Warm Weather - Fast Week

 Shiloh, IL (Hi 79   Lo  59)  Note: Tornado outbreak in Texas

I didn't have anything on the calendar for this week, but I stayed busy all week. Yep, you guessed it Crocheting!  I now have more orders to do because what people saw from hospice then someone else wants it.  

The first three days while I crocheted I watched Youtube classes and interesting topics. It's better then any TV show although I did catch up on Survivor and Ghosts. 

My sister has left Florida this week. She sold the house from the fear of last hurricane. it made her think twice of being so far away in the summers and there's usually small repairs to do when she gets back in the winter that drove her to thinking she's done with it all. Her place had four people interested and it sold in four days from arriving in middle of October. She'll be back in Missouri today and I'll go visit her this next week to get the stuff she has for me. I'm glad to have her here.  (I'm one hour and half from her). 

The weather has been perfect 79 high, no rain, a couple days of clouds but I'll take it for November. Today (Friday) they're expecting severe weather to the west of us. We may get some rain but hopefully most of it will be to the west. It's the cold artic air hitting the warm gulf air. It's not a good combination. The next two days I'll be watching storm chasers. I love those guys, I wish I was younger I'd go with a couple of them. 

Thursday I worked at hospice and did a ton of stuff. I machine stamped 500 mailings which only took 25 minutes, that was fun. I love working there. 

This is a short post. Sunday I'm going to the O'Fallon high school craft fair which is huge, beyond huge humongous. I'll report that next week.  Frank came over after work for a visit. It's always good to see him. 

I have to do a bit of a rant, it's not something I normally do, but this is really nuts. I had a ring Jim bought me special in Arizona from the Indian reservation and it had 4 stones. One stone fell out.  An Indian place in Hannibal fixed it for me (sent it to a specialist they have to take care of stones) They got it back and they sent it to me. That's been two weeks and I still don't have it. They didn't do a tracer on it, why I don't have any idea, but I'm really bumming. That ring is so special, maybe there's still hope, but for only being 2 hrs away I doubt if ever see it again. I'm highly upset. I just knew it was going to be a challenge and very risky. If you send anything, get the tracker number for it. 

Here's a couple pictures of this weeks projects. 


I just wish pictures would make things look better.

Sorry you lost a keepsake. There are those special things that one never wants to lose. Good luck on the sister visit. I look forward to hearing about it. Best wishes.
