A bit of this and that...

First, new blocks I don't think I have posted on here...

and here...

and here...

I am just using random fabrics...some scraps, some not.

2.  I record Live From Dennison Lodge every week...they feature a new to me music artist every week.  Last night I started to listen to Ray Bonneville after Roger had done gone to bed...I listened to half a dozen notes and stopped because I knew Roger would like him...so tonight we listened...I was right Roger did really like him and I found a new song that I just love called Lone Freighter's Wail.

I have looked to try to find the lyrics...but no luck.  But oh, my, I do love this song.  The words are just so lonesome if you listen to them.  The music even has a lonesome quality to it.

3.  How about a something funny from Steve Harvey:


4.  as well as some funny family feud from back in the day:

I really debated on using this since the quality of the video is so bad, but have laughed myself silly with them.

5.  It has  been a good day...oldest daughter came, and we went to Arthur, Illinois.  She added to her fabric collection and I brought home 3 or 4 more.  I have done begun cutting them.

Thankful Thursday

I am thankful that I got my daughter's quilt finished last week.  She chose the fabrics, chose the pattern, together we made the top, and I pin-basted and quilted it. We made the top in May, and I started the pin-basting and quilting some time after she left.

Then Roger had his stroke August 2 and I did not get to quilt any on it for at least 3 months...and then only a line or two here and there.  And that was machine quilting.

I am thankful that I took Roger to the strip pits yesterday and let him try driving...he did okay there.  Not ready for a busy city by any means...

And I am so very thankful that my older daughter now lives about 3½ hours away.

My first time for Share Your World....

I have been meaning to join Cee's Share Your World for quite some time.  She supplies the questions and we supply the answers.  So here goes.

Do you sleep with your sheets tucked in or out?
I have the ends tucked in but no where else.  Unless I am really cold, I hardly have any covers on me, or maybe just the sheet.


Have you stolen a street sign before?
No, and don't think I know anyone that has.


Do you cut out coupons but then never use them?
Sometimes, but mainly because I cannot find that particular item...or sometimes I forget that I have the coupon.


Do you have freckles?
Yes, and lots of them.




Optional Bonus question:  What are you grateful for from last week, and what are you looking forward to in the week coming up?
I was so grateful that Roger and I were able to get some things done in our yard.  Things that had been praying on my mind.  And it made him feel so good to actually be able to accomplish something.  Also, he is not down to going to speech therapy only twice a month.  I am looking forward to more sunshine this week!
