Ooh, Klaws...those are great names. Thank you! They'll move to the top of the list for next time. I believe you are right about mail tomorrow. Good prep day though.

Get this, Klaws, yesterday my old Kenmore machine began making a never before heard clunking noise. A trip to the repair guy is now a necessity for it too. Oh, dear! I've got a cheapie little portable but I wouldn't want to make all my blocks on it. Well, I'll deal with the problem sometime next week.

So, Boomers, I'm running behind with my emails and dedicated posts. I got sidetracked yesterday by things that "had" to be done. Nothing serious, just non-ignorable events. Anyway, I'm back at it and am proofreading everything, eliminating any all-caps words from my posts that somehow keep sneaking in when I'm not thinking clearly, double-checking dates, etc. I know there will be something I forget or mix up so as always, bear with me.

Be looking for dedicated posts within the hour and your emails shortly after that. Please be sure to read the email in it's entirety and then hit "reply". Doing so confirms you've gotten it as well as your acceptance of the rules. Thanks so much!

It's been snowing here all day and are expected to get 6" to 9" before it's finished. They are predicting a lot of wind and really cold temps with windchill below 0. That's okay because I'm not planning on going anywhere. I joined the wall hanging swap and have been working on that. Unfortunately, my machine kind of seized up on me. I have to try and figure out what is wrong with it. I do have an older machine that I might have to get out and do a little maintenance on it. We'll see what happens. I've got to have a working machine before I get my boom package!!!

I don't think there will be any mail on Monday since it is Martin Luther King day.
