out we may try to list on Ebay but we are still checking out all the options to include our own website.  So see you in a few hours or tomorrow!!!

The contents of this post are from early February. I was going to delete but thought more about it and decided to share. Sorry the pic's are sideways. As I sit at the table and look across to the counter in the middle of the room some call an Island, i bask in the silence that is now. Soon the island will be cluttered with items needed to make lunches and chaos will fill the silence as the house gets moving and kids get ready for school. There's only a few minutes until everyone else starts getting up. Today is hippotherapy for the youngest. The wind is howling right now so they may cancel it if it's too cold for the old horses they don't go out. It's too cold for this old horse! For 3 days we've been able to go outside without coats or sweaters or jackets. Yesterday the storm clouds brewed like they were going to dump an ocean in the yard I ran outside and grabbed seven batts of insulation and took them to the basement to save them from the rain. By

To be or not to be... that is NOT the question!

 It is the day before Thanksgiving and our plans have drastically changed. We will not be going to my daughter's home, and we will not be having turkey with her. I did manage to find a turkey and it looked smallish to me. Turns out it was only a pound smaller than the smallest one at the commissary. We will go for the bone density test this morning, and I will drop the dog off for groomer at my daughter's this morning on the way to the density test.  It might be a ham thanksgiving this year if anything at all. I am not complaining. I don't want to clean or cook as no one in this house even eats all the stuff. That was all yesterday and like everything in my life it changes hourly. We made it to all of our appointments and with the kids in tow! We did not get to any stores, because I do not do stores with kids if I do not have to. The dog got dropped off, the bone density test was done, the equipment for the sleep study got picked up, and 5 D tanks of oxygen. We even managed

Black Friday... White Snow

 It is the day after Thanksgiving and the ground is covered. Black Friday shopping is not something I normally do, so this is not an inconvenience for me. We went to my daughter's home for Thanksgiving and a much smaller group of friends and family were there. My son was not feeling well so we took him some leftovers on our way home. Because the meal was not here, I do not have to deal with the leftovers or the post meal drama of what to do with all the leftover food. But that means no snacking foods either... it is a no-win situation. I get to make fresh food though and that is a good thing. I just tried to go out and return a medical device and the roads were very icy. I decided it was unlike Dunkin' Donuts, not worth the trip. Not to waste getting as far as the General Store I did buy the kids some soda for movie night tonight. We already have lots of popcorn and still some candy available. Now to find a good movie. the dog is being lazy Instead of a good movie we found that
