Mother's Quilt Treasury



"Dear old-fashioned quilts 
with your patches so gay 
You retain all the charm 
of an earlier day 
Like the old-fashioned garden 
our grandmothers grew 
Our love never wanes 
for them or for you." 











A quilt sewn together with utmost care 
quilted with love is a treasure to share.

Hopes for My Children .... To Climb Higher

The rung of a ladder was never meant to rest upon,

but only to hold a man's foot
long enough to enable him 
to put the other somewhat highter.
Thomas Huxley

Thankful for my Job !

alongside all my hobbies and play things.

My buddy brings late summer vegetables...

Small worries when my blood glucose is elevated.   I yearn to cook and bake.... to perfect my cooking skills.  But as such... my tasting and eating of an apple pie last night.  I guess it doomed me.  I tried to up // adjust my Lantus and my Humalog.   But Alas,  ## 214 am numbers  abt 6:30 AM

I'm arriving @ work earlier.  It's 9:25 and my reading has dropped to ## 72 mg/dl.  A bit of breakfast
