Flu and Sewing

We have been sick around our house. My husband is the only one to not be sick. I don't know how he has avoided it, but we are thankful he has. I decided that I needed to have a round of the FLU. I tested positive for just the FLU, not the Swine flu. LOL After 2 weeks of being sick, and starting on round 2 of antibiotics, I am ready to see the end of this! I have not been this sick in 14 years. Always fun keeping my blood sugars in control when I am sick. It is not good to have your blood sugar meter read 39. No, that is not good at all!

My view recently...several times.

We have had a fun project we have been working on here.

We have friends that are going to SIERRA LEONE in November as missionaries. The ladies at church worked on making jumpers for girls in Sierra Leone. I wanted to make sure there were something for the boys, also. So with some help from a couple ladies at church, and my family. We worked on making colorful shorts for the boys. We made a pocket for each pair of shorts that is made with the 5 colors of the Wordless Book. The Wordless Book is something that Laura will be using to teach the children in Sierra Leone about their need for a Saviour. It was a joy to be able to do something I LOVE to do....SEW... for something so wonderful!

Aimée and Todd helped to feed the drawstrings through when

they got home from school on Monday night.
Wordless Book pocket!
Cindy Jones and her daughter, Annie sewed the strips
and ironed them for me to make the pockets! A HUGE HELP!

Shorts for Africa.....
Pray for those that will get them, and hear the GOSPEL
from Steve and Laura Holt!

It is 1 am, but I have happy helpers!
Love their willingness to help me out when I get the urge to do projects like this!
