Lifes Like That

Since both of the kids were sick this past weekend, we didn’t go anywhere or do anything special.  We just stayed inside all weekend to try to get them better.  So, I spent a lot of time sewing over the weekend.  The doggie quilt that I started for a friend of mine that I used to work with is really coming along quite nicely.  If I keep up this pace with it, I should be ready to put the stuffing and back on it within the next couple of weeks.  It is a very easy quilt to make and a very easy pattern, so this is why it isn’t taking me quite so long to get the work done on it.  My friend is going to be really surprised when I call her to tell her it’s completed.  When I am finally done with it, I will post a picture of the finished product.  So, look for a picture to be posted here within the next couple of weeks.

One of my best friends lives way out in the country. She lives so far out, that she needs to take a boat to be able to get back and forth from her house to our town. So you can just imagine what her cell reception is like. It is a serious pain when she calls me from her cell phone. Because of the type of reception she gets most of the time I can’t hear her clearly and on a couple of occasions I have actually lost her in mid conversation. I keep telling her that she needs to move closer to me so we can talk better, but I really don’t think she will ever move away from her boat! lol
