Getting back to regular programming

Okay so I'm home and oh so happy to be back. The pup is back sleeping next to me on the coach and was almost as happy to see me as I was to see him. Thanks again to everyone for their kind thoughts about my dad. All things considered, he's doing good and we take one day at a time. He's going to a luau tomorrow at the VFW so I'd say he's feeling okay right? It's about making the most out of every day people and we forget that too often when we get caught up in the busy-ness of life. Enjoy the moments - I'm trying to.
I had a much longer lay over in BWI so I got a very satisfying amount of stitching done on Block 3. I really like how the pineapple turned out. I had to frog a little bit but nothing too bad. I hope to get a little more time into this piece this weekend because I got a blessed reprieve from my teacher last night - I only have to write 4 papers in 7 weeks instead of 5! Three down and one to go - Wahoo!

Sorry...I'm again out of the loop. Glad to hear your dad is well--a Luau seems like a good sign to me! Are you taking a class? So many papers, which is why I've not gone back to school. And lovely work on your Hawk Run design. I had better go and buy it soon since she won't be selling it after July! Why can't I seem to make progress on any of my Hawk Run designs?!

I'm glad to hear that your dad is doing well. A luau sounds like fun and if he's going he must be feeling a lot better. Love your progress on your block.

That's good news about your Dad. My mom will be 90 this year and she also takes one day at a time. And feels good doing so.
Nice progress on your HRH.

I do try to remind myself to live my life to the fullest instead of getting caught up in the daily grind and what brings you down.

That pineapple is fantastic!
