update, and progress

First, I'll show you the teeny little bit of progress that's happened on the hussif...


My daughter-in-love likes Nemo, so I couldn't resist putting one on her hussif.  Thank you Maureen for the pattern!!


Finally - an update about the shooting that took place last week - the police have apprehended the shooter which is a huge relief for everyone.  Our superintendent is still listed in stable condition and has a long recovery period ahead of him.  

Today the quote is from Audrey Hepburn..... "Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you'll find one at the end of your arm.  As you grow older you will discover that you have two hands.  One for helping yourself, the other for helping others"
