Good Morning Girls
Sorry I was MIA yesterday.... slept too late... again and decided I better get busy on the house chores! Cranked up the music, filled my coffee cup and got busy with the uglies.
Lois... Did you have another one of those "don't-feel-like-doing-nothing" days yesterday? When we have a stretch of cloudy dreary days... it's hard for me to get super motivated too. I just want to park fanny on the couch and watch TV and do my embroidery projects.
Suzette....If you got 3 years out of an iron... I think that's pretty good. When you think how much more we use an iron than "normal" people! The last iron I bought was a Hamilton Beach Durathon.. and I have to say, it's been pretty good. I've heard to make them last longer to never put water in them... but I'm a steam freak... gotta have it.
Judi.... I all my married years, I don't think my DEX ever brought me a cup of coffee.... which is why I think it's so darn sweet of Ken to bring you coffee. After having to completely heat a house with firewood when we lived in No. Minnesota... I never wanted to see a fireplace again...
Flo.... Sure hope your dry wall people show up tomorrow! I know how anxious you guys are to have that all done!!!
Maryz.... No wonder your trip to Costco and the grocery store pooped you out! Even a short trip to Target does it for me. I did figure out how to get Michael's book on my IPad--after a phone call to Amazon. And I thought of a title for his next one "Summer Guilty"
Did I see you are sending a quilt to Kathy? You read my mind... I was thinking about getting one going for her. I've started a little box for her and might run to Joann tomorrow to see what fun things I can put it in.
Valerie.... Are you making the Daybreak quilt from Connecting Threads? That's the pattern my sister picked out for me to make for her in queen size. Though we haven't had a chance to look for fabric yet. I might take some of my scraps etc' and make a little practice block or two before I start hers. So sorry to hear your Dad isn't feeling great!
Velda.... Do remember watching movies and TV as a kid and seeing sci-fi movies with video telephone? And look... it's not science fiction anymore! Even cell phones? Who knew when those first phones came out that eventually you'd be able to actually see the person you're talking to! Even in another COUNTRY! Still amazes me!
Chriss.. I meant to log on during prayer circle yesterday... but I was vacuuming and knocked over a wet plant... so I had MUD all over my carpet.... had to grab the carpet shampooer machine.... but all the while, instead of swearing, I was praying! Especially for our sweet Kathy.
Needless to say I didn't get any sewing in yesterday... .but today I have a date with Mr. Maytag and will sew as he does his thing. Friday I got another UFO on other table and ready to pin, so might work on that a bit. It's all appliqued so it's for sure going to take me a while to quilt as the plan it just to echo around all the edges. God grant me lots of patience for that one!
time to refill the coffee and head down to S E W !!!! always makes me happy!
Wishing you all a Super Sunday
