I AM OK----

We did have a tornado warning last night--
and alot of us here on the 2nd floor did go downstairs--
forabout an hour--but the worse of it went around us!!!

But boy does my heart go out to those in the midstates--
who did lose everything and even that so many lives where lost!!!
my prayers and thoughts and good wishes go out to all of those that have lost homes, business's, and loved ones!!!
And I also worry about the four legged ones--
And some sad news here--
news that I knew was coming--
but you know how you just keep hoping that they will change their minds!!??
but she didn't--
Lil sister is moving back to SC!!!

So to cheer us up a bit--
here is a couple pictures of my garden--
and a close-up--
I love tulips--

and here is a peak at that quilt--

I did get it all basted today--one more down!!!
and I have started the Tis the season blocks for May--
one is done--the other one is started!!!!

Well--thats all for tonight folks--
Pray all of you are safe as well as your loved ones!

Hugs, from a sad "Di" and a sad "miss gracie"

I am happy that you survived the bad storm night. Sorry your loved one is moving -- you will make it, however. I have faith!

Di, I'm glad you made it through the bad night. I'm glad you are making such progress on all your UFO's! So sorry to hear your lil sis is leaving, but you know, you have lots of friends here!

South Carolina is a beckoning place ... I'd be there too if possible, Di.

These same storms went thru Md. & I was up all night watching because of all the tornado warnings ... several in area near but we are safe. Glad you are fine, too.

Have a beautiful weekend.
TTFN ~

Glad you are safe! We saw the terrible carnage on the evening news, I could hardly believe my eyes!!! There have been so many countrys affected by civil disasters this year, you have to wonder where it's going to strike next!

Glad to hear the storm wasn't too bad in your area. I can't believe how bad the weather has been across the nation.

I'm sorry Lil Sister has decided to go back to SC. I know you will miss her terribly. Maybe you can lock her in your apartment and not let her out? I'm sure Miss Gracie will help.

Hi Di & Miss Gracie, sorry you are sad but happy you were bypassed by the storm. Thanks so much for the lovely surprise of the mug rug in the mail. I love it, & so does Brun & Honey. You are a treasure, both of you! Tracee xx

I am happy the storm has passed and that you are okay. I am sorry about your sister moving to SC but what a wonderful state to visit when to go to be with her. I am sure she will scout all the fun places for you!

Your quilt is looking great. Hope you are having a wonderful weekend.

Carolyn
