Hubby fixed me blueberry pancakes with banana slices, eggs, and bacon. As soon as he finishes in the kitchen, we are going to attack our library. We have a room to remodel in the next week or so and need to make some serious progress today and Monday. I am planning on putting the binding on the reunion log cabin blocks later today. Then out to dinner!
Raptureready, hugs and wishes for a better today.

Well, I know it is still early but nothing has happened to make it a bad day for me! DH left early to do some fencing on the ranch and DD has been out of town & will return this afternoon. So after spending a little time with you, I get to quilt the rest of the morning and then get ready for a wedding this afternoon. All in all, a good day!

Thank you all. Daddy got killed 5 months to the day after momma died of a heart attack. After she died his laughter never reached his eyes again so I know that now they're together and they're happy. Daddy was 84 and got killed when the car he was fixing fell on him. At 84 he still had his mind, health, his own hair and teeth, had a build that young men would envy, and was amazingly unwrinkled and handsome. I'm saying that because he was my dad but because it was true. The only place that he looked his age was between his thumb and forefinger--where the skin really sags when you get some major age going on. Daddy still drove, cleaned his own house, did his own laundry, his own cooking, etc., and he went out the way he wanted to---outside working. So all in all he had a good life, a good death. I just get depressed around both of their death days because we were close and I miss them so much.
GREAT NEWS: I'm feeling much better. Several things have happened to boost my spirits already today. I've been wanting a rectangular flat wooden tv snack tray to make a portable ironing board for quilting classes. So today I forced my self to get dressed and get out to some garage sales---4 in fact. I didn't find the table but what I did find was a beautiful oak hand quilting frame--bed quilt size for only $5.00!!! I have my mom's but my nephew's wife has been wanting one. I bought it and gifted it to her. (giving always brightens my mood). I also ran into some friends that are going a little farther to some townwide sales. She's going to look for the table for me.
Then when I checked my mail, the book I bought from Judy G. had come in! All these blessing right in a row!!!!
I'm still a little depressed but it's getting a lot lighter around the edges. Thanks for being so nice.
