Good Morning Girls
Happy Tuesday... SSDD as they say (same stuff, different day) The big excitement for the day is it's my turn in the laundry room! But I don't mind as you know my sewing room is right there and I can stay down stairs all day!!!
Maryz.. Just in case you bet back this way from your phone.... Lots of prayers to St, Christopher for safe travels home! I know you are both anxious to get there, but I hope you (and I mean Bill) will take it easy and not push too hard to get back. Hope you will give us sit-reps along the way. I finished up some Christmas tree blocks yesterday, but there's no place to lay out anything on my big table so I just set them aside, perhaps by next Christmas I'll be able to finish them. A while back I had this idea to make a small quilt with black background and appliqued bright colors, I'll send a picture. Worked on that a little,
Kathy... OH I'm sure nothing is wrong with your brain.... but do you ever wonder why it just won't shut down at night? Do you suppose it's because we are mothers and we spend a lot of time worrying about our kids... especially with Covid around? I've misplaced something around my house that I need--even tho I KNOW I put it a safe place and that kept me awake off and on all night. Hope you have a nice restful day planned.
Izzy.... It sounds like you have been getting more snow that we have here in Minnesota! Sorry about that, even though I'm quite content with getting much less. I remember that Irish Swap too. When I met my brother a few weeks ago and gave him a pile of quilts for a Native American community he works with, that was one I brought.
Diane.... You go the double whammy... TMJ and sleep apnea! How is your new cutting table working out! I love mine as it's the perfect height, I'm just hoping it fits into new sewing room. Though my DDIL Kris has a table saw and can cut it down for me.
Lois... Have you seen the new Fat Cat BLock of the month?
Judi,... No wonder I can't find what I'm looking for... You have St. Anthony busy looking for your 1/4" foot! It's okay,.. I'll loop back around to him later. Did you ever find it? Do you use the kind with the little metal piece on the right side? I have one of those but found I prefer that little narrow one with out that "lip"
Katy.... So Sorry to hear your DD has Covid.. and while I would love to lose 15 in 3 weeks, I'm thinking that may not be a good thing always.
Jana.... ALL 4 wisdom teeth removed at the same time??? Is he NUTS? And how to you forget that... I'd be dreading it for weeks ahead of time.
Valerie,... Thanks for the reminder! I do have my blocks done and will probably get to the post office in the next day or two. I usually try to make each trip OUT of the house count.. you know do a couple things while I'm out. I figure if I have to warm up the car, I better make it worthwhile!
Sharon.... That is happening a lot here too, places closed or hours reduced because nobody wants to work. Even a McDonalds I stopped at one day had a sign that they had to close at 4pm because they had nobody to work. Another restaurant would only do dine-in and NO TO-GO orders because they didn't have enough workers.
Last Spring when I was helping Jen's David clean out his house before he moved..... he had this darling light fixture in the master bedroom.... kind of like a mini Chandelier with clear bead and stuff. Some of the beads were missing, but David had them in a little bag, and he took down the fixture so I could have it here. Since May the beads have been in a little zip bag clipped to the front of my fridge so I would know right where they are. Yesterday I brought the fixture in from the garage to get it cleaned up and fixed up so I could have Shawn put it in my bedroom in my new place. Guess what? The bag is missing from the fridge. Doesn't it just figure! I know there are around here somewhere, but the life of me I don't remember moving them. So.... Judi... if you're done with St. Anthony for your 1/4" foot, can I have him now!
Time for more coffee and to get started on the huge pile of laundry!
wishing you all a Terrific Tuesday
