Mid Week! New Things!

It's mid week after Spring Break...it's been a killer week as far as getting back into the routine of things and getting up early to go back to work, not to relax, drink coffee and read emails at my leisure!  The week has been good...started watching what I eat, as in healthier things.  Today, I start exercising!  Yep, you heard it right, starting Zumba tonight, let's hope it doesn't kill me...we will see...need to get this body moving again...years ago I used to walk 2-3 miles a day...I was younger and had more energy then too!

And, the big 55 is coming up in a few days....my body is feeling 55 as of late also....I'll keep ya posted on progress!

Spring Break has begun!

Well, two days of Spring Break 2013 has been completed...with a few things knocked off of the To Do list!  James has painted the upstairs bath, the other guest room.  I've gotten some flowers planted.  We've already spent quaulity time with Home Depot and Lowe's!

The quilt that you are looking at in the picture is called "Rectangles and Triangles", pattern by Eleanor Burns.  This quilt was made especially for my new baby grandaughter, Cadence Elizabeth, born on March 6th, weighing in at 8lbs., 13 oz.  Here is a precious picture of her....


Isn't she just beautiful....she is the fourth child of my youngest son, Chase, that lives in Colorado....it's gonna be a little while before I actually get to see her in person.

At any rate, I am up early this morning, couldn't sleep, why is that, when you don't have to get up, you always do...now mind you, I'm not saying that I might go back to bed!  lol

James has a Chiropractic appt. this morning, and I really need to run over to Walmart...it's gonna be another busy day.  James' lovely sister Terry is flying in from California today, not quite sure what time...standby on Spring Break could be tricky!

Lots to do today....what shall I remove off of my long list...cleaning up the house a little more would probably be good...a little activity in the sewing room would be better!  Might run over to Hobby Lobby, in need of some batting, have another little quilt top I need to put on Ms. Fondue (for those of you that don't know who she is, she is my quilting system).

Then there are the blocks that I am behind for the Flow Zone BOM...gotta get those finished.... sooooo......we are doing things around here for the next couple of days, then Wednesday heading out to the country to see Momma...and to load up a bedroom suite....and would really love to bring my patio table and chairs into town...we may end up looking like the Beverly Hillbillies on the way back, we'll see....

Time to do a few more things....ya'll have an awesome day!
