Christmas Day my brother fell, broke and fractured some ribs, deflated lung, and had internal bleeding. He did not go to hospital until the next day where they found all these things in emergency surgery.
Fortunately, he is feeling better, his ventilator was removed today. Hopefully in a few days he will be home.
I cannot imagine what parents with sick and hurt children go through. This is a grown man, I am 54 and it nearly killed me to see him like that! One thing, with this kind of incident, my empathy grows for others. The illness that my mom suffered did the same for me. Now this.
Lord, I need these lessons, I know I do, but I hate to have to learn them at my family's expense...I hate Satan, he is the one that comes to kill, hurt and destroy.
God will raise my brother up and make him healthy again and I praise His Holy Name! Thank You Heavenly Father!
I've worked in stoneware clay for the last five years or so. I don't consider myself much of an artist, a frustrated artist maybe, but I love working with clay and selling some pieces now and then is a real joy and blessing. Blogging on the other hand is so new it's painful, I really don't know what I'm doing here as you will soon see! But if you want to spend a few minutes looking around, feel free and leave a comment if you wish, just be nice, please! Blessings to you and yours!

Catching Up
Well, it did snow too much for me to go to the Humane Society last week, but I hope I can make it up this week and go another day besides Wednesday.
Dad has been gone for 33 years.
Drove the van in the parade at Pennsboro for the Humane Society Saturday night. I think they walked eight dogs and I know they had a good time.
Yesterday was a wonderful lazy Sunday and after out TV evangelist went off air I fixed breakfast and slept most of the day.
Have chores to do today and then some clay play--I hope!

Beads 2011
Sent my submission for BEADS 2011 today. A pair of Shard earrings and two buttons. I hope they can use them. They did not call for buttons, but maybe they will put them in anyway.
Planning on working the HS tomorrow, I pray it doesn't snow too much to get there.
We made a flying trip to Parkersburg today to pick up guitar pegs for Ruth's guitar. Rusty is restringing two of her guitars.
I made a couple sets of shard earrings tonight with a pendant to match.

Winter Weather
We are expecting bad weather for the next few days, snow and around zero cold. I hope things are going to be okay at the shelter, I won't be there until Thursday. And Fiber Arts is this week...maybe.
I hope to do some clay tomorrow.
My brother has been having anxiety attacks and he is worrying me. I try to be upbeat with him and I hope all he tells me is the truth, but I worry about him. Lord, please keep him in the palm of Your hand and give him peace that passes all understanding. Help him to clear his mind and to rest in You. I love him, he is my only sibling and I need him here. Thank you Lord!

Kitty Hammocks
Sewed for a while this afternoon making some more kitty hammocks for the Humane Society.
Russ wants to go to Parkersburg tomorrow, I need to write a list for groceries and things.
It has been very cold the last few days and I'm not liking it. I am getting cold again after not getting cold for several years. I haven't even worn a coat for the last four years in the winter and now I could sit in the house wrapped in a coat...not good!
Millie and Quincy play twice a day and they really tear it up in here. They are pretty good together, run and play, but seldom get mad at each other. I always separate them when we leave the house.
Am sort of frustrated with not selling many of my clay pieces. Don't know what to do about that.

Saturday120410
This has been a long day, but I really don't know why. I can't hardly wait to go to bed and that hasn't happened in a long time!
Caught up on a few loads of laundry since the the water line has been fixed.
I made a few beads a while ago. I added "sprigs" which I haven't done before.
Listened to Hard Rock line up all afternoon, heard some really good songs.

Unavoidables
Have had a couple of mishaps around the house this week. We had a huge water bill and found out there is a leak, so poor husband is out in the freezing weather with his bad knees digging and fixing the leak. I wish he would ask for help, but that is not his style so he is doing everything himself even if it is hard on him.
The car should be out of the garage and we get to take back the rental tomorrow I hope. Someone lost control of a grocery cart and gouged the side of the car. Bad scratches and one dent, but hopefully that will be fixed very soon.
I am planning on going to the Humane Society again tomorrow too. I am anxious to see how things are going, I know it is much better out there now than what it was! God bless those girls, they have really been working hard to clean up out there.
