Okay... i turned 75 on tuesday and now i feel like i have turned the corner to "old" and feel bad as there are so very many that have not gotten to this milepost. and overall i feel pretty good really. This i took on Easter sunday... i wanted to feel like Spring, hence the flowery sweater... brian said i looked pretty spiffed up for staying home. just feel like i need to step it up a bit and stop sulking about like it is the end of the world. ah well, life does seem to go on, so we do need to make the most of it and try our best to live our best. right?

one of our quilt stores is going out of business and i feel so bad, but it is not economic they said, but time to retire. everyone deserves that i suppose, i just feel badly to lose another bastion of Bend. Now we just have one other store and the one in Sisters... and i only got material for xmas pillowcases, could not for the life of me decide what to get, there were still SO many choices, lots of women in there buying LOTS, but they all looked like they knew  what they were doing and had lovely choices of different materials, for huge quilts,  a couple were doing King sized ones... 

We are having a family wedding this summer and i am in the throes of getting something to wear.. had a dress all picked, then they no longer had it, waited too long making up my mind i guess, so had to start all over again, then the one i did get from Nordstroms has to have different undergarments, (black) so am trying to get those ordered... one company was out of them and would notify me when restocked, i am not patient enough for that, what if they don't come, so trying another company, but it is rather cool to be able to do this all right from my living room and order on line... if doesn't work have to go the hassle of returns, but so far, so good... have not decided about make up or not... all i have is so old, that it all needs to be discarded, but hate to get new stuff (it is SO expensive) just for one time, cuz i don't normally wear it... and maybe i won't this time either.... just some sort of cover and eyeliner, lip gloss i have .... maybe i am over thinking this whole thing.... BUT want a good presentation... may be my final one!!!

Take Care all and God Bless
