Another Tuesday - And I'm A Great Aunt Again!

 This morning, we were up early. Neither of us could enjoy the day to sleep in. I would have because the bed was warm, but I just can't stay in bed to stay warm. lol 

I took my time getting ready for the day. When I did, I came in the computer room to work on my recipe blog that I hadn't touched in 3 years. I added a few more recipes to the list. Some sounded good even to me. They are old recipes that came through the generations and from a box I got at an auction. All on cards. Most typed. I think in the 60's it was common to type a recipe one wanted. Mom did that a lot and even the recipes I got from the auction did the same. I will get them typed up yet! I also need to add to the "Letters from the Past" blog I have going. There are just as many letters as there are recipes. 

I received our shipment of backing material for our QOV backings. I'm waiting on the batting, and that should come in tomorrow. 

I love how I can tell them what I want, and he sends it. I give a "vague" idea of what I want, and he hits it out of the park! The ones in the plastic are the ones we got today. I also got 2 bolts for JoAnn to use for pillowcases. She's been getting a lot of those done lately. This will help her out.

I was able to sit and do some cross stitching. 


 Got a couple hours in on cross stitching. Have the mouth done and working on the face to the left. It ended up being that time to head to the movies when I got this far. 

We went to see the movie, "Moana 2" which was really good! A couple families brought their kids and there was a couple couples like us. So, it's not only a movie for kids. I just loved it. It was fun and exciting. Just as good as the first one. Not like some that make it close to the first one. 

Stopped at Safeway and picked up some stuff for tomorrow and Patrick to have breakfast. Then came home. We didn't get out of the parking lot when my brother texted me that his first granddaughter was born today around 6:00 pm our time. He even sent a photo of my nephew, his wife and the baby. It's so cool. He's heading down there for the weekend and then coming back up to head to Australia for his cruise. 

 I didn't get any time to sit and work on my cross stitching, but I'm happy that I could find the time to be Happy Stitching/Happy Quilting!
