Mixed Blessings

Patriotic top done..such a good feeling.  I am going to donate it as is to our guild.
Our guild has measurement requirements...eg a wheelchair quilt is so many inches.
And a veteran quilt is another size...Since I am not a rule follower...
If I donate this as is...then someone will decide on a size and finish it.
I understand that different people like different parts of the quilting process.
 Oh...Dylan...You are so great!!!   Par-boiling the peppers above...AND taking the picture.
 Stuffing the peppers!!
Voila!!!!   And now they are all gone...
Great job Dyl!!!1
Our IQ Zoom last night was so wonderful...It lifted my spirit to realize that
I still have good friends...I forget that, in this isolation.
It was after this Zoom , that Dylan and I had the energy to make a nice dinner.
Asparagus from the oven.
Dylan learned a lot last night..sauteing garlic, sprinkling cheese, setting the timer.
A lovely dinner...and a lovely night.

My girl is in the family way...xoxo
I loved this from Jenny at Missouri Star
Going to get my son to put up the bar for me.
We already have holiday lights around our door.
Anything to cheer us all..

I just finished a webinar on Complicated Grief and Covid-19.
 I learned some awful news about our country.  I learned that the USA
has less than 5% of the world's population, yet, the USA has 25 to 30% of
both the world's cases and deaths of Covid-19.
Our country is handling this pandemic so poorly that we are at the very bottom with India and Brazil.
We are handling it this so badly, that European countries are working on excluding travel from the USA
I am disgusted!!
On to the next quilty project...something I can control..

The birthday and the Pinterest account

HAPPY 29TH BIRTHDAY EMILY

I know I am in big trouble for posting this picture of years ago of my darling daughter,Emily.  I think it was at her 
audition at Manhattan School of Music...but, today is her birthday  HAPPY BIRTHDAY EMILY!!!!  I am not even prejudiced, but you are beautiful, talented, kind hearted, clever and sweet., and the best daughter ever! ...etc..and I miss you mucho.xxoo, even though I know you are so happy in Ireland.

AND, as for posting pictures without permission....There is the Pinterest thing.  When I read this post from 
lMarianne about Pinterest, I thought it was a bit much..I mean what harm is there in a little pinning?
.  That is until I read the links and the blog post.  Whether or not you follow this lead..I think the information is interesting.  Now, I have deleted my Pinterest account.  Sigh.  I should have been sewing anyway.
