I've always wanted to do a blog but never thought I had much to say so I decided to try it combining my love of quilting, my dogs and whatever tickles my fancy at the time. Be prepared to be amazed, amused and astonished. Thought those 3 words went well together.
I'm not sure how to post pictures but will try to eventually figure it out.
I've recently turned 55 and was amazed that when you say something silly, someone might listen. Example...My husband, son & I went to see Gamer a couple weeks ago. When I asked for tickets for 2 adults and 1 student my mind went completely blank and I couldn't remember what we were seeing. I said something silly about it being a senior moment, remembered the name. He ended up giving me a ticket for one adult, one student and one senior.
Again, last weekend my daughter and I went to see the Time Travelers Wife, excellent by the way. My daughter is always yelling at me for being so talkative with checkers in the store but sometimes I can't help it. When we were buying the tickets, again I made some comment about senior because of some sign they had in the window. He laughed and said no way... bothe Cassie and I said "Way". I saved 2.50 on my ticket...it was a night show. We don't go to movies that often because they are so expensive, even the matinees are not cheap anymore so I decided since I can why not. I'm not ready to be a senior citizen yet but if it will save me a couple bucks, what the heck.
This has been a quiet weekend. Saturday Ethan and I went to see Surrogates..big fan of Bruce Willis. It was a great movie. We both loved it. When we got home Cassie pulled in the drive right behind us. She comes up to do her laundry and Saturday afternoon and we have a family dinner. We played Trivial Prusuite, Disney kids version and trust me there are a lot of tough questions last weekend and had a blast so we decided to play again. This is not a quick game but we were having so much fun we didn't really notice.
As you can see by the picture (haven't figured out how to insert elsewhere yet) Chase decided she wanted to play too. Of course she thought there was food too. The first time she got up to the table she was a year or so old and I was baking cookies... She won't take anything unless you sit it in front of her or offer it to her. Now Tootsie would be up on the table in a heart beat if you let her sit in the chair but she is a larger lab and leggy so don't think we will have to worry about that.
Today was great for me. Ben is a runner. He and the kids were out of her at 7am to drive an hour away to a run. Afterwards they will go to a Harvest Fair. Then this evening they are all going to see Lewis Black. I could go to but having the day to myself & the girls is more appealing. I did do laundry and finished a Halloween wall hanging. I'll have to post a picture later.
Well I suppose this should be enough for my first post. Since I've started I'm going to try and post a little every day, even if it's something silly or stupid about work...that should fill a very large page... Have a great week :)
