• Summer Fun Continues

  Sunday was a recovery and prep for the coming week day. Not much to write about.

  Monday I babysat Jax. We had a lot of fun.  Here he is drawing.  He shot some hoops, pushed the laundry basket around the kitchen–the cats would hop in, he’d push and they’d hop out.  The cats were not nearly as amused as Jax & I were. We read some books, ate some snacks, took a nap.  Thought about going outside in the wagon but decided it was too hot.  Time to fill up the swimming pool (child size).  It’s supposed to be in the 90′s the next few days. 

  this morning I was one of three…quilters, not Borg.  It was an interesting time. Lots of chatting along with the stitching.  I was a little sad that my mom’s quilt top wasn’t in a frame yet.  She’s next “in line” but there are still 2 quilts not quite finished.  There are 3 frames, so people could work on 3 different quilts, if that many showed up.  I opted to work on the one that just had straight lines to start with.  It’s been a few years since I sat down and quilted on a frame.  My back & shoulders were ready to break for lunch at noon.  

  I can’t claim I was “Army” ambitious, but I had the mailbox sanded & first coat of white paint on it by 9 AM.  That’s when quilting started. I have a long list of things to do this afternoon.  Fortunately I can just reheat chicken rice soup at 5 for supper.  I have a library board meeting at 5:30.  I’m glad it’s summer and I don’t have to “work”.
