No, what do they say? So, went home last night, tilled the flower bed, planted four rose bushes, dug hole for apple tree, weeded, tended garden just a little to check how much I needed to pick for pickles, mowed the lawn, sprayed for bugs and calcium for plants, finished embroidery label for nephews quilt and crashed. Got up this am, watered, picked cukes and zucchini, found a cantelope a good size, saw the watermelon setting on, no ripe tomatoes though, did two pincushions, got dressed, stopped at store for mailboxes for work, picked up coffee creamer for office and made it to work on time. Now to focus on work, get my stuff done, so I can cut out appliques and do hand embroider work. Got to love the Lord when he helps you get it all done. While canning the dill pickles, will do a design on embroidery machine. Is that work Jaba?

Yep, makes me tired just going through your day. Use to but getting a little more lax at 66 yrs., think maybe the MS and thyroid cancer has something to do with that. I did pick the garden, weed the asparagas, washed 3 loads( and I really did get it put away) sewed boom 7 quilt in rows, watched volleyball while eating dinner, had a kahlua on the rocks and went to bed. Got up this morning and I'm still tired.....need to recoup today, but I will think of you working today, dear friend. I really do envy your energy, mines just not what it use to be. You really do need to make that trip next year and help me get a groove on, I need some of that inspiration.

Oh I just love you jaba, you are my kind of gal. Be sure you have two bottles of that Kahlua on hand so we can laugh at each other while trying to sew a straight line. yep, sounds like a good time. I will put it in my schedule. I will set aside money from each paycheck to be sure I have enough for gas there and back. Hmmm, if it is that much fun, who wants to worry about the back part, just use it at the quilt shop there and show and forget to come home.

Sounds perfect, I told you I have a very large house and you can have 1 wing, no need to leave and stingy me, if you're here with ALL of that energy, I'll have more time to sew and you can do the work stuff 'cause you'll get it done way faster than me.
PS: I always have kahlua, it's a staple at my house

actually, I have been trying to go with my DH when he has company meetings in Reno so I can stop and see you but work won't let me off work. Hopefully I will have a better idea of DHs next meeting there so I can catch a ride with him and visit you. Will let you know.
