A year or so later....

Today is my day to update my blog. I will try to come here daily, use it as a diary as I first intended, and keep me focused on my projects.
We are finally getting the rain we have needed for weeks, and this should save the lawns, crops, and bring up the rivers and lakes somewhat. The robins are sure loving it, have seen several hopping around, even up on the cement patio, with squirmy worms in their beaks. We have a couple mother ducks in the area, one with 3 babies, and one with about 9. There is also a single young duckling all alone, hope he or she makes it, have seen it feeding under the bird feeders. There are predators around, just looking for something tasty. The ducks like the rain too.
Today I will head up to my "sewing studio" and work more on Jill's wedding quilt, more rows to make and sew on, then quilt, quilt, quilt. I wonder how long that will actually take me, I need it done in 3 weeks!
Denny started working day hours this week, and he will play horseshoes this evening if it stops raining, so I'll be alone many hours and will have time to quilt, and maybe some housework. We need to learn to go to bed earlier, 5:15 a.m. comes fast. At least it's only 3 days a week, as he has 4 day weekends all summer.
