Larry and I meet September 1999 and we got an unofficial marrage Dec. 31 2005 at 7 pm.  at a gay bar with a gay minister.  We moved to northern Iowa and lived in a few small towns up there.  We decided to move back to our fav town of Waterloo/Cedar Falls area September 2005.  He had a mild stroke before we moved in April and had another mild stroke after we moved to Cedar Falls.  He started to go through Dimentia and go down hill after we moved to C.F.   On November 23, 2005 he had no blood pressure so the ambulance was called and we took him to the Hospice home for constant care since he had a D.N.R on him.  We spent Thanksgiving in the Hospice home last year and his brother and sister came down from northwest Iowa to see him.  It took them a 3 hour drive to Waterloo.  They left for home at 7pm on the 25th of November.  When they got back home Larry some how known that they made it home all right cause he passed away at 10:20pm and I was next to his bedside when he took his last breath.

I know that puting this Memoral in my profile is looking in to my past but I am trying to keep his memory alive.

I want to let every one know we had the best 5 years together.

Have a beer for me Honny and have fun in Heven.

I am making up a Latch Hook rug for the Feast of Fools podcast. 

I thought of doing a latch hook rug because my dad has been making latch hook rugs for a long time now.  He has made up around  (+ or -) 50 latch hook rugs in different sizes.  He is suffering though ALS or Lou Garrets Disease.  He can't talk or swallow food and has a feeding tube in his stomach. I know that he has a short time left on this earth but his latch hook rugs that he has made will keep his memory alive when he pass away.  I hope not soon.

I am curently home bound and watching over dad to help him out in any way I can so when I have some free time I decided to make a latch hook to keep me busy. 

I decided to go with the Feast of Fools logo because I love the FOF podcast and wanted to make something from my heart for the best podcast on earth and makes me proud to know the FOF team. 

Here are 4 photos of the progress on the FOF latch hook rug.

I had to take a break from making the latch hook rug cause my hand was cramping up.  I got 24 rows done out of 124 and I am trying to get as close to the original colors but I am having a hard time finding the yarn that closely matches the colors inside the star.  Here are a couple of photo's that I took today of the progress.

I signed up for a volenter on the set of Extreme Makover - Home Edition and at 5:30 pm I was called to go on the set cause they needed help.  I don't have that many photos of the progress today but It was worth it I got a chance to get on the set of the show.  I was moving things around for other people on the set and got a shirt for it. From what I heard they have a spiral stairs.  I was working outside and I seen that they had built a barn and a Greenhouse outside.  I was close to the greenhouse. I will plan on going up there tomorow.  This time for more photos cause I know you all want photos of the house.  They work night and day to get this far.  Have fun and watch for more blogs on the progress.

Here is the progress I am making on the Feast of Fools latch hook rug.  It will be 2' 9" tall by 2' 8" wide.  I am curently on the 14th row out of 123 rows.  For a grand total of 14,760 small pieces of yarn.  It is going slow for me cause my dad (The latch hook King) is allready over half way though one latch hook that is about the same size and we started at the same time.  I will keep posting updates and more photos of the progress in my Blog.
