Up and Down

I hope everyone had a good week last week. The weather here in Florida has been amazingly gorgeous...much milder than last winter.

It's been an interesting week here. First, let me say thank you to everyone who wrote to say they're praying for my mom. She was doing badly in the hospital and the doctor recommended hospice. They sent her back "home" to the nursing home she's lived in for four years and she's improved a lot and was even taking part in "happy hour" a few days later (yes, they let the residents have a drink if dr. okays it). She was having a great time on Friday and looked like she didn't want to be interrupted when I stopped by for a quick visit. Earlier in the week her 89 1/2 year old twin got a friend to drive her over for a visit. We've been trying to get them together since the last time I drove Mom to her sister's house for their birthday. The week has sure been up and down!

I'm keeping this short because with all the above I have a lot to catch up on.

There were a lot of great charities mentioned last week in response to my question. Marian Hull is the winner of the Advance Reader Copy of Her Restless Heart, Book 1 of the new Stitches in Time series coming out in March. I'll have another contest next week for readers to win another copy.

Have a great week!

Barbara

    Barbara, I am looking forward to reading your new book. I'm not familiar with your writing yet, but I am learning to quilt, so it should be VERY interesting!
