Good morning. Glad to see you both.

It's taken 1 1/2 hours and a visit with the Geek Squad to get here, but  I'm here and the panic has ended.  Not that I have a lot to say.

Our goal this week is to get the studio ready for a Divas meeting on Wednesday afternoon.  This will have to be done by supper tomorrow, as David has a re-assessment booked for Day Hospital, on Wednesday morning.  Taking the kitchen chairs downstairs might have to wait until noonish on Wednesday.

This means no meeting in Lorette, and I discover that this makes me a little regretful.  I'm amazed that I find myself preferring Lorette over the Divas, but maybe not as surprised as one would think.

A bit of conversation around here about me going back to the "20/20" diet.  It would make the most difference to David, as we would have to go back to two separate  meals.  But, if I can work things out so that we eat at the table at the same time, maybe a compromise can be made.

Otherwise we sit and read.  David will work a bit outside, and I'll work a bit in the studio.  I've found that my ability and interest in working a bit harder and longer has increased with the absence of caffeine in my diet.  Maybe I've found the solution to the issue of lack of interest and energy that has plagued m over the past couple of years.

So life goes on.  The plan to not worry about anything more than a week away, appears to be working.

p.s.  I tried to sign in again and ran into the same problem.  Again going to the Geek Squad. and ended up with a different agent--of course.  But we did figure out what the problem might be.  A solution adds a step to my signing in but I think it's manageable.

I had wanted to comment on Beth's post about the Box Bag on The Quilt Show.  I had it in my calendar and still managed to miss it.  I'm hoping it was recorded so I can still watch it.  But, you're right about Cindy Needham.  The most recent appearance on TQS was when she talked about "The Little Girls".  That show was well worth watching and still accessible.  The original shows that changed my life so very much were on a site that's no longer accessible.  I had re-watched the two classes several times, and would certainly do it again, if I could.

The energy-sucking garage sale panic is over.

  We both made it through the day without faltering, very much looking forward to a good nap once things were over.  But then were so high couldn't sleep.  Both Loren and Amber were there to help us, with Amber stopping at Tim's for breakfast on her way.   I was up and immediately dressed at 7:00 (Omg!  It even hurts to be able to say that)  Then off in the car to set up 5 signs.  Of course, each stop one has to find a place to park, get out of the car, place the sign, and reverse the process.  That finished, I parked in the mall across the way, pulled my walker out of the car, and trudged off home.  I was so glad to have the walker during the day, mainly because the float was hidden in the small zipper compartment in the walker and I sat on it most of the day.  We moved the patio table and umbrella to the front yard.  Amber and I spent most of the day there, while Loren and Dave spent their time in the garage, until later in t...

Baking

  Yesterday I forgot to mention that I've become concerned about how much money we've been spending on muffins.  So I decided to try baking them on my own.  We got rid of all my baking pans at the garage sale so had to make a trip to Dollarama for a new one.  It's silicone and soft and wiggly, but also dishwasher safe.  I've made some Blueberry muffins that didn't rise very well.  Turned out the baking powder was over a year past it's "best before" date.  Went out and bought more. I've found recipes on-line for Banana Chocolate Chip, Chocolate, and another Blueberry that uses frozen berries rather than thawed--great--as all of mine are Frozen.  I'm also going to look for a recipe for Bran, but not today.

Yes. It is Sunday again

  Time keeps passing. Faster and faster every day. We had freezing rain last night and this morning but it seems to have stopped for now, but that damp chill goes right through me!  Lucky and Ally are both sleeping so is almost like having time to myself. I did walk Lucky this morning but we stayed off the road. We went around the trail cause it wasn’t icy. Less dangerous for both of us. I snuggled down this weekend but I will have to venture out tomorrow.  Hopefully the roads will be clear. They don’t look bad right now so it is promising. I get my flu shot on Wednesday and Ally has a vet appointment on Friday. And I’m going to call for a lawyer appointment tomorrow.  Chloe is going to have her “old people” birthday party on the 18th. Kik and I will go together. And I told Kik I would go to Winnipeg with her on the 14th. I hate the time change. I was awake very early this morning, even though Lucky stayed sleeping until 6:30!  It’s just going to be an extra lon...
