Another Trip To Olympia - Getting Old

This morning, we headed to moms to get in her attic for her quilt frame. I thought we had it, but we didn't. Patrick brought it down and it looks a 100 + years old. Mom got it from a 90-year-old lady in 1978. She said it was her grandmothers quilt frame. So, chances are it's about 125 years old. Mom likes it and is going to set it up. She has a quilt she wants to put on it. Asked her about Ethel's quilt and she said Kathleen is gone for a week, so she can't take it to get basted. Once it's basted, we can get to work on quilting it. Of course, I forgot to give her, her bags that are in the car. And a box of material. 

We headed up to Olympia for Costco. I wanted to be home by 1 pm, which we were. We shopped for Phil and us. Came home and unloaded. 

Patrick was tired after that, so he fell asleep in the chair. I played my game with a little comforting help. 

Then I waited for Patrick to wake up. I made some snacks for him that have Crisps cereal. Turned out really good. I wasn't in the mood for supper, so we just had some snacky things. 

Patrick went to his meeting. Then I wanted to watch CSI as I'm starting from the beginning. Debbie called so, I couldn't watch a good 20 mins of it. Patrick came home shortly after I started it back up. Guess I have to wait. 

I plugged my tablet in and decided to watch TV and try and work on my Santa. 

As much as I hate working on this, I was able to get a good part done. It's not easy, because of the fraying, but I was able to get this far before I decided to quit. If I do this much each time, I may get it finished yet! 

At least I was able to take some time to work on being Happy Stitching/Happy Quilting!

Today, I was enjoying the morning but had to work on a couple things before we headed to Olympia. I needed to get my groups membership going...
