Working on a quilt of horses and doing nothing.....my fibro has been acting up and not much I can do when it hits.......
Lots to do this weekend craft fairs , reopening of a quilt shope.....too many to go to all at once.....
Really charged about the election now that McCain and Palin are running......It is time to do away with big government , they need to answer to the people.......We know what is right for us not the government.......

Looks as if Fall is here in August.
Boy I love this weather.....I can't believe it......
We are in the middle of renewals right now at work and am going crazy.....I license educated people or I thought they were. And they can't follow simple instructions. I feel as if I am babysitting these people and leading them by the hand. I Guess I'll never get it.....what happen to common sense. Some times I am so glad I didn't go to college, cause I could be here to answer all these educated peoples questions....haha...sorry college grads, am sure not all people quailify in this....but this group of people really do....ahah....
I am so itchy to go some where and visit people that like to talk.....I live with a person that doesn't talk or say any thing. I swear I'll go crazy at times......I had to use all my leave time with the knee operation. So I have to wait till I build up more again.....then am off to the east coast to see my kiddies.....We talk every day on the phone, but it isn't the same....
I am working on this trellis quilt with horseracers in the squares.....kinda neat....I'll have to show ya when I get done......Brother in law loves horse racing and he is getting married and I thought this would be neat for some reason.....will see.
Have a save Labor Day....I'll be at home.......hahah

Sauna in mid America
Well the last two days have been the worse so far this summer. When one opens the door it is like walking into a sauna and it takes your breath away. I start sweating like a pig and I look for the nearest mud puddle to dive into....it just drenches you.....
So I spent my time in the house.....I did finish two baby quilts for my neices twins that are on the way....boys at that. I had girls and they were so easy , but boys, I bet she doesn't have any more....haha....I just pray they are all fine and healthy....
Right now am reading a novel about old england and the things that went on in that day and age. Some times I think we are tamer than how and what they lived by. But such good reads. They are Wideacre, The favored Child and the final one Meridon by Philippa Gregory. She wrote the other Boylen Girl. She is a great writer and the book is so much better than the movie....I wish it had followed the book more. They left characters out of the movie..... If ya love long novels these are for you......
Am back to work full time now and loving it.....I know am sick.....
Have a great week!!!

Back to the ole routine
Well, my daughter from out east and son are back home now. After three weeks of fun and shopping and a messy house. Every thing has gone back to normal.....no noise and quiet.....
The 3 year old is so full of life and bossy.....13 year old into music and computer. We had so much fun playing and laughing. I think the dog has gone into morning, now he has to settle for the old folks again.......
The knee is doing great and coming along. Just not fast enough for me at times.
Donya helped me clean out some of the junk from my basement and now may be I can get back to sewing and hooking.....I've got so many ideas coming to me and want to do them. Purses, quilts and rugs.
I hope I can learn how to put pics on the blog and such....It will take me forever......

Hot summer
Am doing much better but some swelling......
I just got back from my 43rd class reunion and what fun and to connect with old friends and made new. It felt so great to see faces one had grown up with....may be not the same but in the eyes you could still see the glow. But not enough time to talk to every one. So in 2 years we are going to do it again.....
I am going through my stashes and wool and what a major job. I really want to stick to hooking and quilting and sewing. I haven't time for any thing else.
I've been reading historical novels and what fun.....there was alot more going on in the old days then we ever thought. Things are some what tamer now adays.....At least we don't cut off their heads......Ha ha....
My Daughter Donya and the two girls are here for two weeks and what fun it is. I miss them so much being on the east coast and am stuck in the middle of America.......She is helping me the best she can...... Son was here for a week and I truly miss him alot....may be one of these days I'll get back on the east coast, by then I'll be too old and they'll put me in a home.....haha...
Lets hope fall comes soon. the heat is killing me........
