Saturday
I was back in the Sewing Shack. I worked
on my living room curtains. I hemmed the
sides of the panels. I really like the
print, but I am disappointed in the material.
It does not flow through the machine easily and keeps “gathering” which
is a pain. I am even using my walking
foot which allows thicker pieces to go through.
Oh well, I will get them finished and hung. Just taking longer than
expected.
After
lunch I stayed at the house and continued working on my box of scraps. Now I am sorting them according to size so I
can decide what to keep and how to cut them in order to use them.
Saturday
evening is also Mass at St. Patrick’s.
Then I stopped at Walgreen’s and picked up my prescriptions. Next was Zaxby’s for supper. I picked it up and took it home to eat. Watched a little television and headed off to
bed.
Sunday
was laundry day, watching NASCAR, and working on box of scraps. Yes, I am making progress. Also went to Kevin and Renea’s for steak
dinner. It sure was good.
Monday
I drove to Tigertown and got my hair cut.
The lady did a good job. I also
went to Kroger. I rained off and on all
day, so I got a little wet. In the afternoon
I went to the Sewing Shack and embroidered three bait towels for Kevin. He will be delivering three fishing poles
this weekend. Renea is going to visit
her Aunt Pat for the weekend. That was
all I did at the Shack because I got there late. Watched a little television in the
evening. I had taped Worst Cooks. There is now one more show. I am cheering for Leo. This show has been the funniest I have
seen. Alton Brown makes me laugh
tears.
Today,
Tuesday, is the anniversary of the deadly tornado that hit Beauregard. And, wouldn’t you know, we have rain,
thunder, lightning and a tornado watch.
I can’t imagine how the survivors of that tornado much feel today. I am even nervous. Prayers for everyone.
We
were very fortunate yesterday. No tornadoes. We did have an inch and a half of rain. Luckily when I went to Bible study last night
the rain had stopped. Made it there and back
safely. We had a bigger crowd than
usual.
Today,
however, we are having very heavy rain.
This morning it was not only heavy rain, but thunder and lightning. Now it is just very heavy rain. They are predicting three to five inches of
rain over today and tomorrow. We are
already over a foot of rain above normal for this time of year. I have a small lake in my front yard along
with a creek which has started to overflow.
What a mess. This whole area is
under a flood watch – probably a warning by now. At the rate the rain is coming down I will
probably get my scraps finished. I sure
won’t be going down to the Sewing Shack today or tomorrow.
Just
a quick note to say I finished sorting my scraps. Next it will be organizing my fabric in the
Sewing Shack.

Instead of sorting scraps, maybe you should be building an ark!! I hate when we get a lot of rain like that. Our backyard has been very wet most of the winter and even now is very wet around my bird feeders. I hate filling up the feeders because my big ole feet just make the muddy areas worse. We have sun today, but I think we're getting more rain the next few days. Haven't been out walking either because I know the trail will be muddy and...I'm lazy.
Caught up on your blog once again. We are back in Cincy and I am back in Cincy mode. We got back on Monday, March 2. On Sunday, we had gone through Nashville. On Tuesday, they got hit with the tornados. How quickly things happen. We just hope and pray we are ready when disaster hits. God is still in charge. Hope you are over your vertigo and feeling better. Staying busy is good therapy. I just have to get myself motivated! Which takes time for me. Take care. Keep up the blog. Happy St. Patrick Day and Happy Spring!
Love, Arlene and Bob Doerger
