Miscellaneous, Menus, and Highlights
Thursday

Oct 28
 Barb has a new toy -- a Magellan GPS unit. It's really small -- about the size of a Blackberry cell phone. We played with it all the way to Tilikum.

Coyote Joe's isn't in the GPS index for Coffee, so we think we have added it as a destination.

We arrived a few minutes after 3:00, and there were no cars at the unload spot so we were able to unload right away.

I made double wedding ring arches this evening. I now have 27 arches.

My nose ran *all* day! My nose is sore and red. No Neosporin.

Barb and I were really tired so we went to bed at 11:00 -- and talked until 3:00.

 Niece Leigh Anne's BC surgery today.

Started out today trying to figure out where I stopped on Shades of Green, and why I had more blocks than my diagram. Huh. There was a pink colorway Missouri Star (February) partially cut. I finished cutting the pieces, sewed, pressed, trimmed . . . and trimmed them to 3 1/4 instead of 3 1/2. Luckily, it was just 20 minutes until lunch. Good place to stop.

Feel *much* better this a.m.

Stephanie modeled her corset this afternoon. The wooden part in the center front is the 'busk'.

I ended up spending the entire day working on one block . . . and it turned out wrong. Bed time.
