Yes, I've Been Procrastinating.

Wow, it's been almost a month since my last post. It's not that I don't have anything to post just that I've been lax about it. There you have it, I've let everything else distract me. Okay, I've just been lazy. Now that I've confessed let's get back to my post.

Whew! That nasty Noreaster just missed us. No snow here, Not one flake! I'm thankful and I do sympathize with those affected. I read there was 31 inches in one locality. My friend in Virginia told me yesterday that they got six inches but that it was already melting. the weather here will be in the fifties this week. Perfect for putting the garden to bed for the winter.

I went to a local orchard to pick apples about three weeks ago. The apples were awesome this year. On the way home I made sure take pictures of the fall colors.





In my next post I will be sharing lots of photos of my visit to a local quilt show.

No, I Have't Fallen Off The Face OF The Earth!

Here it is 10 minutes after midnight and I'm still awake because I'm unhappy with this new laptop. I can't go more than ten feet from the WiFi router or I lose my internet connection. Makes it a bit hard to work in the studio. No, it's not the router. Our other laptop works fine with it.( I can even go outside with the old one...no problem.) It's under warranty but if we can't figure this out, then back to the manufacturer. I really don't want to do that because I'll have to delete everything I've downloaded. I'm just glad I didn't add all my programs to it before we found there was a problem. Sigh :(  Sorry, I just had to vent.





You deserve to see something besides my complaining. This is a wall hanging I made a while back and just recently quilted it. I had a lot of blue in my livingroom for 23 years before we moved where we live now. Now my decorating colors are red,sage, and brown. Blue doesn't fit in anymore and after 23 years of it, I've really had enough. So, what to do with it? Hmmmm....

I was just looking for some more clip art from my files on this computer to add to this post and just numbers show up on the window, not thumbnails. This is Windows 7...auuuugh! Whatever happened to XP? Frown :( Forget it. I'm logging off and going to bed. Night all!

A Quick Check In

Our lifestyle has changed since my husband of nearly 50 years had a serious stroke in May 20019. No more running out for groceries when I wa...
