Very exciting day, one son returns from a long week in TN @ CIY camp, another arrives in the wee hours of tonight/Monday from San Diego for a little fun in the sun! Very spur of the moment, pulled together event due to hubby's new job and what will be lack of days off for a long while. It's all working out!

Comcast you are history! I'll gladly pay whatever the minimum requirement is to get them OUT of my life.... Geesh what do folks do that fall for their 2 years rates/contract? Now guess what.... they somehow ERASED all my future recordings. Not one show remains. And they are not user friendly to set up recordsing either.... UGH. Oh well, my gain. FIVE days of dealing with them this week alone... I'm done.

Wild winds! Very nice stretch of beach and hotel. Moon, ocean and pool view! Too bad I'm still enjoying the views alone....

Home, my own coffee, feet up outdoors enjoying my time watching the birds and enjoying cook temps. Great getaway and a beautiful morning home.

1st day for DH back to work....got only a few blocks from the house and the car stops working. Yep, the same one that the oil light came on for me 2 months in a row when I tried to go to quild meeting. It's had check engine and oil lights come on. DH had the diagnostics done and they said it was something whacky in the panel. Hmmmm maybe not. So far @ about $800 for voltage spike that took out the battery and alternator. Plus all my morning! At least I work from home and could deal...

Service man is supposed to pick up my longarm this week for service so no quilting scheduled, he will keep it for about 3 days. Thinking I have the day cleared to work on my Bali Wedding Star. Comcast cable due to be here again 10-12.... but nothing else on my to do list. Hubby off to work, one still sleeping and one watching cartoons. Headed to my studio - woohoo!

Going to be a long difficult day... awake since 2AM and have to leave in 2 hours to drive to to my mothers for some Drs and errands. Gave in and having my coffee. The last visit was like this too. Hope it does not end with another major storm and no power in the city when I return like last time. Lately I've been getting a nice 6 hours of sleep too... till I have to do a road trip. Ugh.

After a long debate with myself...I'm staying home and working on the frame. I got all the remaining components 1/2 completed for my Bali quilt at our workshop yesterday. Woohoo! Would love to go to sew-in today and finish those little oval units...but this quilt on the frame is calling sweetly.

We have finally had a few days without rain. Cleaned patio and smoking a brisquet. 92* with 103* heat index....why am I sitting outside?

Driving 30 minutes each way to get to a doc on your plan...when a good one a family member goes to is 5 minutes from your own driveway....

Oh my gosh! I just sat down to relieve the stress in my neck (issues since the long drive to S.Texas - I need a chiropractor), went to scoop up my hair like putting it in a pony tail and pull it to one side over my shoulder. Whoops! It scooped... then ended! No hair to move out of the way LOL!

Something that does not happen often in my backyard...breeze and humidity below 50%. Gosh it feels so nice outside!

2 hrs at dentist office with the boys and no hand work prepared. Already read everything in the office.

Susan Cleveland.."piping hot curves" fame was speaker tonight. Not only awesome quilts....but she was funny too!

I baked some potatoes tonight, plain and just on the rack... Was sort of on hold waiting for hubby to come home and had re-set the timer on the oven. Shortly after, heard a loud noise. One of the potatoes EXPLODED all inside my oven! What a mess... guess I won't do that again LOL!

I have the entire day. No appts on the schedule, not even for the evening, summer Swim and Study (2 different nights) for the boys is OVER. Leftovers for lunch and a simple dinner is planned. I have a customer quilt and 2 charity quilts waiting plus I have not touched my Bali since the last workshop - maybe a month ago? Geesh my rotary cutter was still in my travel bag the other day! But today, I MUST deal with paperwork and filing. Plus the bottom is falling out of my cherry 2 dr...

Awesome dinner tonight. Had Mick with me at grocery today. Sampled 3 entree's and one soup that Mick said I had to make..... Soup was my favorite and the sauce/base came from a jar! plus a Chicken dish for dinner ... YUMMMMM delish!
