Yikes I haven't been on FB in the last few days--busy trying to get other things done so I don't get quit so far behind.

Audrey, it is a state law in Florida but that doesn't make much difference to a lot of people. Just something else to ignore!!

I need to make a froggie quilt. Any suggestions, Thunder?
In one of the quilting magazines, there's a special feature on quilters that love their 'tats'... Awesome art!

what mag??!! I got to see that??!!!
there are quite a few frog quilt patterns out there, if you look around, I am sure you can find some....try to google it

Have you seen this one ??!! ^_^

Hmm.. is it on FB?? Think it's on yours... lolol!!
Of course, too envious to say it's beautiful!!!

I got to look for that mag. I know it's a recent one.
Kel just gave me this excellent idea. Get a kid's coloring book and expand the pictures from there to make appliquez patterns.

Tell Kel I am proud of him--he is using his head for something other than a hat rack!! Love him too. LOL

Jaye, look at the pictures here, lots of frog quilts on google image search!

And the rain keeps falling. Sad times for the people in burn areas. Mud slides running homes etc. Just started cleaning up and more floods came. These people really do need an ark. Thankful I'm not in those areas. Heavy snow in the mountains too.

I HATE WINTER>>>>>I HATE SNOW .....Just had to climb up on the roof and wipe the satelite dish off so I could get on the net,Rick has always done it but he's a sleep.I did wake him enough to ask where the stuff was to clean it off and he told me NO I WASN'T ALLOWED...........LOL,such a silly man.You would think after 14 years he'd know me better than that.Don't ever tell me I'm not allowed...ROFLMBO !!!!!!!! It wasn't too bad doing it,had to climb the ladder,carrying the broom and flashlight,got up there and swept it off,then I lost my shoe in 2 feet of snow on the roof,found the shoe,can down the ladder and here I am.........TAADAA !!!!!!!!

OH my jaye ...........LOVE the Frog quilts ~!!!!!!!!!!!!!

omgoodness Synda!! - you sound Just Like Me lol!!
I'd do a fool stunt like that too! lol

Ah well, wouldn't do it anymore, actually - I "play diva" and insist he do it!

He has to get up and go to work early so I didn't want him to get up.........

Synda? Diva? yeah right.............ask her about the time she had to fix her muffler with a tin can! ***now if she had learned to park in the parking area instead of a mound of dirt that would have been better!***

California certainly need to dedicate one whole day to a State Prayer Day!!! So much problems going on there.. one disaster after another, not to mention the fiscal...
Pegi, I am so glad you're not affected by the inclement weather. You too Cindy..

Hehehehe.. Maid M.. that conceited man got a big grin on his face when I told him what you've posted!

Good Lord Synda!! You're certainly bound and determined not to be cut off from civilization huh? Like Susan said, let him do it!! If you were to lose your balance.... thank God you're sure footed!

Jack of all trades our Synda, there, eh Julie??

Thank you for the suggestions there LK and Synda.
A good sistah has gifted me with my first froggie rag quilt. Think in 2012, I'll do an all applique' one. Since the apron swap, I've attempted some applique', and found it to be quite a piece of cake.. like you've said Maid M. Especially like the ones with raw edges showing!! Lolol!!!

By the way, I've started a 'recipe room' in the other building.. hint.. hint..
go check it out.

Eyes about to shut.. another morning tomorrow with a list of errands.

Good night everyone.

When Rick and I first got married he ha a 3/4 ton truck,not wanting me to drive it he cut the power steering belt............Well let me tell ya,I had to lay my whole body on the steering wheel to turn it and it was a 5 speed to boot,but tnat truck and I went to town.............LOL

Yep and even took out a mirror getting around the pole at the post office!!! (ok she didn't take it out...but came might close!!! lol)

I just unadusted it....................LOL Well he had those big DUMBO EAR mirrors on,my biggest fear was pick an old lady off the sidewalk with them.

Hey Julie he got another pick up and he told me to move it in the drive way..........I went into Freds.........LOL I came back and he says you know there isn't any plates on that truck,I said yep I know..........LOL.

OMG......the other night I was just a little bit hungry so I went and got the jar of peanut butter......LOL I was eating it with a teaspoon.Rick was a sleep until I held a spoonful under his nose and he smelled it.He just opens his eyes and says what are you doing now..............LOL.I love to do things to him when he is sleeping and I can't.........

The only time he ever had a hissy was when I was eating celery in bed............LOL.Popcorn bothers him to ,cause when he smells it he want some..........LOL.

He would never let me check his blood sugar,so one night when he was a sleep I checked it and he never even knew until the next morning when I told him it was ok......I had to prick him twice to get any blood to.

Good morning sistahs!!
A pot of dark roast coffee awaits you. There are buttered croissants and thick slices of Virginia ham, along with scrambled eggs to whet your appetite.

Synda.. hope you're still in bed!! Sounds like your marriage will never be a dull one.

Heading off to the other building and then hit the road.

Have a wonderful day.

Morning Jaye, Thanks for breakfast. Where are you of to today?
Synda and Julie, have you two been up all night? Geesh Synda, if I tried anything like that to hubby, while he was sleeping, I think I would be finding a new place to live. Be careful please, we don't want you falling off the roof, and going to the hospital!

awesome stitchin' on that K p's frog...that is the same pattern as mine....

don't ya just love google??!!!

Got to get 2 vehicles inspected, stock up on staples...
LK, I bet you went online and did some comparison shopping for a pc. Good luck sistah.. hope you score a good deal.

Thunder it's in the American Quilter January issue. I'll scan the pages for you when I return.

Off now.. see you all later. Hope the winds die down soon :(
