We Lost! Oh, Well!

 Today, I slept in because I could. We didn't have embroidery and probably won't for a while. I did get the mail that I didn't get 2 weeks ago. It all finally arrived. One was from BDEIG stating we are in trouble. Our membership has dropped to below 200 members, and they need help from all of us. I agree but wonder in a way if it's a little late. I tried to tell them when I was on the board that they needed to work on newer designs and different pattern other than flowers. It will be interesting to see if we can pull ourselves out of trouble. 

Then I headed to the bank, car wash, Dutch Brothers and Colleens. I dropped off 2 quilts for her. We chatted about what we need to do. Came home (forgetting to go to the post office) and got online to let everyone know about Saturday's presentation and our Panda Express fundraiser. 

After that, I came into the room to watch a show with Patrick. One of Ken Burns about the Buffalo. I was teary eyed after watching that, to think of what our ancestors did was heart breaking. I know my great grandfather fought the Native Americans during the civil war. He wrote about it. To think those who hunted wanted to kill off the Buffalo for their own gain. Which in turn hurt the Native Americans. Both were hurt not just the Buffalo. I enjoyed the documentary. Well said and well done. 

While I was watching that, I was beading. 


 As soon as this is done, it will be one ornament ready to be put together. I will work on another one and try for three of them. I was happy working on this. Before I started, I was watching YouTube on how to make some pretty earrings and necklaces. I saved them so I could try and do one or two of them. I think Katt might like them as well. I may take a day and work on one later on. Right now I need to get my ornaments under control. lol 

Even though I watched the Mariner's game, I was glad they got as far as they did. I wish they could have won, but there is next year. This was the farthest they have gotten, and it was worth a try. Now we are watching the Seahawks, and so far, they are winning but I'm not staying up to see what happens. Long day and one which I was Happy Stitching/Happy Quilting!
