Does this bring back memories

Remember when it seemed like winter was going to last forever?   I wonder how cold it is to ride in an open buggy like this in winter.  This one was taken December 8, 2013.

We are having a beautiful day so far.  No humidity to speak of.  Specially when compared to the past few days.  We are headed to Walmart and maybe to a couple junk shops.  We want to get out while the getting out is good.

They did call about the pathology reports....both spots she removed were basal cell.  It is usually not dangerous, so just going on with life.  I do know though that soon as these are healed I am going back to have a couple more removed.  One of them I just forgot to point out to her, the other I had never noticed cause it was so close to one of the ones I had removed. 

From the past

I have posted this photo before...I like it.  A lot.

I look at it and think probably all the cooking for the family was done right there with very few other items.  Yet my kitchen is crammed full.  Some items I only use once in a blue, blue moon.  Some I have not used in years.

I have a George Foreman grill.  It makes great hamburgers, but I seldom get it out.  I got it because we had one at work and used it all the time so I thought I would use one just as much here at home.  I was wrong.  Yet I cannot bring myself to get rid of it.

I have an electric skillet.  I use it occasionally at the family picnic to keep something warm.  But not at every one.

I sit around and think of getting rid of stuff, yet I never act on it.  I even found THIS list of things to get rid of and have it saved for inspiration.

I just wondered how many feel like their life is cluttered with stuff?  Sometimes I feel owned by stuff...life would be so much simpler if I got brave and disposed of a lot of it. 

Etc

First, and before I say anything else, I want to say that the photo of Lo and her daddy in the rain was taken by Sarah.  I meant to give that credit when I posted it and got in a hurry and forgot

Now, first I will show you my current quilt top I am making...it is not going to be even a twin size.  It will be more like a couch size...

I have a good start on it...I just need to take it down to the cutting board and square up the edges.

There will be a strip of fabric that goes between the sections.  I have not chosen the fabric yet.  And I still need to put the half square triangles on each corner of the main section.

I went to the dermatologist today...she removed one mole and another spot that she said was basal cell cancer.   But that was just from her looking at it through magnification.  Will wait and see what pathology has to say before I feel sure that is all it is...not that it isn't enough.  I should have went long ago but I kept waiting for other things to calm down.  If I had known how simple it would be, I would have went long ago.
