Things are very slow right now. Haven't had much time to make cards - our son has been here for the summer and is staying in my craft room. Seems like our social life is primarily visiting various doctors but guess it has been worth it as all reports have been good. Had a "craft/flea market yesterday in town and it was HORRIBLE. Thank heavens we were in an outside building so we had a breeze most of the day. It has been in the high 80's, low 90's for what seems like forever and NO RAIN. The poor farmers are really having a rough time. I do check in from time to time. Keep well everyone and cool.

I am still here also. Had a lot of work and of course the family vacation. But mostly work. I haven't done to much crafting been so stinkin busy. But want to get back in the grove. I want to start crocheting again. But I have just a terrible time. I can't make anything and what I do isn't straight. It is uneven and I just have a mess. Any help would be appreciated. If you could email me. melodylaw1982@gmail.com Thanks.

Hello Melody Sorry to hear it's not going well with the crochet. I gave up most crafts for just that reason. You can still drop by and chat and just share your time with us. I really miss being able to cut stright or sew a line or knit in more then a cone shape. I really would like to know if you find something besides a machine that does it for you . Hope to see you with a hello note once in a while. You don't have to craft to chat . From someone who understands the frustration of unwilling body parts toward crafts. Hugs

Just checked in and read everyone's comments. I think we have finished the round of doctor appts for a few months. The month of June, we had appts every Friday, month of July had follow-ups to the June appts, August I think there were 2 follow ups and both hubby and self had our physicals two days ago. Good to know that all those appts did us some good, as we both got good reports. My problems all stem from arthritis, hands, back, legs and feet - the rest of the body seems to be ok! I have been busy making cards, and I would post a couple, but I think you have changed how to post. Hope Vikki you are ok with the hurricane and hope everyone else is doing good as well.
Ginny
