• Life has gotten back into a routine here, Joe is back to work and I'm making headway in my projects
• After tearing apart and then rebuilding my sewing room stash, the 2 Legacy quilt blocks I thought I had lost were found...a friend took them to do a tad bit more stitching, WHEW!!!!  That was a restless night but solved with 1 phone call to admit my OOPS! NOT! :)
• The apple tree we thought was diseased was merely preparing to be over stressed...there's hundreds of apples, good sized ones but still a bit tart for eating.
• After a couple years of issues, looks like we'll be buying a new washer...this one is missing parts of cycles etc...tired of sitting beside it waiting to tweak the knob!
• Books continue to play a big part in our home.  Joe jumped into the world of ebook with a new KOBO early September.  He can now take multiple books when he's traveling for work. I still ♥ my SONY Reader!
• The Legacy quilt is coming together. It's a slow process trying to coordinate schedules with 3 other busy women.
• I'm back to cross stitching in the afternoon.  I have committed to a piece for a breast cancer research auction in the US...must get it done and in the mail pronto!
• Still quilting.  I've got a few projects on the go.  Items to be made up for the library's craft sale in November are planned but need to be executed.  A certain someone has a dozen Christmas quilts she wants done for this year!  Stop laughing, we have a game plan!
• I've very happy with the new over the range microwave we picked up in the US late August.  My counters seems so much more spacious.  Luckily a charity we donate to called a few days after the install and took away the old unit for someone else. Win win.
• We are loosely planning our summer vacation next year...hard to do when Joe has just started with a new company and is working by the day.  Not sure how that will pan out...haven't seen a pay day yet...soon though. Anyways, planning on touring BC and visiting with another certain someone!  Kids/grandkids grow up so fast.
• I'll close with a photo of my latest mini project...will be quilting it later today! Be good everyone and leave me a comment so I know who's stopped by!
