Ho-Hum

Truth is I am quilting, but I can't really post pictures because it is a surprise quilt for a friend. I don't think she reads my blog, but the site is posted on my facebook page so there is a remote possibility. Therefore, we will keep it a secret a little longer. I can tell you that I have begun the borders (almost finished with one side) so I start jumping ahead of myself to get going on another project! If only I could muster the energy to complete some of the unfinished ones....but that goes hand in hand with being a quilter, I think. My next project will be Libby's birthday quilt.....which in no way will be completed for her birthday. But she doesn't have her big girl bed yet so I have a little time.... I picked out this quilt for Libby a long time ago and ordered the fabric. It has pink and purple fairy ballerinas in it and fairly simple, but plenty for her to look at. I'm going to go dig out the fabric...hopefully I remembered to put the magazine the pattern is in with it! I think I did, but I know that doesn't mean much to my feeble brain these days. I have found my Ipod.....now my camera is on the missing list. This is really maddening because it was just on the lost list a few weeks back! I found it in an unlikely place, of course. I have checked the previously unlikely places I looked for the Ipod, the cords, etc.....but of course it isn't there. The only place I can think of to look is under the seats in my car. I will try that option when I go down to put my laundry in the dryer. Maybe I need to get a tote bag of some sort...kinda Sophia-esque in nature (as in Golden Girls) and carry everything I keep losing in it. It would have to be a bag on wheels because I am loosing too much to carry on my arm or shoulder!! Ugh. I don't think I have a dementia problem...YET....but just a creature of rushing and not paying attention where I put things. I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend.....it's calling for rain here, so not much outdoor activity being planned.

I leave you with some photos from the top of the Dolly Sods Wilderness area from our car ride last weekend. We love this area...in spring and in fall. The wild mountain laurel was in bloom, as was the wild pink honeysuckle putting it's glorious fragrance in the air. Also an abundance of wild bleeding hearts. Just beautiful! Click to enlarge.....
