No matter what, I keep waking up at 0330. I don't know if it's the dog or if I can't get off Central Time Zone. The good news is that in a week, I'll be waking up at 0430. That doesn't sound quite so early. I love Daylight Saving Time.
LOIS - You are so lucky to have your own personal hair stylist that makes house calls! Sounds like Olivia is really climbing the ladder in her career. Congratulations to her! I know you're very proud of her.
LYN - I'm amazed that you got your permit processed so quickly! In our county it would take 4 to 6 weeks for nearly any kind of permit. Do you plan a little man corner in your shed with a TV & recliner for Garry to relax while you are sewing?
FLO - I believe your tractor is an Allis Chalmers. I saw manuals on line for it if your hubby doesn't have one. Our Farmall A tractor was manufactured July, 1948. Bill prefers not to refer to it as "antique" as he was also "manufactured" in July, 1948.

TINA B - I didn't realize you were already heading back to VA (The Mother State, did you know?) I hope you don't forget anything you need for taxes. Too bad you couldn't just get the taxes done while you are at home, but it sounds like you got plenty done! Safe flight!!
VAL - sorry I misunderstood. Flo said she lived on 11 acres and I thought you said you lived on about half that. I must have misread. Not surprising. I'm usually reading everyone's posts at 4am, waiting for coffee to kick in.

JANA - Did you get your stars together yesterday? Is there a name to your quilt or are you just making stars? I want to look it up. You have arthritis in your thumb, too?? You know Thumb Arthritis is a thing? I have trouble with the red snappers, too. And with the catches that hold the cogs when I turn the rollers on our quilt frame. And picking up a glass of water or opening jars, hand sewing and squeezing toothpaste. I hope, if you want it, joint surgery is in your future. How is Andrew doing?
CHRISS - happy birthday to Marilyn tomorrow. It's also my late DH#2's (Roy) Birthday. I'm glad someone is still celebrating that special date! I wish you could see Marilyn more often. What does her boyfriend do for a living? Did you get some of those Dresden Plates made yesterday? Aren't they fun!
JUDI - did you make any decisions on the Christmas quilts yesterday? Pattern? Fabrics? I want to start with Scaredy Cat Christmas and I did pull out a few fabrics, but I didn't get very far before other things called my name.
MARY Q - What's on your agenda for today?
DIANE - Happy QOV-ing! How is Laura feeling? Happy birthday to your DD in a few weeks. My oldest just turned 52 in Feb. The years do fly by!
We are going to a play in Tacoma this afternoon with three other couples - Jersey Boys. Then out for pizza afterward. I know this was a movie a few years back but I didn't see it. I'm not much of a movie person - I'd rather go to a play any day of the week. So this will be fun. We haven't socialized with anyone but little Amara since last October. I hope I remember how to converse in Big People Speak! lol!
Have a great day!
