Gotta get regular

Not what you think...regular at updating my blog. Sometimes it is kinda hard since we both like to be online and we only have the one puter. And we both get the luxury of working. Ahhh.. the American Dream.

Stitching:
So, I am on a stitching rotation:

Monday: Mirabilia Christmas Elf Fairy. This is a SAL with Renee from STO. Whee!

Tuesday: IL's quilt (working my way on the hand quilting, half way done)
Wednesday: Still working on IL's quilt. At this rate, I should hopefully have it done before their first
grandchild and I am not even pregnant!

Thursday: Gifts/exchanges. Right now it is a going away present for Bobbie

Friday: STO JCS ornament SAL

Weekend: Free to do whatever

Gardening:
Did I mention our giant tomato plants? These things must be 6 feet tall. Too bad they have giant spiders living nearby...gives me the heebie jeebies! We do have one little tomato that is turning a nice shade of red already. And tons on the vine that are green. I think that they are the cherry tomatoes. Oh well. They'll eat just the same, especially considering that the tomatoes at the commissary suck.

Pets:
Our cats are hysterical! Lily likes to try to jump at the dart board while DH & I play. Notice Bella and Lady looking on. That cat has got springs in her feet, I think. Bella & Lily seem to get along okay. They sleep together all day and fight and meow and wrestle all night. I was awakened by DH swearing at them while jumping out of bed the other night. Next thing I know, he was kicking the dog's bed out into the hallway and booting them all out of the bedroom for the night. No animals were injured in above sequence. The dog was already in the hall chasing the cats.

Cooking:
I am going to give Pearl a run for her money tomorrow. I am going to make a double batch of oatmeal coconut chocolate chip cookies. I want to take a batch to the Soup Kitchen when we go on Wednesday. Last week we had only yogurt to hand out and I felt kind of bad for them. At least they can have a little something sweet to nibble on.

Well, I am off to work on some emails and other random stuff.

I need to figure out how to do the blogroll thing. I hate clicking on a blog to see that it still hasn't been updated in weeks.

(something about preaching to a choir!)

Peace

I found your blog through another blog and I though I'd say hi. I see that you are stitching Christmas Fairy Elf also. I'm looking forward to seeing a progress picture.
