catch up and Christmas Spirit

Wow, long time since I have posted anything, been a rough few weeks. Had the tumors removed from my stomach -- Benign fantastically, but several little tumors left.

Jim ended up in the ER, with pain in his back, numbness and paralyzed on right side. Heart attack was the first thought, but all is good on that scene. The doctors believe at this point he has a compressed disk that is causing the numbness. With pain meds he is surviving and refuses to stop doing anything at all. His MRI was Wednesday and now we await results and diagnosis

He did finish painting our home. He has nicknamed is Porter's Gingerbread Cottage. The main color is Cappucino Spice trimed in Buttermilk Cream Yellow. Looks awesome. Had to laugh though, we have sheds in the back, one needed painting, one is tan, one white. Well, the white and needed painting are now Cappucino Spice trimed in Buttermilk Cream Yellow.

I want to paint the table in the back the Yellow. and next summer, the plan is to paint the concrete a darker brown and paint around the foundation of the house.

We are hoping the work comes thru for new windows, doors, insulaiton and central heat. Awaiting news on that

Then we have a tight cute home.

Christmas fever has caught me. Will start working on quilts for the family and wall hangings.

Chorski is up to maybe 5 pounds dripping wet, he helped paint and ended up with speckles of both colors on him. Had problems keeping his nose out of the paint -- his face got washed a couple times a day.
