How did it get to be the end of June already? I have not met any goals this month. Not that I set many goals. I just did not do them. I did prep about ten 50th Anniversary Quilt aka Ella blocks this past weekend but did not actually do any sewing. Yet. I am, however, four chapters into writing my new book The ABCs of How to Stay Married for 50 Years. I guess I need a short form. How does 50ABCs sound?
I am not sure what happened the past 2 days, but suddenly human people have been popping out of the woodwork and and dropping in to visit and bringing their kids along. My granddaughters are in seventh heaven having girls their age to play with. Today my sister went to visit another sister for the day and came home with a 9 year old for a sleepover. Her first here. Could this have anything to do with why no sewing here this week?
My friend Chooky is hosting a zoom meeting this Friday night my time. I am looking forward hanging out with my quilting friends. There is always room for more. The cleaning lady will be in and we are actively decluttering a lot of the stuff in my old quilt room since I have been moving up to the new room. It is smaller, but I will have everything in the same room and much less traffic. And what will the old room be when the dust settles and the cleaning lady does her thing? A new playroom for the grandkids. I'm not telling them until it is done. Okay. They already play in here but there will be more room and less clutter. And we might bring in one of the big screen TV's.
July 1st is fast approaching. This means a new OMG. It means a new RSC colour and a new free pattern for Poppy's Polka Dot Garden It means the start of the Macaron Mystery. It also means I have to pay the property taxes and I cannot find the invoice telling me how much the sewers, fire hydrants, street lights, sidewalks, city water, and parks that we have no access to will cost us this year.
See you in a couple of days,
Blessings,
Dr. Chris
I think you did well to to get all those blocks prepped so thats a big job done......
ReplyDeleteI think the room swap sounds like it will work much better for you.........
Looking forward to catching up soon.....zoom zoom.......ive got to get some stuff sorted so I know what I am working on......
Well done with the prep and have fun with your rearranging....
ReplyDeleteHope to catch up with you on Zoom ........
How about The ABC's for a Successful 50 Year Marriage? Visitors are great, but they do take away quilting time! We have 2 more days to SA for doctors and then we are going to be free of those checkups.
ReplyDeleteI have finally found a wonderful, experienced, and responsible house cleaner! Saves my back. We de-cluttered about 2 years ago before we had new carpet laid in the entire house. Makes the house more enjoyable!
Enjoy your new room and bet those babies will like it! hugs
Hope your "little" move works better for you...and EnJoY writing the book too...xox
ReplyDeleteSeems like you still managed to fit in a lot for June, and how did July come around so soon? Hope to see you on Zoom.
ReplyDeleteThat prep work takes a lot of time. Hopefully you have a little stitch time this month. Moving things is such a pain but it sounds like you have a nice little area perfect for stitching. The new book sounds great!
ReplyDeleteHope to see you at zoom today! I didn't set any June goals because I knew I would be so busy!
