Wow has it been 3 weeks already? I am completely out of touch with time these days. It just seems to fly by. To make matters worse I am not getting anything done. The two quilt tops that need borders are still sitting on Millie waiting for their borders. I haven't even cut them out yet.
Lately my days outside of work have consisted of cooking, cleaning and laundry. Kim has been out of town during the week but is home on weekends. That means catching up on things he wants us to get done. Plus having Grandkids over so they get some time with Santapa. (which is way more important than quilting)
So in the last 3 weeks, I've canned 8 quarts of pears off our trees and 4 quarts of pickled eggs from our chickens. We've spent a Saturday with the new family members (Shauhanna, Jeff and Zack), the guys went fishing and the gals went shopping. And I have prepped and taught a jewelry making class for church. All of which have been very enjoyable but seem to interfere with my quilting and sewing.
Also I have been in the midst of an asthma flare since August 14th. I went to the Doctor on September 12th and he put me on Prednisone for 10 days. I am feeling much better but now need to try and catch up on everything I didn't get done.
This week I am on vacation and am heading to Pack Expo in Vegas. Pack Expo is like a car show for packaging equipment. So yes it is a vacation but it is also work related. Kim is going for work and I am tagging along. So this week will be devoid of quilting as well. I am taking my Swedish weaving to work on in the hotel at night.
In the meantime, I have been watching some videos and am starting to make some plans. I am going to get a handle on my stash. I am going to get a handle on the UFOS. And I am going to get a handle on my scraps. I have some great ideas. Now to just make a plan and put it in action.
What have you been up to?
