it has been a while since I've been here - seems like I just never think about it - try to keep busy with other things
I filled the pulpit a few weeks ago, it went pretty well - I get to do it again on the 22nd, I am going to talk about prayer but haven't started getting it on paper so I really need to be working on that 
So much has happened since I was last here - mom was dx with cancer (stage 4) she had surgery and has had chemo, but it doesn't sound good - dad is in the hospital now with pneumonia, not sue how that is doing, hope to go see him yet today - our son and most of his family moved to Germany, he retired from the Army and got a government job over there - things are always changing 
My MS has progressed some or maybe it is just the weather that makes me think it has (I hope and pray that is the case)  I still make quilts when I can and am working on sweaters for Christmas gifts - the plan is to make everything this year - we have made some jams and jellies from our fresh fruit this year - all the berry bushes and fruit trees had beautiful crops 
We I'd best get busy - I'll try to remember to come back more often
