Linky Tuesday August 1st
Welcome to another Linky Tuesday at Freemotion by the River!
Share your quilts, pictures, recipes or other posts with everyone!
Last week Billie from BillieBee’s Blog shared the beautiful flimsy she pieced. Her goal was to just piece one row and she ended up piecing the whole thing! Congrats Billie! Do you make quilting goals? I know I do and it really helps.

Believe it or not…….
My dad came home on Sunday! Luckily his pain stayed under control on the drive home, by time we got close to home my dad said “Boy is that a long drive!”. Tell me about it! LOL
Sadie was in seventh heaven when she saw him! Once we got upstairs in his room she couldn’t wait to jump up on the bed and lay with him. I think he was tickled to see her also.
Between Builder Bob and Papa ChooChoo……..Sadie is having a tough time deciding who she wants to be with. She has no interest in me once again.
He is doing a lot better than we thought at getting in and out of bed and had no problem at all doing the 14 steps. The catheter is still in and his wound has to be changed twice a day still. A visiting nurse is coming today so I’ll find out more about that. Tomorrow I take him to his regular doctor and on Thursday he goes to the Pain Clinic. Both places are close to Manor Care where he did his therapy……back to the cities.
Hopefully they can figure out something other than pain killers for the pain. Thanks for all of the precious comments that have helped me through all of this!

Oh, well PTL for your father’s homecoming! You are such a good daughter Connie! I am so happy Sadie is there to help bring him cheer and warmth!
I’m happy to see your Dad is home again and things are going better than expected so far. Hopefully things will continue that way. Too funny Sadie is ignoring you again now that he’s home.
So glad dad is home and safely ensconced in bed with Sadie to watch over him! Praying for him and for your health as you care for him and shuttle him back and forth for doctor appointments. I know he will rest better at home with your loving care!!!
It is probably good for your dad that Sadie likes to lay with him. Hope all continues to go well.
So sweet of you to show my top. I’m working on the borders this month. Glad you Dad is home and doing better. Tell him Hey! from Texas.
Happy to hear your Dad is home. I’ve been through your chapter of life. It is challenging, but worth the time & memories. I love your linky. Everyone that joins is so inspiring as well as your blog. Love the Red Work Quilt. What a great way to include some red work.
Glad to hear your Dad’s home-a blessing in itself-all will be well!
That is terrific new, Connie. I am sending best wishes to him and lots of hugs to you.
It was a difficult time but now you can relax because he is back home 🙂
I am sure it is wonderful to have our dad home. I hope his pain is subdued long term.
I just love your linky party and participate whenever I havae something to post about. Thank you!
Sadie will bbe such a comfort to your dad as he continues to recover. Safe travels as you go back and forth to doctors and such. I do hope there i something other than horrible pain meds. Healing Energy continues along with Prayers Sweet Connie…you are such a good daughter. <3
He looks so relaxed, so I’m sure he is very happy to be home finally. And Sadie looks like she is guarding him. So sweet of her!
Wonderful news!
So glad your dad is home. Looks like Sadie is going to take good care of him. She’s bound to lift his spirits.
So glad you got him home, I think he looks relieved to be home. He’ll probably heal faster with Sadie by his side for company! I hope all goes well for all of you.
There is nothing like a dog at your side to ease stress. My wishes are all good for him, for you, and for the doctors to figure out the best care. I’m sure he’s delighted to be home.
Am so glad to know your Dad is home & feeling better. It will still be a long road to full recovery but he has started. Just remind him (and you) when you both get frustrated with little progress. Prayers will continue for healing & recovery
Hi Connie,
I am SO glad to hear that your dad is home and is doing slightly better. I sure hope they find the root of the pain. He looks tired in the picture, but I love how Sadie is right there. I’ll bet she will stick closeby. ~smile~ Roseanne
