Good Morning Afternoon lol.  I have been working on a new quilt today and I think it's going to be a great quilt.   I am making this one for one of my daughter in laws for Christmas I sure am hoping I can get both daughter in laws one made,  I have been so sorrowful today I found out that my friend Duffy died this week after he had a terrible motorcycle accident last week no other motorist was involved thank God.  This man was someone who I have no memories of that he didn't have a smile on his face.  God bless his family and Jesus please wrap your loving arms around him and comfort him and his family.  Also this morning my friend Angi's dog passed away Sugar loved to talk on the phone and always told me that "she loved me" lol.   Blessings and comfort to her today also.

Today I want to feature my sister Nancy.  Nancy is the sister that is just older than me.  Only 9 years difference between the 2 of us.  Nancy is the comforter of our family.  She will do for family and friends before she does for herself.  Dave is her husband and is a truck driver.  Nancy takes care of the household and loves God.  She has opened their home for Bible Study she makes sure to have tea, coffee and lemonade for us to drink and plates for us to eat yummy goodies that the rest of us provide as well as whatever she makes (she's a phenomanol cook)  She has the heart of Jesus always being the one that has the solution to a problem.  Nancy is a beautiful person inside and out.  I love you Nancy.

Yesterday was my daughters first day of work on a new job.  She is another outstanding woman I'll tell you about another day.  Anyhow she texted me yesterday to say her first day was long and that her new boss told her to "hurry and learn fast because she was firing the girl training her today or Friday!!!!!!)  OMG no pressure there lol ,  Brandie said I guess I'll sink or swim.  I know my daughter will rise to the top just like wonderful cream.  Praise be to God for such a wonderful daughter that I have.

Well I'm going back to my sewing I can't do anything else until Joe gets home and we can finish my car!!!!!  I had an accident in July and did some front end damage and Joe finished painting it last night so now we can start putting the lights and fins back on I'll some photos later. 

Oh speaking of photos I have one of our new Neice Holly and she just so happens to be on her new quilt. lol  I can't wait to get my hands on her lol.  Well how could I write anything after that lol.  So I'll stop for today blessings to you and your family

TODAY'S TIP COMES FROM NANCY:  We are never guarenteed tomorrow so always remember that arguements and fights are going to happen.  Don't let them linger and cause pain to the ones that you really love and admire.  If you have a family member that you have gone on the outs with be the first to pick up the phone or go see them appologize wrap them in your arms have a good cry and say I'm sorry I love you.  Our family members can be gone in an instant leaving you with a case of shoulda, woulda, couldas when it doesn't have to be that way.
