Bit is so cute! Glad to hear your feeling better.

His name is Bit, for short we started calling him "Little bit" b/c we really thought his people would be looking for him. Several months ago we found him in the front yard covered in fleas, w/ an infected eye and shivering and hungry. Talked w/ the local vets, placed ads, repeatedly called the local paper, no body claimed him, so guess he is here to stay. (Gary calls him "the bit of little")

I have an ear infection, first one since I was a child, I think it is finally getting better. I can sit on the sofa w/o wishing I had a seat belt today.

So glad everyone is getting their packages. How 'squishy' are they, packed tightly like that! Mine was hard as a rock.

Hope you get some hopeful news from the ortho dr., JoanLiz.

I've been working on my blocks for my local swap, and am almost done with them. Only three to go. I want to get them finished and put up so I won't get anything mixed up with the two Booms. Then I'll start on the March group.

Happy block building!

That's great Terriam because after Road to California I dreamed about what I would do with your block. You're fabric will be the first I cut into. I'm very excited about the block.
