Christmas preparations?

By -
Had a couple of rough days with my duodenal ulcer, this hasn't bothered me for months and I can't work out what I ate that flared it up, I'm happy to say it's much better today.I did manage to attend a meeting to discuss our Church Christmas Fayre last night. This year it will be held on 22nd. November, which seems a bit early I know but there are many people needed to use the same hall , someone has to be first.
Although there is a lot of work going into the organisation, the day itself always turns out well , both in monetary funds and companionship.
I'm now off to visit a sick parishioner in hospital , she's a wonderful old lady of 92 who has a great positive attitude to life, however I have heard that she is very sick so prayers are needed.

Christmas?? Are we already thinking about that? Where did the year go?? :-)

I'll send extra prayers for your parishioner, too!

Amy's Quilt Festival.

Over at Amy's blog there is an online quilt festival starting today and running for a week. As I have only ever made one quilt I don't have a lot of choice but as no judging takes place I thought I'd participate. Apologies to those who have already read the details of the quilt in an earlier post but I need to chronicle the it's making for the festival. It was about 2-3 years in the planning , as I was such a coward I really didn't know where to begin. The idea for the quilt was a request from my youngest daughter and not wishing to disappoint I immediately agreed. The material was duly bought and about 2 squares were sewn and that was it for at least a year!!! Then last Autumn I visited a quilt exhibition and when talking to a very talented lady just had to mention about 'this' quilt . She was very reassuring and said' as long as you stick to your pattern all will be well'. A pattern, what pattern? There was no pattern, I believed I could make th

Teaser Tuesdays

The rules are, Grab your current read. Let the book fall open to a random page. Share with us two (2) “teaser” sentences from that page, somewhere between lines 7 and 12. You also need to share the title of the book that you’re getting your “teaser” from … that way people can have some great book recommendations if they like the teaser you’ve given! Please avoid spoilers! Here is my teaser, 'A few steps away, an apartment building had been finished inside the ruins of what looked like an ancient theater, with modern brick and glass windows above rows of arches, the 'lawn' a series of pieces of fallen marble and stone, some of it intricately carved, just lying around like so. A small sign in multiple languages warned passersby about taking a souvenir ruin or two.' from 'A Friday Night Knitting Club novel Knit Two', by Kate Jacobs. page 220. Can you guess which country this describes? More teasers here.

This is this week's discussion We’ve all seen the lists, we’ve all thought, “I should really read that someday,” but for all of us, there are still books on “The List” that we haven’t actually gotten around to reading. Even though we know they’re fabulous. Even though we know that we’ll like them. Or that we’ll learn from them. Or just that they’re supposed to be worthy. We just … haven’t gotten around to them yet. What’s the best book that YOU haven’t read yet? I think this week's discussion could be closely related to my last post concerning the Daily Telegraph article on reading habits. However as I have already 'casted my vote' in the 'Telegraph' poll I'll concentrate on books on my bookshelf that I intend to read one day. The Poisonwood Bible by Barbara Kingsolver has been sitting on my shelf for years and it remains unread. There is no particular reason for it remaining so I just haven't picked it up, even though it has achieved numerous good r
