THE HEAT'S ON, ET AL

 

Here's where you need to be today!!
Muggy yet again :
Temp not quite as high=79.4
but Dew Point is at 76--
murky skies with 
thunderheads looming...
Wouldn't rain be nice???

Where O where are you
Cold Front?????

*****************************
I spent the morning catching up on 
household chores and making these 
Twice baked potatoes
to go with our BBQ-ed
Steak dinner tonight...
Y U M !!!
I know this sounds ridiculous
but.....
I am so happy to be able
 to work around
the house once again
without pain most days...
😊
*******************
I ended up machine quilting
Autumn Stars--with
straight lines on the vertical
and horizontal seams..
I will try to just hand quilt 
around the blue stars
but after doing just one yesterday
my hand seized up once more...
Soooo
back to wearing this
I will try a bit of handwork 
while wearing this, but just typing here
hurts, so it'll be awhile....
Here is where I am right now:
 
Here is that little bit of echo quilting
around the star points...
*********************************
Our 58th Wedding Anniversary
is tomorrow
[I know, don't ask!!]
and for my present Tom got me
this lovely item:
A Canon Ivy 2 printer that
prints photos off my phone
:)))))))))))
I am just thrilled with it!
It works so well and the little
photos are 2"x3"
just perfect for my 
Junque Journal pages...
He got a new laptop with
a wonderful 15" screen...
Great for our aging 👀👀.

I hope your Sunday is a cool one

Hugs, Julierose,
