February 30, 2011 Sunday

Hello,
I cannot believe time has passed so fast. The holidays have come and gone, The new year has come and gone also. School at Cuyamaca College has again started and I am not ready. there is so much to do. It is amazing that so many students remember you from the last semester.
Freddie the dog,


See that is him, he just escaped and decided to go to Faith Chapel Church fortunately there was a nice man who called and told me Freddie wanted to attend church, and asked me to come get him. A few months ago I bought all the animals name tags with my telephone number on them. If the screen door is not shut all the way out he goes.

One thing that did happen over the holidays is that I got alot of quilt projects finished. I got to spend alot of time with my friend Gretchen.
I did alot of house cleaning, yard cleaning, and mental cleaning. Mr. Man the swindler is totally gone. I have not seen him for months. It is very clear when someone has departed how the truth will come forward, at which point you can then see clearly what was really involved in that relationship.
I all most always have so many quilt ideas flying around in my head it is hard to think, but with school I now have to concentrate on the law. I am in a class with Judge sturgeon's from El Cajon, Ca. called Civil Litigation. We are required to draft a Complaint, an Answers and then a Interrogatory. That is alot of work for one semester.

Well Freddie is barking again at a cat, better go rescue the cat.
Have a great Sunday.

Judy Laquidara

I was reading Judy Laquidara's patchwork blog this morning about how the tote bags are multiplying.
I looked in my closet and in the quilt room and she is right, We have more tote bags than I could ever use. I used to keep a bunch in the back of the vehicle so when I go to the grocery store I would have bags, but then the back of the 4 runner always looked so messy and I returned then to the closet. I think that I could stand outside the grocery store for a week and hand out free tote bags and still have a bunch left over. Most of my friends are in the same position also.
Many cites are are now banning plastic bags, so I think it would be a great idea for all of us quilters to hand out all of our extra tote bags we have stored in the spaces around our homes.
We could call it the Quilters tote bag give away.
I have been sewing up a storm in between school semesters and have finished 5 UFO's that stand for unfinished objects. It is actually quilt squares that I started and never finished. I am going to try to sell those quilts at the San Diego Quilt show this august.

My bad cold is finally getting better. I have had it since 3 days before Christmas and have been
home now for 10 days with this bad cold. Oh Well everyone else has it also. Even one of my cats had to go to the Vet as she was sick. Nothing to do but keep her in the house and warm.
Well today is the first week of the new year and I really have to get something done today.
Have a great week.
