New profile pic: this is Katie's favorite picture from the Irish Dance Feising days.

That banner is from Mom and Dad's college years at Murray State. Left: Dad in Pershing Rifles uniform and rifle at attention. They performed with their rifles. Right: Mom and Dad at a Fraternity/Sorority dance.

The first of the band photos from St. Patrick's Day gigs are in... As you can see, Wm is so happy to be wearing a Minnie Mouse bow.

I just read that my favorite band teacher from Blue Springs Junior High passed away on March 12th.

Can I be a toddler and throw a knock down/drag out tantrum. I am tired of keeping a stiff upper lip for all the Feb and March losses this year and still mourning Mom's from 24 Feb 23 to her bday 3/14

I'm seriously one bruise after another. I have a bone bruise by my ankle and carpet rash on my knee. I take a blood thinner.

The second picture was Toffee's back toes taken this evening. It will scar.

I have a CT scan and appt soon. I'm tired of looking like I MMA every night.

Tomorrow (March 14, 1949) would have been my mother's birthday.

In the rays of the sun, I feel your caress.
In the birdsong, I hear you praising the new day.
In the garden dirt, I feel you lessons.
In the multi-faceted fauna, I see your soul.
In the goodness of your recipes, I feel your love.

Next up is a gorgeous picture of my 99 yr old grandmother at her home in Whitlock, TN, and her physical therapist, who drove up from Memphis, 2 1/2 hrs, to visit and give her a session.

On the left is my aunt's bridal pic, and on the right is Pepa, who died in Nov 2002, 52 1/2 married.

Couple of posts: you know you're not doing so hot when the nurses at the orthopedic office tell you they are getting you a wheelchair.

Even trying to be careful, I went over my pacing for the day by almost double. The life of the disabled.

My husband @billthetailor.bsky.social is in a traditional Céilí band. They are well known in Irish circles around here. We have a sewing business that's over 20 yrs old, but we are changing over to embroidery. This design is an original logo, and embroidery for the band. I'm excited to share it.

Some long-term friends surprised me with this stamped leather wallet and adorable multi-layer leather owl. The inside has plenty of room. The designer is "loungefly."

I had a new "Chala" cardinal wallet, but I have to use the owl one! Bless our friends.

On April First, our given date due to adoption, this beautiful girl will be 1 yr old. Her name is Nyx, the Greek Goddess of the Night and Chaos. And she lives up to her name.

I want to share my husband's latest logo and embroidery design. He made it for his band mates and himself to wear at a gig last Saturday. They are a traditional Irish Ceili band. @leapinglemur.bsky.social

I haven't posted in several months, and I can't give you a good answer as to why. I have stopped posting on everything except FB and messenger for family reasons.

I want to share an original embroidery design of the Tree of Life.
