Things have started quieting down here a little. A bit of a head/chest cold made it's way around the family, I've sent out tons of resumes and had several interviews that haven't panned out, the oldest son moved out last weekend in with his younger brother... the roommate bailed out so there was an open room, we had to put another old pet to sleep due to kidney failure so we are one cat less now and I am still catching myself looking for her. There have been cars breaking down and parts bought to keep them running, Thanksgiving spent at a dear friend's house this year, and I managed a little bit of stitching and got my Christmas crackers done and sent out to their new homes.
I'm feeling out this quiet empty space and seeing what to keep and what to toss, what new routines are starting to develop and the difference in things here.
Here's the two CQ crackers I made... some how I forgot to get a flat photo of the green/gold/red one.
The button tree is filled in with beads... green tubes with red seed bead ends.

Cool Work!!
Empty nest huh. Give me mine BACK!!! Seriously, quiet is nice, but I'm not sure I want the boys out there with less supervision than they have here, so noise is good.
I remember when my son moved out...tears....i remember when I had to send my beloved schnauzer Sherlock over Rainbow Bridge...I still look for him and tears still fall...You are in my thoughts...
Changes are hard.losing a pet, son moving out, feeling ill....oh dear. Sorry to hear this.
When my youngest moved out I immediately started cleaning out what was left and even pulled up the carpet to reveal a wooden floor underneath. Lol she came back later that night for a forgotten item and I had already turned her room into my studio. She said, "Mom! Are you even going to miss me?" Well of course but I had waited so many years for an art room. lol. Enjoy your new space and I am sorry for the loss of your beloved pet.
So many changes in such a short time! Hard to deal with at times, I'm sure. Sending you a cyber hug, and warm wishes.
