Think I'm Getting A Cold

This morning, I woke with a stuff head, sore throat, and a headache to boot! So, I told Patrick I would be home sooner than planned. 

I got up around 8 am and got ready to leave. I need to go to the new CVS store (which doesn't take the insurance needed) and picked up some prescriptions. I then stopped to drop off some veggies for Phil. Had a bucket full. Made him come out and get it, since it was too heavy for me. He gave me cucumbers and zucchini. I dropped one of each off at Colleens when I picked up a quilt she did for the Gala. I also took one of the quilts to be quilted so I could give it to Olympia. That way I don't have to get another top done asap. She's headed out tomorrow. Told her NO hurry. I think I gave her a relief when I took the quilt from her. lol 

Then I went to moms. Nancy and Carmen were packed and ready to go on their cruise. They came to the meeting and then left after to head to Portland to get on a flight to Boston. I didn't stay long. There was only Georgie, Nancy, Carmen and mom. I didn't give hugs because I wasn't feeling good. Come to find out a couple of them were feeling pretty bad a few days ago. Just what I needed to hear. I picked up Georgie's duck to work on it. I found she needs to add more applique, so will get it to mom to finish it up for me and then I can finish the backstitching. 


The feet need some yellow in it. I brought it home to do the outlining. 

I stopped at Applebee's to get a gift card. Then I got the car washed. Got home and figured out I took the WRONG receipt! It was the accounting receipt that they need at the end of the day. I called and told them I would drop it off this weekend. Then I felt really bad about having the gals till off, that I went back and dropped it off anyway. 

Got home in time for my war game. To my shock, I'm in the quarter finals and everyone's castle is higher than mine! I don't have enough troops either. I thought I would be out after today, but I made it to the quarter finals. That's next week. 

I decided to work on Georgie's duck. 

I need to add the tongue. Then I have to have mom add the yellow in the feet. Once that's done, I can finish the back stitch. I like how it comes to life with the black floss. It has more character. 

Now, I'm tired and going to call it a day. I can sleep better. Not worrying about the receipt needed to go back to Applebee's is a great relief for me. I did leave the gal a $1 tip for doing that for me. Just wish I had paid more attention before I left. 

As much as I wanted to do more, at least I enjoyed being Happy Stitching/Happy Quilting!
