A.C. Moore

I went to A. C. Moore today to buy t-shirts for the cancer walk. I have an idea for the new logo or saying. I want to have three names on the shirt. My thoughts are to put Bettie, Janie, and Hope's name on the shirt.

Restful Day!

Came home and relaxed . . .

Busy Day!

Multi-tasking is so stressful, but I got several things accomplished this morning. I sold myself short, but it was for two senior citizens. I practically gave my quilts away.  Janet was so appreciative. I took the quilt to her and I also did some work at the church (food pantry). I was exhausted. I had to go to Joann's to pick up batting. I spent more than I was suppose to.

A Small Celebration

Today is Richard's birthday, so I went a little out for him, and got him an ice cream cake, and some dinner to celebrate his day. I also gave him some money. This year I wanted to give each of my siblings and my children money for their birthday. To date I have done that; one to go.

Birthday Celebrations!

Tonight we are celebrating August and September birthdays with the senior quilters. We ate, talked and shared cards. I really enjoy working with the seniors.

I'm Back!

It's been almost a month now that I haven't put my all in all into my sewing/quilting. I got stuck! Last night I started. I added my first border to a quilt top that I'm completing to sell on Saturday. I'm so glad I'm back! I missed my Teacups last night because my knee was bothering me, so instead I started my project. I am moving forward. I also have to clean up my sewing room. It's so unorganized.

Blogging . . .

I watch videos and read magazines, books, and some articles on quilting to get ideas for my quilt blog. I want to keep my blog up to date; so I need to blog at least once a month. My Pieces to Patch quilt blog is at a stand still. I look for direction and I need a spark. I need something to share with quilters; shortcuts, how-to's, something that will spark someone's curiosity and make them want to follow my blog.

Moving on . . .

I have to move on.

Nothing Accomplished

I'm at at stand still. I know what I want to do, but the flame is low. I can't get started.

92014

I forgot to blog. Still haven't done any quilting. Had a good day Sunday; Trust in God!

Nothing . . .

Nothing from nothing leaves nothing. If I don't start there will be notning to give. I have to be that late night quilter again. I cant let go.

It's fixed 91814

I finally got my washing machine fixed. I'm so happy and the repair tech was so nice and jovial. He got there at 8:10 am. I was so glad that he arrived early and was completed within fifteen minutes. He had conversation and smiles while he worked.

Time to tackle . . .

It's time to tackle my sewing room again. It's out of control and I have to put it back in order.

Not tonight . . .

I didn't quilt tonight. Instead I washed clothes; thanks to Theresa. The electrician came to fix the problem with the electricity in the two bedrooms. So I stayed home because of this.

No pressure . . .

Sometimes you have to stand still or just let go and see what happens. I don't know what this day will bring but I will move through it as I'm suppose to.

Not sure . . .

I feel sick with myself today. Not ill, I have a knot in my stomach and I want to run away. I am still not sure of who I am and what I really want. I saw Penn with someone today and I had that same feeling that I had at the wedding. I am not growing. I'm not Letting Go! I think I'm fooling myself. I need help.

Moses 91314

We had a great day yesterday.

Not a Good Steward

I continue to mess up. Instead of decreasing my bills. I'm increasing them. I think I'm doing good but making more bills isn't being a good steward of my finances. I do have a goal of being debt free in three to four years with God's will.

Seniors Tonight . . .

Tonight is our first day back with the seniors. I can't wait. I had a good day. I felt good seeing Penn and siting next to him at the funeral. It was sad but joyous because Arthur lived a full and good life.

Moving Forward. . . .

Last night was great; just being with my quilt buddies gives me a charge. I did start on something new. I still have to complete my stocking and think about handmade items that I'm going to fill it with. I have to go to the church this morning to work on the food pantry apps and put up banners and posters that I made.

Teacups Tonight!

I'm not sure what I'm going to work on but I will go out tonight. I have to work on my IGMINISWAP. I'm still trying to figure out my partners likes. I can't get her on Instagram.

Too Much!

When you least expect it a wrench is thrown in the wheel. I know I handled the situation wrong, but I was so angry at hearing what my nephew is doing to his mom. I was more reactive instead of being proactive. I have to be level headed and not let this happen again.

High Time in the Lord! 9714

God's spirit moved through our service today. The spirit touched my son through music and song. I was so thankful for how God is slowly moving in my son. I thank God for His protection.

Celebration!

Today we are celebrating my oldest grandsons birthday or I should say he's having a party. His birthday was August 28th. It fell during the week and of course his mother and father hadn't decided on whether he would have a gathering, but he is. A bowling party! WooHoo! It should be fun for him.

Reading is Fundamental

I haven't spent time reading or finishing a book that I was reading in a long time. I was picking up some quilting book that I reserved from the library and came across a novel Till The Well Runs Dry. The cover caught my eye; at least the sewing machine and colorful quilt like dress on the cover was captivating, so I decided to get it along with the other six books I was picking up. It was a rather thick novel; for me anyway. I began reading it and got so caught up in the story that I found it hard to put it down. Anyway I'm proud to say I finished the book and enjoyed it immensely.

Fee's Day

I have to take Fee to the doctor. It's time for her physical.

Be Productive

Today I have to be productive. I have to work on completing some things today. I want to make sure that I don't forget to do what I have planned. I am not trying to do everything; just a few things.

Lazy Day . . .

Today is a lazy hazy day for me. I started out with energy and then it poofed out of me.
