Another Double Day

Yesterday started out with quilting at moms. There were 5 of us. I was able to get more quilting done on Katt's black and white quilt. It's about half way now. I'm really excited about getting more done.

I left moms around 2 pm. I had to stop and get some stuff at Walmart. I bought Sophie some dishes for her food. Then I also go a bug for her to play with. She loved it!

Patrick made it home and then we were off to the casino. The good news is that we made some money. Then we went to the Dwight Yoakam Show. It was really good. I like the show before his. Then when he showed up, the sound was so loud!! Patrick gave me some kleenex to fill my ears in. It helped, but not near as much as I needed. I felt so funny after the show, my ears were still reeling because of the loudness. It took a good 10 mins before I felt normal again. I try not to get too close to a lot of loud sounds.

We went out to eat before hand. It was really nice. I guess we can call it "date night."

Today I was up around 6:30 am - would have loved to sleep longer, but just couldn't. So, got up and played a few games while I waited on Patrick to get up.

I got a call from one of my QOV gals that lives down here. She agrees with me, that we need to get a group down here. We both were bothered by the last meeting. We want to get a group going down here. So, I chatted with her and said I would send an email to the Museum to see if they would let us meet there and work with them on getting the Veterans honored. I'm hoping he will be willing to talk to us.

I spend the afternoon putting "coke rewards" in. I needed to get rid of the lids and the paper codes that I had. It was a box full, so it took me about 3 hour to enter the codes for the two schools. I put some codes toward Centralia Christian School and Clarkston High School. Katt asked me to put them to Clarkston and not WF West in Chehalis. So, I honors her wishes since she game me some of the codes.


I got to work on the Sept cross stitch. I had to find my other pattern, because I missed a couple things on the last piece. So, I went back and finished what was missing and I worked on getting more done on this months.


So, you can compare what I did with these two photos. I have the basket done, but have to add a few things around it. I'm bringing the border down, to be able to finish off the summer block.

Sophie dumped one of my plants, so we had to clean it up. Then we removed the plant from the living room and put it in one of the other rooms she doesn't go into without us. At this rate all my plants will be in their own rooms. She's playing with my big plant by the door, and when I wake up in the morning, I find leaves and stems all over the place where she's been playing with it!! GRR. So, I'm trying to limit her getting to my good plants. I can hope! The fun part now is to remember that's where my plants are.....ugh.

I'm having fun. I'm enjoying this weekend. I have bowling twice tomorrow. I'm driving down to Longview. So, I won't be able to be Happy Stitching/Happy Quilting!!
