What a Week

This girl got her mission call.

This is a map of her mission, The California, Roseville Mission.

and the call itself.

This is the mess that my craft room was about a month ago.

I've really been at it, working on it for a couple of hours whenever I could.

It was in such impossible condition.

Here it is now, after spending 6 hours on it this week.

much tidier.

But I intend to put a couple of pieces of storage furniture here, instead of this pile.

At work on Wednesday, I decided to take this base cabinet,

and this upper cupboard together, painting the base to match the old green cupboard, and it will be put in the craft room to replace the cluttered pile of furniture that is there now, it will hopefully provide enough accessible storage space to keep the room tidier,.

More importantly, we found out that Trevor was in the hospital, with serious digestive issues, sepsis, and heavy intravenous antibiotics. Yikes

At work on Wednesday, I got to wrap up a huge vase, by cutting a custom, if irregularly shaped box,

After Dad got home from the temple we headed over to see Trevor at the hospital in AF.  He was pretty miserable.

I had book club at Sandy's that night.

There were actually 12 of us there.

We discussed the book Indigo Girl, which was a fictionalized true story that took place in the 1700s in South Carolina.

On Friday my friend Mary, who's camera shy, and I headed to California to stay with her friend Diana for the week.  She is shown here, at Dinner at Mary's Sisters house on Saturday evening, after we had spent the day antiqueing.  Her home and the meal were lovely.

Here is Mary's sister Lisa, who made a lovely vegetarian meal for us all.

 

The next day I headed up this walk on the Pasadena City College Campus to a flea market they have been holding since our Ashley was born. (1977)

I thought this guy's 'Hood Ornament' was interesting. I found a lot of books, and other goods that I will show you next week. If you can't wait, I'll be posting it on my Instagram Account later tonight, Flea.o.logy

After the market we drove over to Forest Lawn, where Mary left flowers for her mother.  It's a lovely cemetery.

They even have the local wildlife come in to take care of the floral tributes.

And while I was having all that fun, Trevor was getting better and better.

Maybe that's because of all the fun visitors he had.

Especially the tiredest one.

Trevor got out of the hospital in time to go to Penny's school play.

So much support.

She did a great job.

Hmmm

Taking their bows.

Way to go Penny.

Such supportive cousins.

Afterward they all went to dinner.

It was a great week, and we are all so grateful Trevor is feeling more like himself again. 

We hope that you are all healthy and happy.
