What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

I had to be at the physical therapists by 9 am today.  Patrick headed to go golfing and I was busy with getting up and getting ready. I arrived a little early. So, was messing with my phone. When I went in, he put me to my limits. Not fun but needed. We decided for me to stop wearing the brace for a week to see if the brace is part of the problem of not healing very fast. When I came out of the visit, mom was standing there. She wanted to make sure they got the message she ...

 Today was Sunday in case you didn't know. 

We had our free gifts at the casino today. I thought we were just going to pick up the free gift. Patrick decided to stay and play. So, we got our cooler and put it in the car, then went to play. We played for about 4 hours. Then came home with about $700. So, a good day for us. It was crowded so we decided not to stay. 

Came home and I had to do a letter for Bryan along with a few other things. By the time I was ...

 This morning, I wanted to work on the ornament before heading out to Olympia for my doctor's appointment. I was able to get some done and ended up with half of it already done. 

This morning, we were up early and out the door to Olympia. 

We stopped at the Old Spaghetti Factory for lunch. It was awesome! Food ...

Patrick went golfing and I got up as he was leaving. I called Ron to walk early because of the weather. We got a good 6 laps in this morning. 

Next thing I needed to do was get laundry in and go out to pick berries. 

Bush was full today. 

And I spend a good hour and 15 mins picking! I didn't get them all because I needed to get ready to meet up with Kim for lunch. I did get 6 1/2 cups of blueberries today though. Took some to Phil. 

Then I was off to see ...

Today was a good day for enjoying the beautiful weather. 

This is the road Ron and I walk on. It's really pretty today. I loved the sky blue going from light to dark. There is houses there, but the trees cover them. 

This morning I was up before Patrick. Then I went walking with Ron. 

Came back in the house and figured it was time for me to go down and get a few things done. I needed to get the quilt top done and off. 

I trimmed the sides, because it was way too wide. But now it will work. Patrick liked ...

This morning, I was up a little early to play my war game. I needed to be available for attacks. Funny though, we lost. 

Then I got ready for the movie. We decided to go to 'Inside Out 2' and I liked it. It was a little bit of being on your seat waiting to see what will happen. 

After the movie, we stopped at Phil's to get his gift to Patrick for Father's Day. He made cookies for him. Patrick didn't want much and he likes Phil's desserts, so cookies were perfect. 

Came home and ...

This morning. I enjoyed being able to sleep in. When I did get up, I made some blueberry muffins for breakfast. I really love the recipe I have. They turned out great. 

Walked with Ron. We got a good 5 laps in; I couldn't do any more. Then he wanted to show me his flowers. I fell in love with the climbing flower. I'm not sure what it is, but it's big and pretty. 

He bought some roses for the yard as well. He's going to put them in the back. They were really pretty, but ...

Happy 4th of July! I love all the patriotic stuff! 

But our day was pretty much to ourselves. We headed over to moms around 3 pm and played games with Nancy and mom. Patrick worked outside today before we headed over there. 

My day was spent working on QOV stuff. Both Val and Debbie came over to drop off and pick up QOV stuff. Debbie brought me 2 quilts that need the binding stitched on. I will stitch those down. I know mom and Nancy will be awhile before they stitch the 5 quilts they have that needs binding. Connie ...

Patrick was off to golfing today. Not sure if he will go tomorrow since his partner doesn't want to wait till 8:30 or 9 to golf. He wants to get started at 8 am. Patrick can't figure out why he couldn't wait a half hour. Oh, well. 

I spend the morning getting laundry going, fixing a certificate, cutting backing for Connie, and then washing the fabric. While I got all that done, I baked a cake - "Lazy Daisy Cake." It's one of Patrick's moms recipe. 

About that time Patrick came home. I was starting ...

 This morning I had a few things to do before going to moms. I had to stop at the bank and then Connie's. Dropped off my quilt top but realized the backing was still in the dryer! So, I'll have to drop it off on Monday. Mom called me at 10 am to see if I was coming. Told her I was on the bridge and would be there in 5 mins. 

I arrived to only 2 people already there. There was one quilt done that I put in the back of the car. Then Hildi arrived when ...

This morning I realized I forgot to give the church the threads they asked for. Wasn't sure if we would be going out or not. So, I just picked up a few things and played games. Then Patrick said he wanted his Rice Krispies treats. Which meant I needed to go into town after all. 

I stopped and visited with Lisa when I dropped off the threads. Then off to Safeway for the stuff to make his Rice Krispies. Picked up some fried chicken. Stopped at Phil's to pick up his plants. Patrick had him start plants for ...

We didn't have our BE meeting today. So I was able to sleep in for a little bit. I was enjoying sleeping in. 

When I did get moving. I worked on my beading. 

Okay, give me credit - I haven't tried to plan anything in a long time.....till today.....and we all know how that works for me. 

Patrick was golfing this morning. I had to get some cleaning done before I wanted to sit down and cross stitch. I vacuumed and did the dishwasher when Patrick came home. He wanted to go get some flower pots today for our deck. 

We picked up 4 and got a different pot for mom. That's for Mother's Day. 

They look great on the deck!

Then I gave some TLC to Sophie. Before ...

First off - HAPPY VALENTINES DAY! Today was a good day. We woke to snow. 

The funny part is that Centralia didn't get any snow. Just us south of Chehalis. 

Patrick was given some chocolate covered strawberries yesterday. He was enjoying them. He also shared. They were good. But I don't thing they will be that great tomorrow. lol It was 4 large strawberries. 

I worked on the jigsaw puzzle. Yep, no photo. Just realized that. I'm getting there, but the building are a little ...

 Today was a day of doing Nothing! I really didn't do a thing. Except maybe laundry. Other than that, nothing. I played my games, had tea, and just tried to get my FB page to work right. Still haven't done that. 

So, I'm sorry to say, today was not a day of Happy Stitching/Happy Quilting!

 The day started out with me stopping at McD's for tea and coffee. Then on the way to the grange. I arrived to find Sandy II there. She came from Ocean Shores. We had a good chat and I showed her the piece I was working on for the guide. She helped me with what I needed to do. Trouble was, I didn't realize there wasn't instructions for the small flower. Which meant I was on my own. 

We sat and chatted for awhile before Sandy I came in. A half hour later Cindy arrived. 

I was ...

 This morning I had to get a few things done before taking time to bead. I had to get laundry going, put dishes away, and clean the bathroom. 

Patrick was golfing. Then he came back and got supper started. While he was out at the BBQ, he brought in the tomatoes from the garden. 

Once all that was done, I decided to sit and bead. 

I started to work on the sleeve. I figured it would be better to go down a few beads and start there. I got 13 rows done. It's not coming out the way I ...

Today we got up, dropped off some stuff at Phil's, then to Fuller's for donuts. We decided to have breakfast  on the way to moms. 

We were taking mom up to Olympia to get a new dishwasher. When we got there, we tried to get a break in cost, but the guy wouldn't go down. It's fine because it was on sale already. She decided on the cheapest one, because she didn't need all the bells and whistles. It's a nice one. I like the new ones where it will do special water cleaning ...
