Been busy

I've been having a lot of guilt because I've been neglecting updates, but so much is going on, and I get overwhelmed easily.

Here, above, though, I've finally got Stephan's ancestral quilt hung up.  It was sewn by a sister of his great-grandmother, and it has made the room seem so much calmer,

 Mom is about half-way out of bed in the picture.  She likes to take breaks when she's getting up, and I've just been letting her set the pace.  :-)

(edit) Oh! And, I want to add that the beautiful, Southern garden scenes that Jeanie had hanging on Mom's wall, and I hung again up here are down now, and Mom POURS over them.  She just loves them.  She has them stacked up and she looks at them for hours.  When I made the room less sensory overwhelming, I was so sad to take those down, since I liked to look up at them myself.  But, now, I'm glad I did as Mom is enjoying them so much!
