Decided to start Ms Daisy a “Go Fund
Me” page. For her TEETH a good cleaning. If anyone could
donate it would be greatly appreciate. Just click on word “Teeth”
in capital letters.
Please let other know.
I meant LaWalla at Under the Sun for
some coffee. We decided to go look though the fabric shops we have 3
in Bonners Ferry.
But to fine out she worked I believe
was 10.5 hours on Thursday, with Liz and I already done 3 hours. So
that left 2.5 hours for Liz. The state gave us 15 hours a week with
her.
So Regis had 4 hours left for week. So
LaWalla took Liz to do a little shopping. Once LaWalla drop off Liz I
took those two yard selling.
So I believe we all did pretty good.
Regis got some Toys, and one thing Liz found was a metal detector.
And some clothing.
I was mostly looking for fabric to do
locker hocking with LaWalla this fall. So I found three different
pieces. Because it was later in day the lady let me have it for half
off.
Then also at that sale I got some
books. Two on quilting and one on rug making.
I still want to do a quilt. But one
thing I need is a sewing machine.
The window covering was at a rummage
sale at our local middle school, which was by donation and I gave
them dollar.
But some sale over on the North Side I
found this interesting kitchen gadget. It to scape something not sure
what. It only fifty cents.
LaWalla and I decided we would like to
go to a few quilt shows in 100 mile radius. The three states I
believe we will visit is IDAHO, MONTANA, and WASHINGTON.
I heard there a pretty big quilt show
at the Spokane EXPO and FAIR.
Work went real well. I would like to
see Liz get into a better place. Her land lord is a pud. She pays her
rent of $400 a month for some tiny cabin. Which doesn't include
utilities and place isn't well insulated and the bill in winter I
would guess be outrages.
Darling little place on creek. But she
shower leaks, sink won't drain, window crack and won't open. She ask
the land lord to fix these items and never have. It was an old resort
and every month they have to test the water.
Plus the septic system keep backing up.
So I ask her if she would like me to
pick up a local Habit for Humanity housing application. And she
would.
Murphy been washing bedding and
furniture. I believe he and I will wash up some of the boards for our
deck tomorrow.
And pick up around the place a little.
Sunday Bart and his Father in Law is going hiking on Burton. They
stop by afterwards.
I got out a crochet project I haven't
quite finish. I'm doing a swifter cover. Which I will be sending it
to Carrie.
She got a new Care Giver and Carrie get
90 hours a month. But down in Oregon they pay there care giver $15
and hour. If I'm doing personal care I get $12.43 and hour. The state
haven't gave us a raise in 2 or 3 years.
I shouldn't complain. There company
pays under $9.99 an hour.
Well just got to get out the yarn
needle and finish up the swifter cover and mail it to Carrie. They
lost there little Chihuahua Sweetie she was 15 years old.
Coffee is on

ReplyDeleteHi Dora - I love to crochet too! My sister is the quilter; she patchworks and quilts all by hand stitching - says she prefers it. That kitchen scraper tool? It's for nutmeg! yup, it's perfect for getting those nutumegs ready for the seasonal cakes &*> Before I retired, I was also doing aged care and care work is paid the lowest, yet demands heaps. We get to love our clients though, eh? Wishing you the best for raising funds for Daisy. Have a good weekend. YAM xx
...PEE ESS... you need to have the link below as your connector Dora - the one you have given is your sign-up page as a fund me subject.

I would have put it as a link - but realised that for some reason your comments are not accepting html syntax which is why you couldn't use my last attempt at that!
Cheers, YAM xx
The kitchen scraper thing could also be a cheese grater, for finely grated cheese over pasta dishes, or even for chocolate to decorate a cake or something.
ReplyDeleteIsn't there a tribunal board for renters? where they can fill out a form for complaint if a landlord doesn't fix things to a habitable standard?
$400 a month sounds pretty cheap to me, things are so different in Australia. My kids pay just over $300 a week!
Huh, our kitty needs oral surgery, too!
ReplyDeleteI would highly encourage you to pursue quilting. I've been doing it for about 25 years or more. It's my therapy!
You were looking for a sewing machine a while back, weren't you?
ReplyDeleteThat Better Homes and Gardens book looks familiar. I think I have a knitting one done by them.
