This morning, I did some cleaning. The usual Sunday morning routine.
The I worked on my bookkeeping and my genealogy. I wanted to work on some letters that were written by my mother's uncle. I entered them in the Letters from the Past blog. I was able to add about 4 or 5 letters. I also added my grandmother's obit on that page as well. I was surprised to see where he was separated from his wife in 1926. Not sure which one that was. But in 1927 he found Jo - the one who had a son with him - and even mentioned her name. That was the first time I saw that. Since he was married 7 or 8 times, it would have been nice if she would have said who his wife was. This one was in Portland, and he said she had property in Canada. That was interesting, since she was born in ND. But then my dad's family had property in Canada as well. I have more letters to read and will find out more about him. He has a fascinating life and maybe someday, someone will write about him. I think the reason my grandfather didn't go to visit him was because of my grandmother. Plus, he always called her "and wife" in the letters. I don't know if that was a "dig" or just something he did to everyone.
Then I went to watch the game. Seahawks won today! Then we watched the Mariner's game and we won that too! WOO-HOO! We are winning.
I got my mail all set to go to the post office, but it's a holiday tomorrow. So, it's going to have to wait till Tuesday. I still don't know if I have a PT appointment Tuesday - I think we forgot to schedule it.
I worked on laundry. The funny part around the house is since we got new chairs, Sophie hasn't come around to sit with me. I don't think she likes the chairs. Or it will be a while before she decides if she likes them or not. So, she's been sleeping on the bed - ever since Patrick changed the quilt. She loves the quilt we have on it now.
Today, was just one of those days that didn't work out for Happy Stitching/Happy Quilting!
