It was a wild night with the pets so I was up too ding dang early this morning. They had their breakfast and now both of them have gone back to bed with their father. And here I am. Sigh.
Yesterday was 4 loads of laundry plus a quilt. Dried the sheets and towels on the lines. I love the freshness of line drying. I also saw the chiropractor who worked on my wrist which is improving. I did some LOTR sketching of block layout and decided I would need more blocks. Since I didn't print off all the available patterns I went back and printed the rest of them. I now have a total of about 42 patterns. I don't think I'll make them all, but most of them. I'm working on #11 now. We're leaving Monday for 4 nights of camping. I don't think I'll take my machine. I need a break from this project.
Today will be sewing, cleaning, packing - probably in that order. Most everything is already packed so that won't be a big deal.
CAROL - happy silver anniversary! Monterey is beautiful! Did you go to the aquarium there? the Cannery? nearby Carmel? I hope the weather was purrfect for you! What does your hubby do?
TINA - I would be calling the 800 number for the solar panels if I were Frankie . . And I would probably leave the stump and set a planter of flowers on it! lol! I've worked on digging out stumps. Too much work unless you have machinery or dynamite.
BECCA - oh, I hope the hornets don't give you any trouble until you can eliminate the nest! Here, it's yellow jackets. Last year was a bad year for them, but this year, we've seen hardly any.
JANA - will you be back to your mini-sox today? Been a lot of squirrels at your house lately. The biggest one being that new locking system.
CHICKIE - it posted! Yay! I love Carmel, too. So did my mom, who took the name "Carmel" as her confirmation name. So I always have a good feeling when I'm there - which has been too many years now!
We haven't heard from Irish in quite a while and I know IDA hit PA pretty hard so I was starting to worry a little about her. So I texted her. No worries! She is off with her sister and other folks at their "camp" for several days. (I think in our neck of the woods we would call it a mountain cabin). She says they've been having a ball eating, playing cards, eating, playing cards, buying plants, eating, and playing cards. Well, as long as she's eating .. . . .
We have some leftover chicken so tonite's fare will be shredded chicken and pasta with basil, olive oil, garlic, walnuts, and parmesan cheese - my version of pesto. With a mixed greens salad on the side.
What sounds good to you tonite?
