Still at it and going strong. I took  paperbacks, magazines and craft stuff, along with Bill's and my old glasses to the library yesterday and donated it. I have a lot of hardback books to take Monday. I got a lot done yesterday but there is still a lot to do. You would not know I have taken anything out of my craft room other than to clean off the bookshelf.  Actually that is all I've done in there. Going to take a break today and go to grandson's basketball game.

I have one more gift to share today. I am truly overcome with gratitude from all of you for your gifts, cards, comments and well wishes during this hard time. This was a wonderful surprise package from another blog friend who I hope to meet someday. She sent a tin of tea, beautiful candle and two Penny Black stamp sets. The stamps are just gorgeous and someday if I ever get things back to normal (well, better than normal) I hope to make a card with them. She is just the sweetest. Be kind to one another and you all are.

So glad you're taking a break today, Brenda--you deserve it! It's wonderful your sons & grandkids are close by so you can do things like go to a basketball game! I know my folks missed out on a lot because my brother & sister weren't here with their families. Such a sweet friend to send you that lovely gift & I know you'll make great use of it!
