My Day

I started out my day by doing a load of wash. Then I went to the Sr. Center for yoga. That is a real work out. My aged joints just aren't that flexable anymore, but I do what I can. Maybe I will get better with time??? I had AJ this afternoon. We made a loaf of banana bread. I had some ripe bananas that I wanted to use up. The bread came out alright - not wonderful - but alright. I worked on my knitted hat some more. Two inchs to go and I get to start decreasing. It cooled down this evening (the temp was in the high 80's today) so I went out for a nice long walk this evening. The breeze felt sooo good. After I got home, Michele called and asked if I wanted to go to Friendlys for ice cream (dumb question). We went and she insisted I have a sandwich before ice cream. She knows I'm not eating as I should. I had a turkey club and we had sundaes and lots of conversation.
There is nothing special going on tomorrow. Only work at JoAnn's in the evening. TR will probably stop by for some banana bread. Good night, everyone and sweet dreams...

What I did today

I got out early this morning (about 7AM) for my walk. It was foggy and their was a mist in the air. It felt good. Later I went to Friendlys for breakfast with my friend, Joan. We did a lot of catching up. This afternoon I went to noon Mass and then quilting. I'm still working on that hat. The design in it is complicated and I'm not doing well at concentrating, but I AM going to finish it one of these days.

I worked at JoAnn's this evening. Tomorrow morning is yoga and AJ will be here in the afternoon. The weather man said it is going to be hot again tomorrow and will cool off on the weekend. Cool will be good. I am looking forward to that. I'm going to start to get ready for bed. Good night...

This morning at quilting I started this small "Quick Trip" quilt for the quilting group. I still need to find something for the border and binding and backing. Maybe tomorrow I will get that done. We are needing some quilts to sell. This afternoon I went with some friends to an old quilt shop that is closing. It had be...en in business for several years. There was lots of interesting stuff, but nothing that I needed. Tomorrow is knitting at church and work in the evening.

After my morning walk I baked a couple of loaves of Beet Bread. I had some left over frozen beets that I wanted to use up. AJ was here for awhile this afternoon and I had a chance to work on my knitted hat while we watched TV. After his Mom picked him up, we all went to "the club" for hot dogs and pop corn. After I ate, I went to work at JoAnn's. Now I'm ready to get in bed - again.
Good night, everyone

My Morning Walk

Today was a great day. It was nice and cool for my morning walk. There is a sad happening here in Johnson City. One of the oldest churchs in this area is being taken down and has been replaced by a new building across the river. My Grandparents were married in that church. Some people call this "progress". I call it "awful". I love the old buildings in our area and we have lots of them. They are part of our history.

Hi... I'm still here

Hi. I'm still here. I can't believe it has been over a month since I last posted anything.
I have been busy with my job at JoAnn Fabrics. I have been getting in a lot of extra hours lately - which is good. Now that AJ is in school all day, I don't get to spend very much time with him anymore. Only three hours (at the most) twice a week. That is a real bummer.
I have joined a knitting group at church. At this time I am making some knitted hats and mittens for the children at Samaritan (? sp) House. I have also made some soap sacks and wash cloths for them. I have taken up Yoga on Mon. morning after line dancing. Some of the moves are difficult, but I am enjoying myself.
I am about ready to go get in bed. I'm tired tonight. Tomorrow will be a busy day. Good night...
