​How can it already be the second week in July?

Summer is dashing along much faster than I am.  It is MiMi Camp season and my two youngest grandsons in a variety of half day camps and with me.  We have been very busy dashing about and watching Paw Patrol, Star Wars, and working on art projects, and going to the pool, and Science Center. Morgan is two and goes like a whirling dervish until nap time. While he is tucked in I get a rest period and one on one time with Callum who turned nine last month.

We have had rain several times a week for the past three and the weeds have totally taken over my gardens. Someone needs to get doused in bug spray and get to work out there.  I could use a team but will see what I can do Saturday morning. 

I had mixed emotions on the fourth of July this year and found it difficult to celebrate as I have been feeling overwhelmed by the divisive political situation here in America. I distracted myself by designing a Justice & Mercy Sewing Case and have just put the pdf up on my products page. It is a bargain at $12.00. Now I better figure out printing costs and add the hard copy. My systems updated and it has been a challenge to figure out the changes. 

I also designed a needle book, 'America', and have included several patriotic songs and verses on it.  I need to get back to my Scottish Castle Etui and accessories now, but will stitch up the needle book model soon.

My heart breaks for the people who have lost family and friends and their homes in the horrible flooding in Texas and New Mexico. I'm praying for peace in Ukraine and Gaza and for help for those enduring famine around the world. We are living through some mighty hard times. Hold those you love close.

Hugs,
Cissy
