Good Report

June 30th, 2008

My eye appointment this morning was at ten thirty but it was almost an hour before I was called into the exam room.  I was told that the delay was because they could not find my file.  So they just took down the information for the day and I was out in just a few [...]

PM Is Night And AM Is Morning

June 29th, 2008

I am beginning to think that I need lessons to know how to set an alarm clock. Last night I did the same thing that I did once before. I set my alarm for nine o’clock but I had it set for PM and not AM. I woke up this morning about [...]

What A Week

June 28th, 2008

This week has not been that great a week and I have felt rather down for the entire week. I guess it is because Tuesday was the seventeenth anniversary of the death of the love of my life and then Friday my dearest friend left for her new home which is two thousand [...]

Million Dollar Smile

June 26th, 2008

I did some sewing today but it was not on the quilt but it was a pillowcase for Mignon’s grandson.  He loves Spiderman and I saw this fabric as I was walking through Walmart the other day so bought a yard and then it took me about thirty minutes to make.   The first words after [...]

Finally Found It

June 25th, 2008

Two of the blocks for Mignon’s quilt are pictures that were transferred to fabric using a printer.  The pictures were trimmed and attached to the white background fabric but they did not look finished and I knew that just doing wide satin stitch around the edges would not be what I wanted.  I bought three [...]

Seventeen Years Ago

June 24th, 2008

Seventeen years ago at six in the morning my world as I knew it fell apart. Don the love of my life and the man for whom I waited for thirty-six years died of a heart attack. He was such a good man and it seemed so unfair to me that he [...]

I Can Relax A Little

June 22nd, 2008

Talked with Mignon this morning after church and learned that she is leaving for Montana on Friday morning so I thought to myself that would give me four days to finish the quilt and take to her on Thursday night.  Tonight I was talking with her again and learned that she will be flying out [...]

Purple Crepe Myrtle

June 19th, 2008

I wonder what is up with the date.  I wrote this on Wednesday night.  When something is saved it is always Pacific time which is two hours behind my time but guess the posted time must be Central.  Will have to do some experimenting.
Until Sunday night I had never seen purple crepe myrtle but there [...]

Terrific Tuesday

June 17th, 2008

In the summer we only have Bible study once a month and today was our June meeting and it was very informative and enjoyable.  After the study we had a potluck lunch which was delicious.  I think this was the first time I have ever been to a potluck meal where there was no dessert.   [...]

Things Are Moving Along

June 16th, 2008

This morning I started working on the quilt quite early and was at it until about six thirty when Mignon called and wanted to know if I would like to go to Jonesboro to eat after she spent some time at Curves.  Of course I said yes and she came by to pick me up.  [...]
