SUPPER CLUB - Saturday, May 14
Posted: Sat May 14, 2022 7:42 am
Good morning,
I got my Buckeye Beauty top almost finished yesterday morning, then went out in the yard and finished up the tough area I've been working on for the last couple weeks. Whew! From now on, things will be a breeze, comparatively speaking. We knocked off about 3:30, had an evening campfire and pizza. A good Friday the 13th. The only incident was Bill got Scout (our John Deere tractor) stuck in the mud in the front woods and we had to use Bart (the truck) to pull him out. Poor Scout! Poor Bart. Poor Bill!!
Today - no real plan. We're going to have a rainy morning but it might let up this afternoon and get up to 60*. I hope to get my piano key border finished and on my BB top. Then we'll see what happens. Maybe more yard work if it's not too wet. We have a boondocker coming in tonite - a muscian/singer/songwriter who is in town for a performance. Bill went to his website and listened to one of his shows. He's pretty good!
IRISH! You're back!! Yay!! That's too funny about your sister and her pizza. You just can't take her anywhere, can you. Is her house ready for her to move into yet? Is Kathy planning to do ALL that traveling in one summer?? Are you going with? Our eaglets are growing up so fast. They are about as big as Dad now. Lots of wingersizing going on, and hopping up onto the nest rails. I'm so afraid they're going to accidentally go over one day! We are going camping May 31-June 8. I hope they don't fledge while we're gone! Chatter on the site is they will fledge sometime first half of June. Do they stick around the nest for a while, or do they just figure out they can fly one day and they're gone!?
JANA - Sounds like Aaron might have gotten himself out of the fire and into the frying pan for some incidents! Want me to send you a box of Lady Clairol?? My brother, Gene, used to use climbers to top trees in his much younger days. I wonder if he still has them. . . . Do you use Red Snappers to load your quilts? Bill bought some at the Houston Quilt show several years ago. So much easier and faster than pins.
BECCA - your place sounds a lot like ours. 2/3 of our property remains 'as-is' with trees and in some places brush so thick we can't get through it. But the acre we do maintain is a lot of extra work if left to go even for one year. Have you thought about having a yard maintainance company coming, perhaps even once a season to help out with some of the heavier work? We're considering it.
VELDA - happy garage sale hopping! Hope treasures abound! Sale season is getting a slow start here this year. WEather just too cold.
CAROL - congratulations on having to take in your jeans!! A great accomplishment!
I'm trying to think of supper for tonite. We still have a couple fresh burger buns left from Wed so we'll have that and salad left over from last night. And fries if Bill wishes.
What might you be having?
