    busy day today...helped at the church lunch and then dentist for temp filling! home for snooze befre seeing R. Managed to frame my tapestry myself for the first time ever and quite chuffed with it..for a friends new house! Mum coming to stay tomorrow for few days - will be a squish but we'll manage. Shes in need of tlc as had a fit the other day so is now off the road for a year and is understadably gutted! At least she'll have to slow down a bit! At 72 shes realising that her mind is willing but body slowing down! The quilt is wrapped and cant wait to give it to her!
