I have now made 50 blankets! Yay! I gave 20 to the Infusion Center at the hospital today. They were very appreciative and will begin to give them out in December. If they start to go too quickly, I will make more. It has been a lot of fun.

    Wow, Cynthia--I feel like a real slacker!
    Congratulations. It should be such a nice feeling to know you are giving comfort to so many others. What a neat lady you are!

    Hugs, Renee

    You've been a very busy lady, indeed! How nice of you and I bet the blankets are beautiful. What name did you decide on for the blankets? I crochet blankets for the local children's hospital and I'm just about finished with one. It feels good to give back, doesn't it :-)

    OK, now I am blushing...I am
    OK, now I am blushing...I am really not that good...lol. Just fidgety.

    I have had coworkers helping and Danny has been averaging 1-2 day (although I average 3-4 day ;-). After he makes his blanket(s), he tells me he has accumulated x amount of hours of radio-controlled airplane flight time (his hobby). He then usually goes out and wrecks one and comes back and tinkers for days. He is definitely an engineer, if you hadn't guessed that ;-)

    But I am a little hyper and, if I slow down, Katherine gets very upset as she is used to me having more energy than her. She is like her father--slow moving but probably more effective...lol.

    And you can't live in Louisiana and not be a Saints fan! Every Friday at work, we wear our team colors (Spirit Day). So far the only colors that I have seen are black and gold. They're nuts around here! Imagine an entire hospital dressed in Saints teeshirts, earrings, hats, etc. VickiSam, are you there? You may need to move here as you would love it ;-)
