It's about time...

Well, life has become quite chaotic in my family lately-and with all the worrying, it diminishes the importance of crafting and doing fun things.  My niece at 10 months was diagnosed with Leukemia so she's been going through chemotherapy and staying at a Children's Hospital.  We live quite far away and there isn't much to do to help the situation-because the only thing that helps is my niece getting healthy.  My sister also went through a roller coaster with her 3rd child who was breech.  Now for my other impairment, I started this silly t-shirt rug made out of strips of t-shirts and latch hooked on.  It's been sitting on my coffee table haunting me while I watch tv idle handed.  I made myself promise not to start any more projects until that was completed, and now, finally it is done.
