Spending Time With Mom

Today I was up early. Had to get moving for my Physical Therapy appointment. It was at 9 am, so I wasn't used to being up at 7:30 am anymore. I tend to be up around 8-9:30 am. It was different. 

I spend the hour working on my walking down the hall. I had been poked as well. But it felt good after. I forgot my stick and wished I had taken it. 

Afterward, I went to moms. We worked on the 4 1/2" squares she had. She's been making more 9-patches, but I can't figure her out lately. She was really good about picking colors for quilts and how to organize them. But she was putting all blue in the 9-patches. Then she wanted to put a busy color for the squares between. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. I told her to go through the stack and put the same fabric together for the 5 squares and then add the 4 whites. I went through her stacks. We both matched them up. I can't believe how much we matched up! She's got enough for at least 5 quilts. Then we took a break about noon and had lunch. Once that was over, I headed home. I had to stop at the post office, then Safeway. I forgot why I went to Safeway and had to turn around and go back once I got home. Then when I was at Safeway, I found I had to wait. I decided I wasn't going to wait and headed home. Just as I was leaving, I had a text from Rita that the Gala quilt was done. So, I stopped at the church and got it. Then came home. 

I played on my tablet today. I was just tired of running around and by the time I got home it was 3:30 pm. I decided I didn't want to do anything if I didn't have to. I did enough for the day. I listened to my book as I played. I finished it, and decided I would listen to the last book before going to the other books I have on loan. The books seem to keep my interest lately. 

Now it's bedtime and I still wasn't Happy Stitching/Happy Quilting!
