What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

This morning, I had things to do and left early. I had to stop at Colleen's to drop off her dish and towel. Then I headed to DB to get my tea. Next stop was the bank. Finally, I was off to Georgie's. 

Bonnie and Sandy came after I did. We had such a good time. Laughing about all kinds of things. We also talked about Bev who passed away about 3 years ago. Found out her husband passed away about 5 weeks ago. Sandy was saying her 4 children were looking for the will. Sandy helped them ...

 This morning, I was up and ready to go. I took down some of my embroidery pieces. Gerilyn's mother was coming and she asked for us to bring some of our work. 

I had to stop at LCPUD to drop off the electric bill. I thought they would be closed, but they were open. Then I remembered some businesses are open today so they could get the Friday after Thanksgiving off. Then it was to Colleen to drop off her honey and check on the quilts she needed bound. I told her mom wasn't back yet and Georgie ...

This morning, Patrick was getting ready for his nurse to come. I was getting ready to leave for our embroidery meeting. I had a list of things to do, but it didn't work out as I planned. 

First, I stopped and dropped off 2 bags full of tomatoes for Phil & Emily. They can a lot. Then I headed to Dutch Brothers for my tea. Once that was done, I headed to Georgie's for embroidery. I dropped off some reds and blues for her to work on blocks for quilts. I also gave her some embroidery kits for her ...

This morning, Patrick's nurse came around 8:30 am. I left shortly after. He texted me to let me know they took the vac off. I was busy going to get moms mail and watering her plants before heading to Georgie's. I ended up throwing most of her mail out because it was junk or asking her to sign up for a credit card. 

I arrived early at Georgie's. Funny too because both Gerilyn and Sandy V were early as well. We sat and chatting while we each worked on our stuff. Gerilyn and Georgie were binding ...

This morning, I was almost late to embroidery. I had to load the truck up for going, then head to Colleen's. Patrick didn't wake me up, so I was up at 8:30 am and had to be out the door by at least 9:10. I was out the door close to that. Arriving at Colleens around 9:30 am. Put my stuff in the car for embroidery. I took the quilt that needed to be bound. 

We stopped at Dutch Brothers and then went to moms to collect the Garage Sale stuff. Once that was done ...

 This morning I had a list of things to do. One was heading to the bank and then to City Hall. I stopped at City Hall to see the Police Chief and City Manager. I gave them some applications for veterans. I also enjoyed chatting with Stacey since I haven't seen him in years. We chatted like old friends. That put me behind. I stopped at DB and it was busy. So, I had to wait. I told them I wasn't happy that the last 2 times I ordered a drink for Debbie, they gave me a medium ...

This morning, I needed to get the backing and batting done for Colleen. Then I got another quilt to take to the church. I had to pick one up, and asked if she could take another. 

First, went to the church, got a quilt, dropped one off. Second, went to PUD to drop off a check, then to McD's for breakfast. Once that was done, I went to Dutch Brothers for tea. Got one for mom as well. 

Arrived, dropping off the quilt at moms. Gerilyn and Bonnie were there. I didn't feel like working on anything, so ...

This morning I was off to moms. I took both my bags in the house. I wasn't sure what I would do. I pulled out the embroidery piece that I usually work on when I'm waiting for Patrick. I was able to get some leaves done and found I still have another area to work on. 

I then helped mom with her Apple TV. She needed to renew her subscription ...

This morning, I was out the door with a bolt of fabric and some jam for mom. I stopped by her place to drop them off. We were meeting at Georgie's today because of mom having a cleaning lady stop by to clean her place and talk about when she will be coming. Mom walked over to Georgie's for about an hour and walked back. I was proud of her walking! She usually takes her car. Then I realized when I went back to mom's it was because Debbie (cleaning lady) was in her driveway. lol 

We ...

I woke to the phone ringing at 9 am. It was my cousin Bryan. He needs me to do something for him, but I will wait till tomorrow. After I hung up with him, I took my shower. Then to get another phone call from Kaiser about the medication they are sending me. I had to know how much it would cost me per month. It's $100 a month to get my medication for cholesterol. It's only 2 applications a month. It's like an allergic pin. I can't spell all the stuff I need to, so ...

 This morning, I was out the door and headed to moms. 

Today is BE at moms. But since neither Geralyn or Sandy came, it was just mom, Georgie and Bonnie. So, I really didn't feel like working on anything, just chatted. 

Yesterday, mom turned 91. So, I went to Safeway this morning and picked up a cake for her. I thought there would be more at our meeting, but as it turned out, there was only three of us. Georgie, mom and myself. 

I took my beading. I also took some fabric for mom and Georgie to work with. They almost have one of the panel quilts done. Since mom had to go get her teeth cleaned at 11 am, Georgie and I chatted. I was able to get part of the next ornament done. 

I finished three of them there ...

This morning, I had to go down and cut batting and backing to take to Colleen this afternoon. 

I was out the door and at moms about 10 minutes late. Sandy from Ocean Shores beat me to moms. We had a good visit with everyone. I was working on my rose piece. Mom and Georgie were asking about the quilts they are working on and are almost done with. 

Today, Patrick was off golfing. I got up and out the door. 

First things first. Went to Safeway for meds and they said I had another one and to come back later. So, I headed to moms. I brought some of the cherry breads. I also had some to drop off at Phil's. 

Went to PUD because they gave us a FINAL shut off notice. I asked why I didn't get a curtesy letter. She said they sent one out and they called. Well, the number they called was disconnected. So, we chatted and I told her we ...

 Today I was off to moms. I brought along some iced tea so I wouldn't have to stop. 

Arrived at moms first. Then Gerilyn, Bonnie and Georgie came. We ended up "BSing" more than doing anything else. I did get some work on my embroidery though. 

I was able to get the second one done with the first layer. I am going to have to wire the rest soon. We talked about sourdough bread, mom and her job as a protective payee, Sandy and her health. Just about everything. 

Then I headed home by stopping at Colleens and picking ...

This morning, I was up and working on my embroidery for the class. I was early today. Our class started at 10 am. It wasn't much of doing anything, but a class of what was to come. There wasn't anyone in the class that finished working on the flower petals. We all commented that we would have been closer to being done if we had another week to work on it. Then we went our Loretta's patterns to see what she could offer in the future. Once we finished, my brain was saying, "Seems easy enough." But ...

 This morning, I was up and working on my class piece. I also got a few things done for QOV. I got the certificate that needed to be mailed ready to go. 

We went to the Post Office first, then to Walmart! UGH Wally World! I was lucky and got to the pharmacy right away. Normally there is a long line. Met Patrick at the entrance since he went to get the windshield wipers for the car. It's pretty good that we lasted a good 7 years with the ones we have. Now watch, we will have to replace ...

This morning, Patrick went to meet up with his city friends. All the retired "bosses" get together about every 3 months and BS. 

I was keeping busy with my game for a bit, then I went for my walk. I was able to get 5 laps in without the stick. I wanted to see if I could do it. My ankle did good till the last lap. While I was walking a young deer was coming down the road at me. He then went to the neighbor's drive. 

Then it was time to sit and work on my embroidery ...

This morning, it was our BE meeting. Like I was telling Sandy, we are about to drop out of the group at this rate. We have 6 of us and there are times only mom and I are meeting. I don't mind that much. At least I can spend time with her, and she doesn't get too upset when I don't come around. She did have the certificate that I needed to mail. So, I brought that home. Mom didn't have her earring aides in. She said they didn't charge overnight. I didn't talk ...

 This morning, I slept in again. I'm surprised I'm sleeping so late. Patrick said I snored all night. lol Poor guy. Allergies are back. UGH

I got moving this morning. Didn't play games but did get a few things done before meeting Sandy at the British Tea shop in Centralia. We had lunch there. Talked a good 2 1/2 hours since we haven't seen each other in over 6 months. Please we talked about her heart issues that she's dealing with now. Also talked about everything under the sun. 

Came home around 2:30 ...
