Actually it has been a busy afternoon and evening. I put together four of my snowmen bead
ornaments. I also put together 12 bead
icicles. I have everything ready to finish the other 12 bead icicles plus 20
others which are a different design.
In between I did a load of laundry (towels), dishes, took
out the trash and all that kind of important stuff. Also made a few phone calls, one of which was
Anne.
Today so far I have folded the load of towels I washed and
dried yesterday. I finished the beaded
snowmen. I had to put the ribbon around
their necks. I also finished the other
12 beaded icicles. They are red white
and blue and turned out really nice. I got a box of items ready for the church
yard sale. Kevin is off work today and
came to visit for a few minutes. Talked
to Tom and Bertus for a few minutes.
Tonight I went to church.
Actually, it was a pizza party for the Prime Timers. It was okay.
It was nice seeing everyone. I
ate before I went so I didn’t have any pizza.
After eating we had a meeting about the yard sale. The date has been changed to October. It was so hot last year in September that
everyone was miserable. We are hoping
this year will be a little cooler. After
the meeting we played a game called Newspaper Scavenger Hunt. Linda (the Prime Timers President) always
seems to come up with new games. Anyway it
was a lot of fun. There were four tables
of people, so that is how we were grouped.
Our table won! Our prize was a
Reese peanut butter cup.
After arriving home I
watched the end of the NASCAR Xfinity race.
The Miss Penny and I called it a night and went to bed. This morning, however, Miss Penny started at
3:00 a.m., and was determined I would also get up to play. So, being me I run her out of my bedroom and
shut the door. I did get a little more
sleep, but I am really tired today.
This afternoon we had
a really bad storm. Of course, I slept
through most of it. Miss Penny usually doesn’t pay any attention to the storms,
but she sure didn’t like this one. She
snuggled up to me and didn’t move until it was over. I found out later that Kevin and Ryan had
done some concrete work before the rain came.
Hope the rain didn’t ruin it.
Won’t know until tomorrow.
Kevin and Renea stopped over early in the evening. That’s when I found out about the concrete
work. Anyway, they stopped to check on
me. I was doing better once I had my
nap, but still not a hundred percent.
Renea asked me if I would make her a set of “fall” coasters and a napkin
holder out of the plastic canvas. I said
I would. I know I have a few patterns,
but will check for more. I also plan to
make a napkin holder for me.
While the NASCAR race was on this evening I made my other
set of Christmas ornament icicles. They
turned out really nice. Not sure which
ones I like the best. I will hang them
all on my tree.
I sure do have a lot of projects on my list.
This morning could have been a serious incident if I hadn’t
been home. We all know that cats like to
climb and be “above” us all. Well, about
the time I got out of the shower, I heard this strange clunk. I finished drying off and came out of the
bathroom to see what had happened. Well,
I have a very tall cabinet next to my washer.
It almost reaches the ceiling.
And, lo and behold, there is Miss Penny on top of the cabinet with no
idea how to get down. She would not jump
to me or to the washer. I assume she
jumped from the washer to the top of the cabinet. Now she is scared. So, I got out my two step ladder and got her
down. She was shaking, and when I put
her on the floor she went and hid. That’s
my girl J
This afternoon I visited with Kevin, Renea, and
Stephanie. Ryan arrived in time for
supper. Kevin grilled steaks and boiled shrimp.
Renea fixed baked sweet potatoes, salad, muffins, apple pie and lemon
bars. It was awesome.
I’m done for the evening!
