Daily Notes- November 1

                                                

Good Morning.  This is the Halloween Quilt I made many years ago for the town library.  It hung on the wall behind the circulation desk for the month of October for many happy years (I loved that job) and has been in the closet up in the Magic Attic for years and years now.  I had a bit of a problem inserting the picture here.  My computer is experiencing some difficulties.  So...there is a good chance my Daily Notes will stop quite abruptly.  There is no one to fix any problems now.  I will try a reboot.

I keep getting strange and never seen before messages.  As much as my son and husband believe they have severed ties between this computer (the main one) and my husband's new iPad- I fear they are still entangled in some ways.  It is with great sadness that I type this- knowing it may go nowhere.

My Life- as I knew it--seems to be slowly falling apart.  Not that I don't still have friends and good days.  It's that I find myself thinking I am in Solitary Confinement.

The Twins and their parents enjoyed seeing the Halloween Quilt. And the boys were very good conversationalists with me, G and with Riley who seems to have made an instant attachment to them.  They must smell wonderful to the Dog.  They were our only Tricker Treaters.  The rain and wind took a break so no one got wet.  The lawn was littered with fallen branches this morning.  So some heavy wind came thru overnight.

Hallmark delivered a new and sweet Christmas Movie last night that I enjoyed- a down in the dumps  Vermont Town experiences a revival when a down on her luck Venture Capitalist comes to stay for a month in the Town's charming bookstore.  She spends zero money but manages to change the Town anyway.  I like fantasy.

Well, the holiday is over and I need to do laundry and write my Washing Machine Pages while I keep watch that no water overflows onto the new floors for the third time.  I also have bills to pay.  I also should vacuum the floors of the entire house- dog hair is drifting into all the corners.  So- a busy day of sorts.  I still need to tackle the bobbin case.  And the sewing room floor is littered with scraps of cloth and cotton and linen clothing.  My new yardages.  Pretty soft colors of well worn clothing to add to my "components".  Dee the second of your "packing" material scraps is in the salsa jar with a tin can.  The sun is shining on it right now.  When it's dry and warm I will unwrap to see what I have.

If I can't post- I will write to each of you a email.  If I don't have an email address for you- send to jsuley@comcast.net.
