Mid week check in

 Monday - after working I had Aidan's 17 year physical. He got there a minute late according to me and 16 minutes according to them... but I know I confirmed the 3:45 not 3:30 time. Sigh. They finally got us in at 4:40. He is good, lost 20 pounds over the year and is now in a healthy range.

Tuesday - I got off work early (noon) as Greg has gotten Gout in his foot and so I was tapped with bringing his dad to the Urologist. So, 30 minutes to pick him up, 45 minutes to the doctors office, nearly 2 hours there and then returned him home to his assisted living.... I opted to not head home and instead went right to Emily's Pre-MPA (Music Performance Assessment) in town. I did a quick Popeye's for dinner then got there to help out at the table to hand out the kids food. Then watched the bands all perform for a couple of hours. I got home about 9:30 last night.


This is all the schools marching bands in the county.

Wednesday -  laundry - as the cat is being a pest and peeing on my bed. Arrggg. Sheets are washed again with the quilt. I did finish the hand quilting on the little 20x20 four patch quilt after work so I'll trim it up and make and attach a binding tonight. I'm planning to do order out tonight - we have a local fundraiser at Red Robin for 20% of sales going to our local county's girl scouts. I'm going to try the family burger deal - looks like $11 for a built your own burger at home with fries. We will see how it goes.

 This is the top of the little quilt but I do love the look on the back as well.



Reading: Hope Holloway the Seven Sisters Series of books on audible. She is a great storyteller and I admit, I bought 5 extra audible credits so I could binge listen to all of them. I'll be checking out her other series soon, but I've got a libby book checked out I need to listen to first. I enjoyed how she wove the storyline around all the family members and kept it interesting. 

Time to go uncover the cutting mat in the sewing area and get this trimmed up and a binding made and attached for hand stitching later tonight.
