Pink Phlox. Very Pink.
So. We had snow flurries yesterday and then son did the math......to shovel now or later or not at all. He went with now and it was a very good choice. I think he also went out a second time.....so that if we had overnight rain- there wouldn't be a snow ice mess to clean up. Sidewalk is clean and dry this morning.
He is getting his weather off the Apple site (on his iPhone)....they have been exceptionally "on target". I am wondering if our next door neighbor is the one doing the weather for Apple. He does weather for someone. It's his job. I imagine him in the room over the garage....lots of screens..... weather images
I was typing something but always wonder if I already told you........so I deleted it. UPS and the wrong house etc....
So......Pizza today minus the Football. Son filled the front porch bird feeders. Very messy eaters. Have not seen the Cardinal in many weeks now. I left him some fruit but...no taker. I think a few squirrels gave the fruit a look see and the sole chipmunk comes for dropped sunflower seeds.....I am imagining a huge amount of Sunflowers sprouting along the base of the porch in the Summer. Hopefully.
I baked two of my sweet potatoes yesterday and had them with butter and melted cheese while watching William Shatner talk about Big Foot etc. On Stranger than Truth or some such title. Luckily Son was occupied and didn't catch me watching. But now he is reading this.....oops.
Remember me saying I didn't like Bookstore book.....got to page 66 and was calling it quits? I finished it and it was a damned fine book.....The Book Haters' Book Club... title has nothing to do with the book's content. Author is Gretchen Anthony. Even a bit of romance there....wasn't expecting that.
I have a Tessa Bailey book for today...Unfortunately Yours. They are "more" than a bit spicy. And that's what I want for today. Sam if you are reading this- this is an author for you to look for....... Just short of raunchy with a nice touch of sweetness. I enjoyed Chase Me, Fix Her Up and Wreck the Halls.
I have three more on the wait list.
I found some needle turn appliqué in the Office....I carried it out here to the COUCH. I might finish them. I am still MISSING the the blue on tan appliqué.....many many years of work on the blocks and the hand turned sawtooth edging....all gone walkabout. I would really like to know where that is.
The one I found is flowers of a gorgeous red and pink combo on cream on cream cotton. I have the paper designs and the thread etc. Two started and two outlined in pencil. I have the hand drawn patterns in with the other stuff and unused fabrics. Usually taped the pattern to a kitchen window and then taped the fabric over the paper and traced with pencil.... easy enough to do that way - no light box.
I found the work just before going to bed- I was in the office looking for something else......and then before falling asleep I was thinking about the project I found and the one that is lost.....but no overnight suggestions of where the tan and blue one is located. Now that all my stuff has been boxed and moved- not by me--it will take me quite awhile to find anything...so I was happy to find at least one project. And I can actually finish it. If my son or daughter remembers where the batting is located.
