Hankie/Memory Items
I know I posted this pic already but
I wanted you to notice the
hankie in my hand.
My friends from TN Tiny Weddings
came to visitation and brought
me that. She said that someone
gave her one when her mom past
and it was helpful to have it to hold
on to. She was right. I balled it up, pulled
it through one hand to the other, wiped
tears...
I found this a few days ago.
Although I can wear my moms shirts
I have enough of my own but
I want to take some of
her clothes and make things
for the great grands.
since they are all young
except Caleb I thought I would
make them dogs.
She loved her dogs.
For Caleb I will probably make
him a pillow.
For my nieces and nephews I
thought about something like
these (below).
My daughter liked this one
better.

My son has Calif blood in him!
😁😁
This is him with TN
temps.
He could not understand how I could
sit on the deck in a shirt and just my
socks while he smoked.
I told him it was cause I
was used to it and since he
had not been in TN in the
winter months since Jan
2007, his blood was thin.
Cory flew back to Calif. on
Friday and on Sunday I woke
to this.
So per my norm I wrote a
note in the snow to
Cory and Brit. Only
when I tagged Brit on FB
I told her to tell Cory he
left too soon.
Well my not so thin TN
blood and going out barefoot, esp
in the snow, being worn down with
all that had been going on...
I woke Sunday morn
with a sore throat.
Yesterday (Monday) it
started moving into the chest so
I went for Sudafed, my go to.
This morning I woke with
100 temp.
Now, floating feeling head, pain,
stuffy nose and ears, tight
chest and a slightly sore
throat.
I think I just got too worn
down.
Cory is an animal lover. He
never meets an animal that
he don't like and on the
flip side, that don't like him.
He won them all over.
I walked in the bedroom and saw
this.
Apparently the cat that don't
like to be petted seemed to
like Cory too.
That look on her face is
like, " what mom, I didn't
do anything"!!!

Interesting tid bit about how hankies were "born".
Sorry about the cold, but I can see how you caught one. A funeral is a way for germs, from all over, to spread out and infect various people.
With that high temp, don't you think you should see a doctor????? You might need something more, than over-the-counter...

I love the idea of making things for the family from the clothes. I don't sew but I so wish I'd had that done. I even kept some of dad's shirts just in case. Maybe one day. Or maybe incentive to learn.
You've a lovely family.
I love your gift ideas. Beautiful.
Have a fabulous day and week. ♥
