I'm in for September. I spent the afternoon helping my daughter make a receiving blanket and burp cloths. She is 32 and has decided it is time to start sewing. Yea!

I'm in again. This keeps me motivated. It has been a crazy time around here since May. I think things are calming down now. I started back to work today. Just an in service day today, kids on Tuesday. As a lot of you guys know I had some issues last year. I am in a new classroom this year. WOO HOO! SOunds like things will be much better. Things got so bad last year I was grinding my teeth in my sleep and had to start wearing a mouth guard. I finally went to the principal when I bit thru it one night. The person who is my replacement in that position has already asked me how I could stand it. She told the principal she would scrub toilets to get out. Very hot in the school today. One teacher had a thermometer and her classroom was 103 at 2:00 this afternoon. That is without students. Hopefully cooling down this weekend.
Hopefully everyones health will be better this month.
Wednesday I am going to try to go to a 6:00AM spinning class. Hope I can get out of bed.

I'm in again. You already have my FQ for this time around. Hopefully, I can do better this time.

Beachbound

I guess since I already mailed my FQ that I am in again maybe this month I'll do better.

I gained 3 lbs last month. August was a tough month for me in a lot of ways. Hopefully, September will be better.

We were supposed to go to a picnic yesterday. I didn't really want to go but was going to because my DH wanted to go. I made a raspberry cake to take. While it was in the oven my DH decided he didn't want to go I was annoyed with him. So .... I made my own fun day. I had signed up for a Craftsty class for FMQ a while ago when it was on sale. I spent pretty much all day up in my sewing room doing the class. I made it thru lesson 7 of the class. I followed along and practiced on my scrap sandwich. Then when I was doing ok with it I quilted a doll quilt I am making for charity. I have 12 doll quilts pieced that I need to quilt and bind by Sept 12th. I quilted 4 of them. I plan on doing a few more today as practice before I move on the the next lesson.
