Since I have been back from Paducah I have been so busy I have barely had time to sit down.  Mom and I have been working on Scraps, she ironing and me cutting into 2 1/2" strips.  Yesterday we spent half of the day shopping for a new chair for Mom.  She decided she needed a recliner so she could prop up her legs and feet while she watches tv in the evenings.  Well, she no longer got stretched out in her new chair than I began to hear snoring.  I knew that was going to happen, but she always says, "I'm not asleep, I just had my eyes closed.  DH and I went to the Base this morning to get meds and go to the commissary and Mom stayed home to work on scraps.  She has been resting since about 1:30 and I just saw her coming into the den.  Guess she is ready to work on scraps again.  We really need to get her hair cut, a shower and cut her toe nails(boy am I looking forward to that).
