Debbie, I wish that there was a college here that had quilting classes, I would definetly be taking them, but until they start them I will just continue to take my accounting classes. I am taking the last 2 accounting classes for my degree and then I am slso taking an advanced tax class. I love working with numbers.
I hate moving, but this time we are hiring movers, I will do the packing but someone else can carry the totes down the 2 flights of stairs. My hubby is out of town working so I have to do all the looking and then he says pick the top 3 and he will come home and look at them and then we will decide. Once we find a place we should be able to close and move in 30-60 days so I really need to get moving.
I am waiting patiently for Quiltncowgirl to post pics of her beach trip. Can't wait to see them.

Beach trip...I am going to look too. I could live on a beach. The closest I came to living on a beach was when my family, while living in Japan, went south to my mom's family beachhouse in Miwasaki and the house was on the sea wall....we walked down a little ways and down the stairs and we were on the sand. WOnderful memories.

Then while living in Washington state, we always went to the coast to fly kites, ride horses down the beach, and the guys would run their fueled monster trucks.

OK I am going to check out everyone's pda's and then going to have to get things ready to go to town. Once I get home, I am on my To-do list again.

Ksea. What a wonderful degree to study for. My youngest dd is an accoutning mgr at a firm in Arlington and is finishing her degree in business accoutning too. They promoted her base on her experience and she is getting her degree so she can make the pay too. Scrunching numbers wouldn't be my favorite but to each their own. GOod luck with the move.

Sounds like you have a plan. Hope it goes smoothly.

Debbie I haven't been on the board in a couple of days and this is the first place I checked out. I love all the pictures of the new kitties and Annabelle is being such a good mommy.
It's very hot in Michigan, just like most places, so everyone try to stay cool today. I plan on finising a quilt I'm making for my husband.

The date for the carnival is Aug. 20th. We haven't had much rain since the last one. The only thing keeping everything green is the humidity. There is so much moisture in the air that I can't hardly breathe so I carry my inhaler everywhere.
I spent the morning working on more pincushions but I have to wait for DH to get paid to finish them. I do hope they sell well.

I hope you have a great day and that all goes well at your DH's Dr. appt. today.

BTW I love the pictures of the babies and Annabelle. She is a good mommy.

So glad to see you here. I hear it's hot and humid there. Wonder if it is in the three digits like here. We are just melting. Hope you put a picture in the picture section of the quilt when you are done...Or even here. HUGS♥♥ Thank you for coming to see me first....I hear this a lot.

Hello. Thanks for popping in. I see you have some places for me to look at etsy, etc. and I will. AZ is not that far from me. LOL. I love them too but you are right, it is too much nowadays to take care of them. I'll tell Annabelle everyone likes her babies. HUGS♥♥

There was so much fun stuff to read on your busy highway of news. Hope DH apt goes well. Let us know.
Annabelle is being the best mom.........and with good Debbie supervision. Hope you caught up on some of your rest. You are sounding stronger each day and more and more energy.
I was away yesterday afternoon until evening, didn’t spend too much time on the QB, but did read some.
Your pda and a few others are great places to come visit.
Just love those kitties. I love that she lets then sleep and then goes and looks for you.

Yup we found quite a few when we cleaned. There is no due date for the PL quilts. I get them all the time. The xmas ones are due in november though. Glad you are busy this summer. I love staying busy, but it's been so hot. No more babies and momma has cleaned herself up after I gave her a sponge bath. She's such a good mommy.Well, back to quilting and then lunch for dh. HUGS♥♥


Kittens... How sweet! I know you will enjoy them when they are all trained and playful. LOL!

Well I'm up.....finally. Worked on the project and cleaning up until after midnight. Went to bed with the alarm set for 6:30 so I could get a letter to gramma mo to e-blast to the Guild before she left for quilting this morning then head to the gym. THAT didn't happen. So the e-blast will be much later than planned. And the gym will be late if at all.

I was putting those dots on the fabric pieces and they kept coming off. They are brand new, just bought them last night. So disappointed because we had such a good plan. Well, I'm going to load the photos so
