Random thoughts......

I had a very wonderful birthday. My sister and BIL came up and spent the weekend. My brother and SIL came up and spent the day Saturday, and all the kids and grandkids came on Saturday (except our Nancy who was busy being a pharmacist!!) We had a Heavenly Ham dinner with all the fixings and everyone seemed to enjoy the chow. Debbie brought a birthday cake because Aubree & Libby seemed to think we needed "cake, candles & singing" and "hats". So everyone sang "Happy Birthday, dear MeMe" (which was a little strange, to hear your siblings call you MeMe) but it was a great day.

Rick and I are going to Bristol for the Nascar races this weekend. Can't wait! Vrooooooom!
We will stay in Wytheville, VA and travel down to Bristol for the fun. We went to 4 races last year and hope to be able to go to a bunch this year as well. We'll see.

I have started cutting out the fabric for a new quilt. What, you say!!!! Aren't you supposed to be finishing UFO's, you say!!!!! Okay. I am weak. I want to have some handwork to take on the road this summer so that is my excuse and I'm sticking to it. One of the gals on another blogsite I am on showed this pattern from the 30's (this is not my block). It's called Leatha's Electric Fan. I just fell in love with it. So......I am busy cutting. It will have a blue circle in the center.

I am enjoying the onset of Spring. I have enjoyed going to sleep to the sound of the peeps (we sleep with the window open) and waking up to the sound of the birds. It gives a better start to the day, somehow. It is rainy today, but Rick told me we will have sunshine for the next few days. Ahhhhhhh.

Woke up to a UTI this morning. Ugh. Waiting for the dr. to phone to get a Rx. I brought this one on myself.....didn't drink enough water and too much Coke the last week.

OK......enough boring stuff for now. Back to cutting and marking.

Blessings,
Becky
