About gobagese1

I was around nine years old, when I was taught by Grandmom.. She taught me to sew ,crochet ,and needle point. When I sew I am connected to her..even though ...she had passed. I love to read books. I love poetry as well! I am married and have three children.

Getting There

Getting There

Getting There

Today was a long day for me….

Today was my youngest daughter’s field trip to the zoo…

I had a fun day with her and her classmates….

I was going to blog last night but I was crocheting until I fell asleep on the sofa….

It is getting there…slowly but surely…

I am so relaxed that I forget about the time…..I don’t know how I still have the energy….

My hands are starting to hurt….

I am trying to take breaks between rows…

My cat ,Candy …She is 14 years old…

She tried to get my yarn…..It never fails that one of the cat’s will attack my yarn….

Let me know what you think of my progress….

Taking a Break

My yarn holder

My yarn holder

I took a break from quilting to work on my crocheting….

Since the yarn gets tangled …I put a straw on the loose end of the yarn so it won’t get tangled up….

Then I found a a baby wipe container and put the yarn in there to help with tangles and from the cats….four cats and two dogs…and ten fish….

This is Axle….

He is a Golden Lab …..

His father was a Golden Retriever and his mother was a white Labrador…

He is a big a baby….and thinks that he is lap dog….

He is over 88lbs….he whines in the car and tries to get in the front seat…

Does not like raw carrots….but loves peanut butter…

He loves to play with his squeaky toys and his rope…

He helps me when I am stressed or sad…

Today’s a better day

Today is a better day…..

Thank you, everyone for the advice….

I  did a lot today….

My husband and I went to get new shoes…

Then we went to Joann fabrics….I bought more fabric for the quilt.

Came home and did some cleaning….

I did my school work….and worked on the quilt….

I made meat cakes,mashed potatoes,steamed carrots,and salad……I forgot about the sliced cucumbers…

Cucumbers are my favorite….

Found out that my dog Axle,doesn’t like raw carrots… He turns his head like a little kid that doesn’t like a certain food.

Mad

I usually don’t discuss about other members of my family……

I am so mad right now…..

My brother and his family has been living in my house,because they had no other place to live….

It has been three years now…..

This part of my depression……

They are destroying my house….like they destroyed my grandmother’s house…

My grandparents belongings were in our family room….My brothers stuff was piled over my grandparents belongings…..

A lot of it destroyed now….

My dolls that my grandparents made…are missing

We told my brother that he has to leave many of times….He has a job….

He gives us money for rent when he feels like giving it…..

I am at my wits end….

This part of why I eat emotionally…..

Progress

I have made progress to the quilt…

I have four panel’s done….

Plus, I bought more fabric to add to the quilt….

I also bought more bobbins and thread….

I am almost out of white thread…..

Plus, it gave me  some time to myself….

Which I get little of….

I just realized that  I lost  five lbs….

Thinking

When I sew ,I am relaxed……

I can clear my head…..

As I was sewing the panel’s….I started to think…..

I need to go on a fabric run…..

I totally forgot about the fabric for the back of the quilt,plus I need more thread…

Now,I have more ideas in my head for projects in the future….

What to next is the question?
