Taxes done, whew! Shipshe to look forward to...

I can't wait for the return...maybe a flat screen TV for my bedroom? Something fun anyway...

I sent in my reservation for Shipshe. JoAnn and I asked to be in the room next to the Shikken Sisters.....I can't wait!

Good article to share on relationships and obsessive hobbies. Does quilting count as obsessive?

Oh no! More Snow!

Icky! I hate snow! I should have taken a picture of my car before I cleaned it off...driver's side was snow free...and the passenger side was buried under an 8" snow drift. How weird is that?

I am looking forward to the weekend. I need to finish the applique center for the Jo's Little Women's club project before Thursday's meeting. We are going to demo how to do applique by basting from the back...for the 3rd or 4th time....the ladies keep asking for it.

No Ambition...such a bum!

Man, I have absolutely no ambition these days. Spending too much time hurting or doing physical therapy. I need to get back into my quilting. I need to get into the groove again. Where did all my creativity go? WAH!

Good To Have A Goal!

I have a goal....I want to be six feet tall. Now from the way I see it, I am going to need a year in traction and some high heels...but I should be able to accomplish that. Holey moley, is traction fun or what? This is the first time I have been in one of those machines...determined little devil it was...pull and pull and pull...soon, Debbie is 6 feet tall! YAHOO! Then I can finally reach the top cupboard.

Happy Valentines day to my friends! I think I am going to get my tax stuff ready and then do some quilting. I haven't done much of that since my back has been hurting so bad. Phooey on pain!

Yeah Weekend!

Big day today! Katie came over (with Buddy the Large Lab) and we made breakfast. Buddy and Jett have a great time playing together...Buddy is 90 pounds and Jett is 10 pounds...kind of interesting to see how careful Buddy is with Jett.

Let's see...then we went and raided Cub Foods...$240 later and a trunk full of food...went home to watch a movie. That is where we are right now...except Katie decided to take Buddy and the groceries home and then come back. We are going to watch Mystery Men.

Tonight, my sister-in-law has a concert with the Twin Cities Women's Choir. I can't wait. The music is always wonderful.

No New News...sigh

Well...how disappointing is that. I figured the doctor would fix all my back issues today but she didn't. Sigh....at least she is going to sign me up for physical therapy. That should help some.

Junior got scared again today. We had someone come in and fix the smoke detector...I kind of ripped it off the ceiling in my efforts to stop the beeping...and he tested it so Junior got the full dose of horrible noise. Poor baby!

I was in a quilt class with JoAnn last night. She is a difficult student. You can't keep her on task to save her soul! Runs around all over the place. I was a star pupil...of course! I am glad she doesn't read my blog. I would get called a Diva and much worse, I am sure.

Wasted Sunday

Not so much today...Junior was scared out of his mind last night...
It seems Mom's smoke detector was beeping periodically...needed a new battery...and it was scaring my little doggie to death. He was panting and pacing and wouldn't calm down. Poor little guy!

Anyway, that leaves me pretty tired out today. I am going to press the fabric I need for tomorrow night's Back Home Again class at Four Seasons Quilts...then, who knows...dig around in my Jo fabric to see what I want to use for my next big Jo project...

Katie and I went to Sam's Club and Cub this morning so all the grocery shopping is done..poor Ma had to put a bunch of junk away...I am good at getting it into the house but that is about it for me...Oh yeah, I eat it too...
