Trip To Shipwrecked Beads - Olympia

 Actually, I think Shipwrecked is in Lacey, not Olympia.

I was up and out the door by a quarter to 9. I was heading to Sandy's. It was so good to see her again, and we planned this trip in May but never made it. Today we finally did!

Stopped to get drinks and Sandy gave me "shit" for putting a straw in her coffee. She was laughing so hard it was comical! Funny part is that I use a straw with my drinks from DBs. lol 

I was hooked! I found most of what I was looking for but was disappointed the shelves were pretty much empty. There wasn't a lot of one thing. I hate it when "out of stock" shows in the area where I wanted to buy what I needed. I went up there for a couple things and both of what I needed was "out of stock." When you walk into the store, it looks packed. Till you wonder around and find it 2/3's empty in places. 

Of course I had a lot to buy! This was one of the few isles that were pretty full. I spent a LOT of money, but we usually only go about once a year. So, this was my big buy. This is what I needed for my ornaments that I need to get moving on. 

Got back and had to run to the museum for 2 quilts. Alice called to say the Veterans booth at the fair didn't have any quilts or red, white or blue stuff. She wanted to borrow a couple quilts. I will get them to her on Monday. I have to get some stuff to Val for Tuesday. Next week, will be busy, busy, busy! 

Came home and went to work on one of the quilt tops. I had to add a border to 2 of them and finish mine. So, I pulled out mom and Val's quilt to add the blue border. Now it's ready for Colleen to quilt. I will drop it off on Monday. 

Then I took the rest of the night off and played plundering games. I had a blast. So, now I'm calling it a night and will probably sleep like the dead. lol But at least today I was Happy Quilting/Happy Stitcing!

Casino AND Sewing

We left for the casino around 10 am. It was a fun day. We played for a while, but not as long as we were hoping. We left around 2 pm. We won...
