There is not a whole lot to report this
week. Most of the week has been spent
getting a customer ready to go to Texas
A lady on Facebook did contact me to do some
embroidery for her wedding. She wants
the groomsmen’s’ names embroidered on the cuffs of sleeves. She is using the sleeves as gift bags. How cute is that? We will also be embroidering handkerchiefs
for the girls. I’ll meet with her on
Monday morning. This should be a fun
project.
It turned out a good thing that we didn’t begin
working on the bowling shirts. The
lovely bowling ladies changed their minds about the design and colors. Now I’m waiting on a final decision.
The peas have sprouted in the garden but not a
lot of other things sprouted. We should
have at least 30 sugar snap pea plants growing out there. Yummy.
Today has been such a lovely spring day. All I want to do it get out in the
garden. Maybe tomorrow will be garden
day. The dogs are enjoying the weather
as well and are staying outside more than usual. The cats, of course, don’t care one way or
the other. They are in their own royal
world.
A friend of mine bought a cute little house on
the beach with the intent of renting it.
When it is not being rented, she planned to spend some time there. Before the closing on the house was final she
had renters signed up through June. She
may not get to stay there at all, at this rate.
That was a really good investment.
My mama worked until she was 90 years old. She, of course, had a career as a legal
secretary until she retired. Then she
and daddy bought some quadraplexes in New
Iberia
I am my mother’s daughter because I have no
intention to ever stop working. Cajun
Stitchery is my retirement job. It
certainly isn’t as stressful as my career jobs were. I sure hope that Cajun Stitchery lasts until
I’m 90 or more. Sitting on a rocking
chair, rocking my life away is not a pleasant thought for me.
George’s father will be 90 this year and is still
going strong. We were concerned about
him after Mom passed away earlier this year but he seems to be hanging in there
and bidding his time. George talks to
him at least three times a week now.
A few days ago I received a delightful surprise
phone call. It was my son, Hank, calling
to let me talk to my great granddaughter, Kayla. I know that everyone heard her say, “Ba, ba
ma, ba…” I heard her say, “Hello, great
grandmother, it is such a pleasure to talk with you.” They thought she was biting and drooling on
the phone but I know she was blowing kisses to me because I received each one
of them.

Although we now have a new Pope,
the following was provided to me by Paulette Provost before the Pope was
chosen:
Did you hear about the Italian Cardinal
that is on the ballot
for possible replacement of the Pope?
Cardinal Cicolla is said to be
the top man for the job.
I do not know that much about him.
Do you?
I was told that
if he should get the position in Rome
he will be known as
Pope Cicolla!
