1st Printing. 950 pages. Published in 1994. Retrospective collection of the author's novels and short stories. The First Slipcased Edition.

The Slipcased Edition has the same ISBN as the regular trade edition. The Slipcased Edition is now rare. An austerely elegant production: Regular-sized volume format. Text by Sarah Orne Jewett edited and annotated by Michael Davitt Bell. Cream hard board slipcase. Printed to the highest standards on acid-free paper, utilizing sewn binding, closely woven rayon cloth boards, satin bound-in ribbon marker, and a page layout that is both readable and elegant. The book is guaranteed to last for several generations of readers and collectors (despite frequent and regular use, the estimated life span of Library of America Editions is 1000 years; un-used, they will last forever). Without DJ, as issued. Re-presents, in one comprehensive and elegant volume, all of Sarah Orne Jewett's ground-breaking achievement. Headlined by her masterpiece, "The Country of The Pointed Firs", one of the greatest American novels ever written. "Classics of American fiction, memorializing the traditions, manners, and dialect of Maine coast natives at the turn of the 20th century. In luminous evocations of their lives, Maine-born Jewett created startlingly real portraits of individual New Englanders and a warm, humorous, and compassionate vision of New England character" (Publisher's blurb). An absolute "must-have" title for Sarah Orne Jewett collectors. These titles are great books. The First Slipcased Edition was distributed to libraries and LOA subscribers only. None of the copies were sold to the public. As far as we know, this is the only copy of the First Library of America Slipcased Edition/First Printing available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright, a pristine beauty. A rare copy thus. One of the greatest writers of the 20th century. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER LIBRARY OF AMERICA TITLES IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 0940450747. Bookseller Inventory # 18597
Synopsis: All of Jewett's best fiction, including her three novels, "Deephaven," "A Country Doctor," and "The Country of the Pointed Firs," and 28 funny, satirical, and poignant sketches and stories. Set against long Maine winters, hardscrabble farms, and the sea, Jewett's stories of gruff, capable farmers and seafolk--and of the rewards and trials of family and communal ties--have a very modern resonance. This comprehensive collection reveals the full stature of the unjustly neglected writer Willa Cather ranked with Mark Twain and Nathaniel Hawthorne.
From the Publisher: The Library of America is an award-winning, nonprofit program dedicated to publishing America's best and most significant writing in handsome, enduring volumes, featuring authoritative texts. Hailed as "the most important book-publishing project in the nation's history" (Newsweek), this acclaimed series is restoring America's literary heritage in "the finest-looking, longest-lasting edition ever made" (New Republic).

A letter of congratulations is a considerate way to acknowledge the accomplishments of an honour student. Writing a congratulatory letter praises a student's achievements and inspires her to keep up with her current level of work. Following a few specific guidelines will help you write a letter that honours students' achievements and provides positive reinforcement that encourages students to work hard.
- Skill level:
- Moderate
Other People Are Reading
- 1
Plan to send your letter soon after the honour student's accomplishment. Finish the letter and send it in a timely manner. Lagging on sending the letter makes the congratulations seem less sincere.
- 2
Type your address in the upper right corner of the letter. If you are writing on behalf of the student's school or another organisation, use that address instead of your own. Type the student's address one line below your address, on the left side. Type the date of the letter two lines below the student's address.
- 3
Begin the body of letter by explaining the purpose of your writing the student. Reference the student's achievement directly without being vague. For example, you can write, "I want to extend my congratulations on your 4.0 GPA."
- 4
Continue the letter by further praising the student. Express your approval of her accomplishments and the significance they hold. If appropriate, include your personal experiences. Relate them to the student's accomplishments. Keep the length of the letter to one page.
- 5
End the letter by restating your original congratulations. Add a wish of future success and good luck.
- 6
Type your closing to the letter two lines under the body. Use a remark such as "Best Wishes," or "Yours Truly." Place a comma after the remark.
- 7
Type your full name four lines under the closing of the letter. Sign your signature above your name.
Tips and warnings
- Be sincere in your congratulations and praise without over-complimenting. Keep your praise simple and direct.
- Proofread your letter before sending it.

Leaders from the 3D printing industry have lamented in the past that universities' engineering curriculums need to offer more courses and programs in industrial 3D printing technologies, also known as additive manufacturing, in order to better prepare the next generation of engineers.
Those educational programs received a giant boost in January when Arizona State University (ASU) announced the opening of a new Academic Additive Manufacturing Center at ASU's Polytechnic School in Mesa.
The 15,000 sq.-ft. center, which holds more than $2 million of plastic, polymer and 3D metal printing equipment, was made possible by a partnership ASU formed with Concept Laser, Honeywell Aerospace, and Phoenix Analysis and Design Technologies.
John Murray, president and CEO of U.S. Concept Laser, who has been one of those industry leaders worried about the lack of 3D printing curriculum at universities, was a part of the partnership announcement. "Changing the future of metal additive manufacturing begins with educated teachers and curious students," he said. "The educational leadership that the ASU Polytechnic School provides to the Southwest region and the industry will certainly be impactful. Concept Laser is proud to be a partner in this initiative."

Emotionless? Not really, it's none of your business so why should you care?
Emotionless? Not really, it's none of your business so why should you care?
It's not really natural selection at all.
How would you define what is somebody's business and where is the basis for the point of view that you should not care about what 'isn't your business'?
Are you being sarcastic?

Wow, no wonder the air force teaches suicide prevention, so many of you know so little about it. I'm appalled by the way some of you behave. Here I thought it was a waste of time because I was of the assumption it was common sense.
Look, she's probably attention whoring but would you want to risk it if she's serious? She might actually need help. Yes, she made a stupid mistake, but is that mistake really worth her life? Come on.
Grow up.

I would be sympathetic about being harassed. Kids do stupid shit. I think she was moronic for taking pics of herself and thinking that they would not get out, but she was young and very dumb.
In my experience people that say that they are going to kill themselves are just looking for attention. It could be that they really want some help, or it could be that they just want people to feel bad for them. Best bet is to at least offer to help. Be nice and respectful like you should be to everyone. In the end, you do not want to ask yourself if you could have done something.
Why do kids still do this shit? If you take naked pics they will get on the internet.
It is fucking scary though how you can tell that a lot of kids here were raised by the internet. Just like most threads here that require some empathy.

If it doesn't really affect me, it's none of my business.
If it was me and they weren't my friend, then it's none of my business and I'm not going to be an antagonist in the affair. If she were my friend, then I would try to help her out emotionally, if we were close enough friends that is. Acquaintance level friend, probably wouldn't.

I love how everyone blames the girl, calling her a worthless whore, waste of space, good riddance, etc.
I instantly sighed at the guy who did this to her and was outright cruel to pass these pictures on. Sure what she did was stupid, but isn't what he did worse? =/
It's not even nude. You can't arrest someone for having a picture of someones belly.
Funny thing is... if those pictures were actually full nude, someone could actually charge her for distribution of child porn. There were cases like this in the past. She could get in hells kitchen for that.
That's not necessarily true. Somebody could use you as an excuse for something or talk about you and not have it affect you anymore than a person at your school committing suicide would. Less, even, as you wouldn't have to go to a school assembly or some shit.
Which is kinda silly considering the point of child pornography being illegal is to prevent children from being victimized by others.
That is just what you WISH were true, sorry buddy extreme loyalty dosnt work when u have it for some people and wish to kill others with little to no destinction between them, if you can't understand me, then let me put it this way, if one of your close friends who you are so loyal to, made a silly mistake and do some stupi things, would you help them to kill themselves for it?
Not caring is fundamentally different from making fun of someone. While not caring simply means the absence of everything, "laughing at someones stupidty" is active abuse.
You are perfectly allowed to leave people alone and think about them whatever you want in your head, just don't go and be a pest to other people.
---------- Post added 2013-01-28 at 01:30 AM ----------
And I absolutely agree. Teenagers have taken pictures of themselves nude since the beginning of photography. It is just the internet that made it so easily to distribute. While back in the days you had your Polaroid which you stored safetly under your bed, today it's just a (accidental) click and everyone and his mother knows about that picture.
Its the girls own fault, for having the need of so much attention, first of the pictures she took.
And now she is trying to get even more attention by saying she will commit suicide.
If she wants to kill her self by someting this small, then let her.
You reap what you sow.
And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him.

Suicide is natures way of weeding out the weak. I have no sympathy as well

You read that headline right. Kyle and the gang have benchmark results from the newly completed DOOM 3 on ATI and NVIDIA graphics cards. (Credit Ryu Connor for sending in the link first.) They've teamed up with id Software to make it happen, and the results are looking pretty good for NVIDIA. Judging by the results, unless something major changes with the ATI OpenGL drivers, it looks like the GeForce 6800 cards will be the ones to have for DOOM 3.

"Swindapa listened to the Silent Song, the song that the stars danced to with their mother the Moon. Sometimes it was hard to hear it, but then you must try less, not more, and it came."
-SM Stirling, On The Oceans Of Eternity (New York, 2000), Chapter Twenty-Six, p. 526.
So there is a story, or a story within the story, in which the stars are the daughters of the Moon. Who is their father? Or did they need a father? As with other mythical stories, we can comprehend the details if they are recounted to us. However, knowing what we now do about the relative sizes and distances of the stars and Moon, we can no longer buy into such a myth even as a metaphor.
I know that some neo-Pagans revere the Moon. Personally, I regard the Sun as the source of light and life and thus as the agent or instrument of knowledge. There are other suns but they are all one. Poul Anderson updates ancient myths in Tau Zero.

Kaor, Paul!
Exactly! It's impossible for anyone with KNOWLEDGE of real astronomy to take the Moon as seriously as Swindapa and her people does. Even the smallest stars are vastly larger than a mere moon.
But the Moon is also necessary for life on Earth.
Paul.Kaor, Paul!
The EFFECTS of our Earth having such a large Moon did play a role in how life arose on Earth. But, the Moon itself is not a living person or being. And certainly not a goddess of the kind worshiped by Swindapa's people.
Merry Christmas! Sean

The Mount Desert Summer Chorale is a remarkable and perhaps unique cultural institution: while most choruses disband for the summer, ours comes to life the last week of June. In seven short weeks, rehearsing once a week, the Chorale develops into a cohesive artistic whole. Chorale members are both year-round and summer residents who sing in other choruses during the winter and bring a wealth of choral experience with them. In a community with a rich musical life, especially in the summer, the Chorale holds a very special place.
The chorale was founded in 1968, when John Harms brought a few professional singers from New York for a weekend to join a group of singers from the Island in a performance of Rossini's Stabat Mater. This idea quickly became a tradition. In 1982, George Emlen became director and added orchestral accompaniment. Upon George Emlen's retirement in 1999, the Chorale incorporated as a not-for-profit organization and appointed David Schildkret as Music Director. Schildkret has continued the tradition of presenting major works and has expanded the usual collaborations with musicians from the Bangor Symphony to other ensembles, including the Eden Children's Chorus, members of the Brass Week faculty, and soloists from the region. Students from Mount Desert Island High School regularly sing with the choir as Al and Eva Meyer Scholars.

New York City – In what seemed to be a sign that conduit lenders were following through on their promises to demand more from borrowers, the lenders substantially trimmed their interest-only loan offerings this spring.
But the reversal lasted only a few months.
The investors who put money into conduit loans are buying more of the bonds backed by these deals than ever before, and that has put rising pressure on conduit lenders to make deals. So it should come as no surprise that, according to loan brokers across the country, underwriting standards are weakening again.
The volume of domestic commercial-mortgage-backed securities (CMBS) sold in the first six months of 2006 is projected to jump 28 percent from a year earlier, to $103 billion, according to John B. Levy, author of the Barron's/John B. Levy & Co. National Mortgage Survey.
That means conduit lenders must make more loans to apartment properties. It's a rigid requirement, because most B-piece bond buyers, who purchase the riskiest tranche of bonds backed by CMBS loan pools, will still only invest in pools in which more than 30 percent of the loans are to apartment properties. That's because apartments are viewed as a more stable source of income than industrial or office properties.
As the CMBS market continues to grow, conduit lenders must increase their volume of apartment lending if they don't want to be left behind by the growth spurt.
But it's hard to attract borrowers as interest rates rise and borrower interest in refinancing properties declines. The yield on 10-year Treasury bonds has finally broken the 5 percent level to reach 5.1 percent in May, up from 3.9 percent in June 2005. Worse, many borrowers who might have refinanced their loans now already did so at last year's lower interest rates.
Rates stay low
To keep business coming in, conduits are offering interest rates as low as 105 points over 10-year Treasury bond yields for typical apartment properties, several loan brokers said. That works out to an interest rate of about 6.25 percent.
"These conduits will still either lose money or break even to make the multifamily deals," said Nicolas Matt, managing director for Holliday Fenoglio Fowler, L.P., a mortgage banking firm based in Houston.
That shows in the way lenders have beat a hasty retreat on interest-only financing, which allows borrowers to pay only the interest due on their loans for a specified period of time. Six months ago, the interest-only periods commonly offered with 10-year conduit loans could last as long as five years. This spring, as conduit lenders tightened their underwriting requirements, those periods shrank to as short as two years. But lately lenders have reversed course.
"In the last month people are back up to five years," Matt said.
"Everybody has good intentions about tightening underwriting or increasing spreads, but not much has changed," said Gary M. Tenzer, executive vice president and co-founder of George Smith Partners, Inc., a commercial mortgage brokerage based in Los Angeles.
Instead, conduit lenders are thinking up new ways to lure borrowers. They have started to offer 10-year conduit loans that are amortized over 35 years instead of the typical 30 years. These loans have smaller monthly debt service payments, so that that borrower can often take out a larger loan.
The lenders in these deals offer the longer amortization instead of an interest-only period for the loan. For the lender, the final result of an interest-only loan and a longer amortized loan is the same. In both situations, the borrower will come to the end of the 10-year term with less of the loan's principal paid off.
DSCRs decline
The debt-service coverage ratios (DSCRs) demanded by conduit lenders have also declined. That's especially important because the size of a conduit loan is now usually limited by its DSCR instead of the ratio of loan size to property value, which until recently controlled the amount that could be lent.
That's because interest rates and the cost to purchase an average completed project have both swollen, requiring larger, more expensive loans, while the rental income produced by typical apartment properties to support this debt has risen only slightly. That makes it difficult for many deals to meet the standard requirement that a property should bring in income equal to 1.2 times the property's monthly mortgage payments.
Conduit lenders now offer loans with DSCRs of 1.15x and even lower. "They're doing whatever they can to make the loan pencil out," said Tom Fish, a senior managing director for Richard Ellis.
Levy reports that some conduits are even consciously making commercial loans with DSCRs of less than 1.00.
Lowered debt service coverage requirements are more prevalent on acquisition loans. These borrowers argue that they will be able to improve the property and raise the rents.
Conduit lenders are now also willing to waive their requirements that borrowers contribute to escrow accounts for taxes and insurance. The payments to structural reserve accounts, usually costing $250 per unit per year, now often only extend for two to three years, rather than the life of the loan, Matt said.
Fortunately, the delinquency rate for CMBS loans has remained relatively stable. But given the pressure on conduit lenders, it seems unlikely that underwriting terms will tighten until delinquencies rise.

'The Voice' Top 4 Eliminations Recap: And the Finalists Are…
So did the votes counted by iTunes give away the finalists prior to air time?
Note: Spoilers ahead if you haven't seen Tuesday's elimination episode.
The answer is YES. The first two finalists announced were No. 2 and No. 1 respectively on the charts with Team Blake contenders Terry McDermott and Cassadee Pope making it through to the next rounds. The lone Team Cee Lo contestant announced to continue on to the finale was…Nicholas David. The soulful singer from Minnesota was charting at No. 7 on the singles chart when Tuesday's episode ended.
Here are some highlights from the episode:
1. Team Blake takes on Of Monsters and Men. With Of Monsters and Men watching in the audience, Cassadee and Terry put on an awesome performance of the duo's hit song, "Little Talks." The Blake-ers sounded great together and had great chemistry on stage.
2. Season 2 alums back on the stage. Rae Lynn, Juliet Simms and Chris Mann all took the stage during the elimination episode. While I REALLY wish Tony Lucca would have taken the stage, they all did a good job in their own right. And hey, now I know what Christina Aguilera has been talking about regarding the "big things" Mann has been working on. Two albums and singing for the president? That's pretty big.
3. Superbabies and hair umbrellas. The "desert island" bit was super cute, especially when Adam Levine said he'd make a super singing baby with Aguilera, and Cassadee said she'd hide under Nicholas' beard.
4. Tony Lucca and Adam Levine. My dream team from Season 2 chatted in the skybox with Christina Milian about Lucca joining Levine's 222 Records label. I'm still a little bitter about the Mickey Mouse Club alum not winning Season 2, and can't wait to see what they put out together.
The Voice finale airs next Monday and Tuesday at 8 PM on NBC.
Do you think America made the right decision? Who do you think will win The Voice? Sound off in the comments below!

My mother has osteoporosis and is moving to an assisted living facility. She will have her own apartment, and I'm wondering what modifications should be made for her to live safely (prevent falls, etc.)?
There are many things to be careful of. Here are examples of some areas and their potential hazards:
• Lighting - too dim or inaccessible switches
• Carpets/rugs - torn/slippery/loose
• Doors - inaccessible to others in emergency
• Chairs - not supportive/inappropriate height/mobile
• Wires/cords - exposed
• Floors - slippery
• Tables - wobbly or unstable
• Bathtub - slippery
• Stairs - hand rails
It is important that she has a home safety evaluation performed by a home care nurse, occupational therapist or other experienced professional who has expertise in this field.
Important: We hope you find this general medical and health information useful, but this Q&A is meant to support not replace the professional medical advice you receive from your doctor.

Studio Monitor Film Documentary: Depravation of Private Property in Town of Sighnaghi
Studio Monitor produced documentary film on instances of property deprivation in the town of Sighnaghi. The TV-Company Kavkasia will broadcast this film within the next few days.
The film discusses how law enforcing bodies are taking private property in the period of 2007-2008. Manana Macharashvili, Tamar Tarashvili, Gela Bezhashvili and other people who were deprived off their property describe in full details all what happened with them. Officials and law enforcers confiscate by escorting property owners to a notary public and under threat of force them to hand over their property. Some were forced to sell their property to the state and others to provide the property to the state free-of-charge, as a public good. The property owners were threatened that they or their relatives would be arrested if they did not yield the demands of law enforcers. Some have also been physically abused.
A criminal case has been launched on depriving Macharashvili's and Tarashvili's property illegally in the Office of the Prosecutor General (Chief Prosecutor's Office) for one year now. However, no one has been punished up to present time and the case drags-on.

We had been expecting reversals for the past two weeks and Nifty did so a trifle rapidly in the past week.Nifty came down from 7841 on July 25 to 7603, on August 01, in just 5 trading sessions.Whether this is a correction or a trend reversal, only time will tell.I shall continue with my views and let you all decide. One thing is now very clear. When astro aspects bunch up and when there is also a technical confirmation, then surely there is an impact in the markets.
A look at the monthly cycles...
This could coincide with the completion of diametric wave F and the beginning of wave G downwards.As usual it did not take much to dampen the sentiments of markets all over the globe.
Here are the weekly cycles chart...
In the monthly cycles chart,the last candle was not considered, because it pertained to August which had just begun.So in the coming four weeks, if the Weekly manages to close above 7422, the bullish trend will be intact. Any closing above 7800 will be strongly bullish.However, looking at the weekly technicals, it looks like some more downside may be achieved on a weekly scale, before we resume the uptrend.Weekly cycles also have reached their 13 week cycle which indicates some reversal.
Here are the Stochastics...
After several weeks of bearish divergence, Nifty Stochastics has turned down below the 70 mark.Critical support point shall be the 36.28 mark.These cycles an indicators are cautioning us not be overly bullish at this point in time...
Neowave counts are shown on the daily chart.We appear to be in the c leg of wave f of larger Diametric wave, F.Even though irregular corrections are comparatively rare,we will not discount the possibility, especially if Nifty weakens strongly this week also.If wave c ends above 5422, then it is an irregular triangle with the d wave moving upwards and a final smaller e moving downwards.Post the triangle then we could expect a 300 to 400 point rise.
Another more bearish possibility is, since wave b was larger than wave a ( wave a was 387 points, as whereas wave b was 417 points), wave c could be equal to wave a- which means wave c could go down to 7454.So where wave c ends is an important point for post pattern analysis of Nifty movement.
30 minute chart makes things a little more clearer.Wave c of f had turned down from 7789 levels.Currently it is forming wave 3 of c.This means there is some more space to go down.
Enlarged chart brings out the point that wave c is still not complete.Maybe it will go beyond wave a in vertical length on Monday before a bounce forming wave 4. Technically wave 4 should not cross the 0-2 trendline drawn above. Depending on the angle of recovery, that means Nifty should not bounce beyond 7660 for this impulse to be valid. So the prudent trade would be to go short with a stop loss of 7660, if Nifty bounces on Monday.Of course if the bounce is more than 7660, then the Irregular flat gets converted into Irregular triangle or Irregular c wave failure patterns, both of which are bullish.Then we buy with a stoploss of 7660.
To sum up, our trade decisions depend on what Nifty would do with the current c wave.
That brings us to Astrology.
Can the planets give us some indications then?
Net, net, movement of c wave decides things for the time being. Astro indicates that the market could continue its negative ways till a turn around happens by August 06 or 07.
Now let us wait and watch! If things happen the way we want, well and good. If not we get powerful lessons to be learnt. Both are fine anyway.
Of course the regular disclaimers hold good. Trade with caution. No anticipation.Protect your capital always.
Have a great week.

The start of the Rangel scandals can be pegged to David Kocieniewski's New York Times story in July 2008. His article prompted us to begin our review of Rangel's finances, resulting in our exposé of Rangel's tax evasion and his acceptance of corporate-funded junkets.
It should be noted, however, that New York Post reporter Geoff Earle wrote a year earlier about Rangel's solicitation of corporate money for the Rangel Center.
July 23, 2007- Geoff Earle of the New York Post reports that Rangel is soliciting funds for the Charles B. Rangel Center for Public Service from corporations that have interests before Congress, and that Rangel secured a $2 million "seed money" earmark from Congress.
July 11, 2008– New York Times' David Kocieniewski reports that Rangel occupies three rent-stabilized apartments in a luxury building, and uses a fourth as a campaign office.

The summer is almost over and the Fall/Winter collections are slowly starting to getinto stores. We take a look at Danish label Wood Wood. They are for us one of the labels that best bridges so called streetwear and high end fashion, creating their very own look. The market has in recent months seen many new brands, but Wood Wood is one of the founding fathers of it.
Their new Fall/Winter 2008 collection shows that once again. Smart mixes of cotton pants, knitwear, t-shirts, caps and complicated cut & sew items. As usual they introduce some seasonal colors that make them very recognizable.
Have a closer look at the upcoming collection after the jump.

Another chapter closed. Another new beginning.
Our sincere thanks to everyone who sent us a message for Hettie. Your kind support helped us get through the sad hours and makes us feel loved. Thank you for taking the time to reach out.

Good night, Sweet Hettie. Our critters leaving is so difficult!
I loved the photos of all the needlework in your world this week as well as the stunning portrait of your Jamie! She has captured his energy and spirit so well! Lovely!
Thanks for the refreshing visit today! I needed some kindred spirit therapy!I, too, am so sorry you had to make that terrible choice to have Hettie put down. It is a severely hard thing to do; but you made the right decision. You cannot see your loved animals in pain. You have wonderful memories of your kitty friend, after all.
I love the look of those new sewing projects you have going on now. The fabrics are lovely. Please keep us posted on the progress of the new quilt.My hubby and I have come to the same conclusion as you and Hanno. After our sweet cat passed two weeks ago, we decided we couldn't face burying another pet, either. Whenever we miss him, we try to remember all the great memories we made with him and our other furry family. Hoping for better days!
ReplyDeleteWhat a hard thing to have to do, but lovely that you could hold Hettie as she left. I'm sad to hear you won't have any other 4 legged friends as they do offer so much joy, but understand how hard it is when they have to leave. That re-purposed Mambo shirt/cushion is just fabulous!! Have a lovely week x
ReplyDeleteSo sorry about for the loss of your beautiful Hettie, I know how hard it is to lose a pet, within the last year I had to put 2 of my cats down, one of them with cancer too.
I love your Mambo pillow so cute. The pastel of your grandson is beautiful, your friend is a very talented artist. A big hug to you.Sorry to read about the passing of Hettie, Rhonda. It was good that Tricia was still here to offer some comfort to you and Hanno. Please say "goodbye and safe journey home" to her for me and I know that you will miss her company as well. Enjoy your gardening through the week - it will make you feel better i'm sure.
ReplyDeleteThe ebb and flow of life at your home is the most attractive thing that you write about. Hetti's passing intermingled with plans, visits, creativity, sadness and happiness - life is just like one of those patchwork quilts you and Tricia always seem to be working on. Perhaps that is why quilting is so popular as it has such deep symbolism
ReplyDeleteSorry about Hettie, I know how you feel, it's like losing a person isn't it, horrendously painful. Glad you decided not to prolong her life though, that was the best move. And it's a good idea to make her your final long-term pet ... once we get to a certain age we have to worry about what happens to THEM when WE pass away! Have you thought about the possibility of short-term fostering from the local cat's home instead? Or even looking after somebody else's cat while theyr'e on holiday? Anyway, enjoy your sewing, I'm looking forward to getting back into it as winter approaches here in the UK xx
ReplyDeletesorry for your loss rhonda & hanno, we all enjoyed the occasional garden photo with Hettie in it, she will be missed by us all too. did you bury her at home? a lovely new fruit tree for her?
those are beautiful sewing projects you have going there & yes, please keep us updated with your quilt
what a striking portrait of jaime! very talented indeed!
sending hugs your way
thanx for sharingHallo Rhonda, I'm just catching up after sometime away. Like others I am sorry to hear you had to put Hettie down but I feel you made the right decision not to let her hang on (and maybe suffer). I don't have pets (I am gone 12 hours a day with work/commute) but am seriously thinking of getting a dog when I retire (probably 4 years from now). BUT I am so terribly torn as I almost don't want to get my heart broken by some lovely four-legged friend. I think I may well do it though. Sometime ago, on a trip to Croatia, a lovely lady put it this way "if you can live without a dog, do so, but I can't". She loved her animals so much but I understand exactly where she was coming from. On that note, I probably missed it but you used to have dogs too didn't you. Did you lose them also? I remember all those pictures of them "helping" Hano in the garden.
I have to comment on your sister's quilt - it is a beauty. Oh for the days when I have the time for that too. And as for Jamie's picture - beautiful! Anna (in France)
Thank you for your comment today. I love reading your opinions and thoughts. We have built up a wonderfully diverse community here that I'm very proud to be a part of.
Please remember, comments containing links will not be published.
