My Uncle Was In Town

Today started out being "my day" and ended up being everyone's day.

I was able to sleep in, so I was happy about that. Sophie actually slept with me till about 4:30 am and then came back later to sleep with me after Patrick left. She was at my feet. It was nice having her there and it reminded me of my black cat "Nipper" who would sleep at the head of my bed with me.

I got up and did some cleaning. Got laundry in and vacuumed. Sophie wasn't crazy about that. But she did spend the day with me.

I worked on my genealogy. Add more names and got more information. It was nice to add more name even though they are not my direct line.

Mom called to say Uncle Bob and Aunt Dale where in town and wanted to go to lunch. I said I'd meet them in about 45 mins, but after about 10 mins, I called and said I had some stuff I needed to do, so wouldn't meet them. We would meet them at the casino later tonight for supper. They were good with that.

While I enjoyed watching Netflix to get caught up on the shows I like to watch, I stitched.

I started on August's stitching. I was thrilled at how fast it was going. Then Sophie came and sat down in my lap.

So I called it quits since Patrick would be coming in a few minutes.

We went to the casino to meet Aunt, Uncle and mom. They went early - as we did. Ran into them when we arrived but said we would play for an hour before we went to eat. Patrick won big. It was nice to win again. We didn't tell them, because it was Uncle's turn to pay. lol

Came home and the neighbors came over to see Sophie. They will be watching here later and we wanted them to get to know her. Sophie wasn't having any of that. But I bet she will when they come over to feed her. lol

Got home and had to take a few pictures of Patrick's plants.

All in all, it was a good day. It was good to see Uncle Bob, even though at times he reminds me of dad. I do miss my dad. We had a good time and I told them to come down some time and stay the night. Patrick and Uncle can go golfing. They said they would think about it, and try to come.

Life is good, and I'm always Happy Stitching/Happy Quilting!
