Made alive, what happened to January....? I know it was just Christmas yesterday. Time flys by.
My little right finger is healing up nicely after being cut open by the rotary cutter. That really hurt.
I have been sewing, but only things already cut and waiting to be sewn. If I need any additional parts. I have to cut with scissors, No rotary cutters for me. Well not for awhile.
I refilled all the bird feeder, the rain has stopped for a time. The birds are all sworming the feeders, That is one of the pleasures of bird feeders. Seeing all the great birds enjoy the food.

Life is too short to wake up with regrets. So love the people who treat you right. Forget about the one's who don't. Believe everything happens for a reason. If you get a second chance, grab it with both hands. If it changes your life, let it. Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would be worth it.

When if ever dell delivers my new computer I will have so many quilts to post on the Internet of what I have been doing everyone will think that is all I do, however, I have not been able to post a picture of one of my quilts for months.
Today after it warms up outside I get to go plant or rather re-plant the plum tree, my garden planted it but did a very bad job. And I paid him to do it.
Well it is almost 9:00 and I have to get running.
Go spend the day with someone you love and have fun.

Rotary cutter disaster at home

Tuesday night Jan 26, 2010 I was working away late at night and watching television, Not to be done while rotary cutter is in hand and .........your right cut right over my little finer into the nail bed. Can you believe how much blood there was.... alot.
Today is Thursday and I can finally look at it. I have been soaking it in warm water for two days and the pain has gone away a bit, but it still hurts.
Dell computer has yet again told me my computer is delayed. I called and they say apart is on the way to India from Japan, by sail boat... or something. Or maybe pony express, that will take a year.
Since it is paid for and Dell will not refund the money ... It has been almost 3 months since I order that computer, it was the day after Thanksgiving.....
I have been quilting but only sewing, no rotary cutter for me.... I have been sewing things already cut out, that just needs to be put together.

Mr. man has not talked to me for 3 months now.. since I called his Baby sister Consuelo..... the woman who started out as baby sister and I am sure has got into his................you fill in the blanks.
As I had said in the past it is hard loosing someone who you think is you friend especially when he works in the neighborhood where I live and we run into each other often.
Well who wrote "Braking up is hard to do" knew what they were singing.
I can only pray for him and hope that after he finished scamming me and hustling me he is happy with his life.
Yesterday I was at GTM at discount store for Costco and ran into a lady who was getting stuff for canning and asked her if she wanted to give me lessons to can. Now I think I have told you in the past my friend from Montana, Patty cans everything. I swear Patties ear must of been burning, because later that night she called me.
San Diego is really cold, there is snow up in the mountains and the cold air is blowing down to San Diego. It has not reached 70 degrees here in weeks. That is cold for San Diego.
Well got to get going, I am off to Rosies Quilt shop today, and then on to The Quilted Rose.
Have a great day, Sorry to dump so much on you in one day.

January 20, 2010 Wednesday

It has been pouring raining, raining and now it is going to rain more. I can only keep one room warn at a time, so I have been keeping the sewing room warmed up. Hopefully by the week end it will be warmer. Coldness is good in a way, it keeps you in the house and makes you bind all those quilts that you have no done before.
My handyman is coming over to help me dig a trench behind the garage to get the rain a water to drain away.
Yesterday I made a large pot of chicken soup, the dogs, and I really enjoyed it. It reminded me of when my mother was here and she always made great soups.
Since my return from Road to California I have had a head full of ideas, but as always I have to do maintenance on the apartments and houses and that takes away from sewing.
Well I have to get started on the things that I have to do. Hopefully this afternoon I will be able to sew some more.
Also yet again my computer has been delayed, it was supposed to arrive before Christmas, Now dell is saying maybe in February.

January 7, Thursday 2010

Thursday, 2 more days till the week end. Ya. Time goes by so fast, I can not believe it.
Yesterday I was watching a news cast and realized that 5 years has flown by since Toni Gynn retired from the Padres baseball team and it seamed just like just yesterday.
My tenants on Chalmers street need a new washing machine for their house, the old one which is only 2 years old broke. So there goes another (5) Five hundred dollars.
I finally got to go back to the ear doctor who said another month before I can get back into the pool and start swimming again.
However after the doctor appointment I went to lunch with Marilyn my friend across the street and then to the animal shelter and ended having a great day.
On the way to the animal shelter I drove down grove street, which has always been my short cut and Marilyn noticed that it was the street where my man works. Sorry that is the short cut way to the animal shelter.
I guess no more short cut, I may run into that bad person and that would not be good.
Today my plan was to get up and go work with the cats, but now I have to go look at washing machines and get a new one for the rental.
Plans can never be what you expected, that is why old Chinese saying "Flow with it".
Well have a great day try to accomplish something.
