She might have got a laugh out of it Crissy..lol..one of these days you'll make that statement!

Audrey, you are only as old as you think you are...think young/think young...how's your daughter making out..think I asked on another thread but didn't see your response..

Thunder, he sounds wonderful, everyone needs a Mr. Mom...Roger lived in pain every day as well..they wanted to do a lot of fusing and he'd not hear of it..they told him eventually the pain would get too much and he'd be bedridden..think that's what really brought on his demise..all the time it was cancer he never said a word because he thought it was his back..I'd say go to the Dr. and he'd say, it's just the way it is, no back fusing for me...

What a day weatherwise....just getting ready to leave and it's almost as though an outdoor heater came on..slushy/slushy even the sun started to shine..didn't look back towards the office though would have hated Paul to say come back...

Hit the wool shop, Janome dealer ,don't know what I do with my bobbins-think I throw them out so bought a box of them..

Got the bright idea that if I stopped into the quilt shop in Craighurst where I purchased the carryall bag pattern that they might have the adhesive type fleece..they did, little thinner than Fabriclands..Fabricland sells theirs for $15.99 a meter (39 inches) and the thinner in Craighurst was $10.98 and you need 1 3/4 meter..imagine..so not a cheap project..bought enough so I can do 2 bags and Diane 1..Darlene's birthday is in 3 weeks so I'll make her one...

then I got a craving..we french call it...Chicken and Slidders (in french Poules et Glissants) it's where you cook your chicken in broth then take 1 cup of the broth and chill, add flour, salt and pepper and roll out thin..cut into squares and while your broth is boiling drop a few in at a time..yummy, yummy..almost ready for me to eat..imagine, me cooking..you can tell it was a craving..

So far I've gotten the bench painted maroon/red, can't sand and finish till tomorrow when dry, trying to decide if I'll start the proto-type bag, checked the one in Craighurst and saw a few easier ways of doing it than the pattern..don't want to lead Diane astray when we each work on one so thought I'd make one and try my ideas before she comes on Sunday or play with the afghan squares I've got done this week..toss up..

Guess knowing how easily tired I get toward evening, I'm best to stick with the crochet (each sqare needs 1 row of black) so I could sit and do that..come early morning start the bag..what do you think??? sounds like a plan doesn't it?

Any exciting plans for any of you tonight? Lordy my life is boring, should be out dancing that's what I should be doing...
