Maybe tomorrow morning early I can bake a cake before it gets too hot and the air turns on.
"Thanks" for the idea - My hips thank you - my belly thanks you - and my bottom thanks you. ROFL and can't get up!

goals You all have goals??? I really look into that. Sounds productive.
Truthfully I did have oen for today which was to finish the binding on the baby quilt and then I could take a deep breath before attempting to put some things in order. But the good new is, we have heavy rain just about the whole day, the bad news was and still is, heavy thunder boomers which scare my sweet little Junie half to death. Even with medication from the vet, she still cowers everywhere. So I spent most of the day with her beside me and pillows all around her and a make shift tent to cover but yet have her touching my hip. I'm not a big TV person, and I had my stack of quilting magazines (I can read them over and over and still continue to find new things) but the light on bothers her as well during a storm. So I literally sat on the sofa with her on one side and my other
bichon on the other. I did get approximately one side done. So with the forecast for the next several days. the position on the sofa may be a semi perm.. one

Uh oh, DH threw a monkey wrench in the works x two.
#1 - helped him clean the garage after doing the roofing and all the shingle stuff fell through the lousy roof boards they used due to too much spacing between boards. What a job. That stuff was everywhere.
I did get three loads of laundry done.
#2 - DH has an eye infection in right eye and if not better will drive him the hour and a half to the VA tom. I saw it starting on Sunday afternoon. Don't know what caused it, but, I will get all things done this week, I think providing he doesn't do something else I am not aware of.

I got done #1 and 5. Moved going to Wyoming County to this morning, have more time in case I run into search troubles.
Did go to meeting, out too late to hit dairy store. Will go today.
Appliance guy scheduled.
Today is get files ready for closings this week. Everyone thinks you are supposed to close on Friday. :)
Tonight I want to move everything off the porch and hose it down. I don't like cobwebs. Then to play in my stash- need to do some blocks for our reunion quilt. Only have a month to complete it.
Off to a busy day. Enjoy all!

Yesterday I
* paid bills.
* canned 10 quarts of dill pickles
* sewed a few crumb blocks
Darn - those NON-quilting things keep interferring with my quilting time.
Didn't iron a piece of fabric :( Getting off computer NOW for 30 minutes to iron.
