My first post!!!!

Wow, I have meant to do this for a while, I even played with other names, but when I went to put mine in, this is what came out. From where? Kind of like when you are ordering a meal and you are undecided but whatever comes out of your mouth, thst's it. . your decision. I had decided on quilting upstream, but at the last minute I thought how at different periods I am not quilting. But? I am always piecing my life in patches, or maybe my life is a patchwork to be pieced together? Curious to me. In my household there is a 61 year old husband, we will call him Spoon on here, also his "real" nickname so that should be easy to remember. After a few years of sickness after sickness he was diagnosed with stage 4 prostate cancer after testing 1913 on his psa and he has a gleason score of 4+5=9 in March 2011. Not good. Currently he is on Lupron for hormone therapy, Xgeva for the bone mestasis and Zytiga for his cancer. From now on I will say PCa for prostate cancer and HT for hormone therapy, although I don't plan on a lot of conversation along those lines, but just in case. :-) There is also Alex, a 5.5 yr old sheltie diagnosed with cushings syndrome this past spring, and if you know anything of these two disease they belong to the old. My guys are young, but this is where God didn't ask me, did he? But life is good here, and we just keep piecing it back together when it gets torn don't we? This has been a lazy Saturday for us, he pushed himself physically this week so he has been taking his scripts and sleeping, while I sit here and hand quilt on my sunbonnet babies quilt. We did bust out for a bit earlier for hamburger steak at the Cedar Lounge in Morrilton, they make THE best around, just a shame the place is a bar and smells like one for non drinking non smokers like us, lol. Oh well, bellies are full and satiated as well as Alex's since we brought him plenty of leftovers. I should mention I made these 63 blocks last summer, what was I thinking, and had so much fun doing it that I made too many. I mostly quilt by hand so I will be working on this forever I am sure, 13 done at this point. But no worries since I get sidetracked often with other projects. So this is it, #1. I do this on my tablet, so please excuse the errors that pop up, tablets are not the best way to do something like this really, but it is what I have. God loves you and so do I.
