We are 33* this morning! Brrr!!! But might make 50* this afternoon. Doesn't really matter to me, except that it's nice to take a break from all the mask making and get in a long walk. Yesterday we delivered some more masks. Today, make and mail more. I've lost track of how many I've made but well over 100. And requests keep coming in. I hate to say no - so I don't. I am still waiting on my iron. I ordered it two weeks ago. It was shipped 6 days ago and it's been sitting someplace in Kent - 40 miles away - for last 4 days. I'm starting to think I'll have drive up there and get it myself! I'm still using my little travel iron and am not used to having to turn off my iron when I'm done. I keep forgetting. I have notes all over the house reminding me.
This morning QIAD had a 'free shipping' sale on the pattern "On a Roll", the toilet paper quilt. It's so cute! Especially now! I couldn't resist so I ordered it. But by the time I have time to make it, it may not be so cute! I might be using the fabric as actual TP instead!
CHICKIE - so nice to hear good news!! Double good news, actually - your DD's BIL recovering and none of you getting it! A scary couple of weeks for you all. I think I'd be spending all my spare time out in the pasture, watching those cute baby cows! They can be so fun and really put on a show! We need more fun! When I was growing up, our big picture window looked out on the neighboring farm's pasture and they always had several calves each spring. It was better than any TV show! I haven't heard of anyone needing the boufant caps here and I sure hope I don't! You get a gold star for making them!
JANA - sorry about your burnt finger. When I was doing ties, I got them, too. And I may be going back to ties eventually. A nice idea to put mask kits on the porch though it wouldn't work for me. No one can even see my porch!
MARY ROSE - after working for so long I just bet you are enjoying having time to yourself! When I retired I felt like I'd been released from a cage! Even though I really liked my job.
BECCA - thank you for the "Gene Prayers". He and his kids are all very religious and know the power of prayer. They appreciate them so much. Marge is quietly slipping away and the kids have gathered. I hope it happens while they are still all there. Some of them live 400 miles away and eventually will have to return to jobs and homes and families. But a big 3-day snow storm is moving in today and even in Alaska a storm this size gets attention.
LORI - I would love to meet all your furbabies and offer up a lap! OH, and it would be fun to meet you, too.
I saw your quilt tops and they are beautiful! I love your work, always. Your little Halloween houses are so cute! Are they a table topper?I have a lasagna in the freezer that I made before we went camping. I think we'll pull that out for tonight and then make a salad. Still have a few fresh greens left. I would love some fresh garlic bread to go with, but I would have to bake it from scratch and since neither of us need it I don't think I"ll go to the trouble. Not today, anyway.
How is YOUR supper story going to read?
