Celtic Heart Update June 24.

The borders meet!  That's a big relief.

I didn't get much done this past week.  The 18th was the six-month anniversary of my older sisters passing.  Beth was 58 and had pancreatic cancer.  I lost my closest cousin on May 27th of adrenal gland cancer, and on Tuesday the 19th of June, my youngest daughter's kindergarten teacher and dear friend, Jill, from pancreatic cancer as well. 

I couldn't stitch.  I could barely function.  Grief disables me.  It always has done.

Today, with the rising sun, I began stitching.  It gives me comfort and allows me to release the grief.
