30 Mins is Better Than None!

Today I was up early. Patrick took the day off. I went to Cherrill's and then came home.

We went to the casino today since we had $20 from the casino. We actually had a good day at the casino. Came home with more than we took.

On the way home, we stopped at Home Depot. We checked out all the grills. Patrick did some homework and found that a grill with all stainless steel parts. We checked out the different kinds and prices. They had a really good one for $269. It had all the stuff we wanted. It wasn't the most expensive and it wasn't the cheapest. So, we're happy with what we got. It was light weight, so I could help Patrick get it in the truck.

Then we stopped off at the mattress store. We tried out a couple of mattresses. I really liked one of them, so we bought a new mattress. It will be arriving tomorrow. I'm thrilled since I've been trying to get Patrick to get me a new mattress for over a year. This one is a little softer and might actually help my back out. We did get a protection cover as well. It's a nice mattress.

Came home with the grill and got it in the garage. Found a handle that was off. Patrick had to fix it. Once we had that all done, it was time to go to the folks for dinner. My niece and her fiance were going to join us. They were still in Olympia when we arrived. Said they would be ready for supper at 6 pm. They actually arrived at 6 pm while the food was ready. They came with another couple. Then my SIL's sister showed up. We had 9 of us at dinner. We didn't stay too long after. Needed to get back and get the phone call on when they would deliver the mattress. I really didn't want to stay long.

We got back. I had to get a couple games I needed to get stuff done on. Then I pulled out my cross stitch and was able to get 30 mins on it before I realized I hadn't done my blog yet. We are watching Sherlock Holmes. It's the older version with Basil Rathbone as the actor. I really like the older versions! This one is really good. Well worth watching!

Life is good, times are great. Things happen and life goes on. What joy! Happy Quilting/Happy Stitching!
