Small town living...
Had a beautiful morning, changed back to Standard Time so that helped the 7 AM check in time.

No cards this time...was a busy week.  My 96 yr old Aunt passed away unexpectedly so one night, we attended a wake and prayer service and Saturday the funeral.  The good thing was she had truly lived a wonderful, full life, always busy and usually always helping her church and community.  A farm girl all her life, a country school teacher, a mother of 2 sons, and when my uncle died 34yrs ago she remained on the farm and kept it in tip top shape. She always was baking and sharing her goodies.
We got to visit with many relatives and friends from Arizona, Florida, N. & S. Dakota, Minnesota, Illinois and all parts of Iowa. Will always miss her, but she is no doubt enjoying a Family Reunion in Heaven and truly at Peace. 

I also had a good friend, die of lung cancer last week and her husband died suddenly a few days before. They were not that old, and she was always so full of life...had the cutest little Antique Shop in Czech Village a few years back, so will miss the well wishes at Christmas, but will have the fondest memories of our fun times.

Lots to do this week...Will find out more on my Dad's tests and see if he can have the hip replacement.  So will be back with some more creations and excitement at a later date. Have lots of paper work to catch up on. And so real excitement around the corner.  Stay Tuned.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great week...I know I will..
