Last night the dinner that Christy prepared was delicious. Her new recipe for roast beef was delicious. After dinner we sent the boys to Wal-Mart to pick up some ice cream and while they were gone I got the kitchen cleaned up and the table all set up for us to play poker. I enjoy [...]
I hit the floor running this morning at eight forty-five for there is a lot to do before Scott gets home this evening. I was going to cook tonight but Christy has a roast beef recipe that she wants to try so I told her to go for it. It is a great deal more [...]
It is a beautiful sunny Sunday afternoon but it is hot as blazes. I just checked the temperature and it is ninety-nine degrees and with the heat index it is one hundred and four degrees. When you walk out of a cool building, the heat just takes your breath away. I do not like the [...]
The last time I talked with Scott he was planning to come home tomorrow evening. He is attending a two day conference in Dallas and decided that since he was already an hour nearer home that he would come on home. He will be in Cambodia on Brian’s birthday so he is coming to celebrate [...]
I have been so good about getting to bed at a decent hour every night and then last night it was a little after two in the morning before I finally crawled into bed. I decided to get out all the new fabrics that I had bought and get them washed. Since it is supposed [...]

A few minutes after noon today I finished the quilt. I am more convinced than ever that I am tired of quilting and want to do something else. Maybe that will encourage me to get the unfinished quilts from Mom G finished and the baby quilts made and given and then I can forget about [...]
Woke up much later than I had intended to Monday morning but guess I needed the sleep. I know I could have set the alarm clock but I hate waking up to that loud buzz. My vision was somewhat blurry but I managed to get the appliqués completed with straight stitches. Actually they were zigzag [...]
It is a beautiful Sunday here in the bayous of Louisiana. Sunday School and Church this morning were great as usual. Father’s Day is somewhat sad for me mainly because my sons no longer have a father. My father has been dead since 1968 and I never knew my father-in-law for he died years before [...]
Here it is the last day of the week which means that I have two days, Monday and Tuesday, after today to get the quilt finished. I am going to make it. I would be more finished than I am but I keep changing my mind about how I want to quilt the front. When [...]
