Well, I am down here in Montana visiting family this weekend. Plus the state fair is going on and so I am lucky enough to attend that. My DH is on a new medication that seems to be working somewhat but with Cancer, one can never tell. My dd is going mad over that fact that there is a fair going on. She loves animals. Everytime I pass a pasture and there are cows grazing, she demands that I honk at them. Some times, we get noticed by a bull or two but there are other times they just don't give a cud. I amuse her by some of my cow jokes, like, what do you call a cow that has no legs.....ground beef! Ok, that one was corny but who cares, cows eat corn! I better stop for now. I am driving myself crazy in this heat and trying to think and type at the same time.

Here is the doily I sent to Crafterlady46....compared to the one she sent me, mine fades in comparison
Here is a pic of my DD with the Swan doily that I received today.
Today, I receieved my doily from the doily swap on Crochetville. I was blown away!!! My swap partner made a beautiful swan doily! It was breath-taking! My own DD loved it and wants it for herself....my DH even was impressed by the beauty of it. I feel so blessed that I received this and feel like my doily fades in comparison! I found out that my DH has stomach cancer and he needs medication because he is in the early stages. His mother passed away in 2000 from Leukemia and cancer does run rampant in his side of the family. I am just praying that he will overcome this. He also goes for therapy called the Bowen Technique which is supposed to help his fibromyalgia, scoliosis, stomach pain....I believe this will alleviate some of his pain and since I do know how to do foot reflexology, I was told to work his feet at night. Well, that is the time I usually do my crocheting. But I do love my dh so I think I could juggle my crochet schedule. What we do for love, eh?
