Hey Cherries. Cloudy today but headed to the 50s. After rain all day yesterday we’ll have rain again tonight. I have to go out and make some returns today along with a bunch of errands I have to run. Then back to wrapping.
Hope you all have a great day.

Pleasant temps here again today with a lot of fog this morning! Our grocery day and then I need to get some wrapping and organizing done. I hope to do a few more challenges before the end of the month.

Good Morning! Our weather is finally turning colder so I have to get some things done outside before the negative temps hit. I also have wrapping to do and to finish up some shopping. Christmas decorations are up but I do have to finish up the tree.
I hope you Cherries are all doing well

Made good progress on sewing the quilt yesterday considering I got a really late start. (mid-late afternoon) Had to rip out stitching the very first 2 squares I sewed because I sewed them wrong sides together instead of right.
And then one other one because I sewed one too many '2 squares' together) - realized this when I was short a yellow square. So much for my counting skills.
So I've got all the 3-square sections sewn together. Today I need to iron those seams and then sew the sections together to make the 9-patch blocks.
We got some snow last night. All pretty but now it'll be disappearing because tomorrow will be mid-50s and RAIN.

Ooo, negative temps....not for me. Our years near Chicago and Buffalo were enough. I'm liking the milder weather here in SE PA.DN in MN wrote: ↑Tue Dec 10, 2024 10:24 amGood Morning!

Good Morning!
Chilly here to start the day at 25F. I headed out to walk yesterday and my gosh, it was chilly. Thought it would be warmer at 37, but that wind was nasty and cold! We shall see what today holds..
Need to get groceries. And probably clean bathrooms. I did get all my baking accomplished yesterday and DD was super happy to take a bunch of it home with her. I did escape into my scrap space yesterday and get a couple layouts finished up and into the gallery. Think I will finish up wrapping my sisters stuff and hopefully get it sent out!
That’s about it for me! Have a great Tuesday!

Not much going on here. I was on the phone with two different friends this morning so DH went to the grocery store to pick up a few things. I’ll be heading into my scrap room a little later.

Hey, it's STILL so cool that you're sewing! Even if you've made a few mistakes, you're STILL MUCH better at it than I am!
Enjoy your day!

I just got back last night from a week in Israel. It was wonderful. Today I’ve been unpacking and doing laundry and I have quite a bit of jet lag. I had plans to write down the December challenges and scrap today but that hasn’t happened so far, I’m pretty draggy from the jet lag. Benjamin finished his semester yesterday and flies home tonight, so I’m planning to make a lasagna for a family dinner. He’ll be here for almost a month so I’m happy about that.

Hey Cherries
I'm off today and no plans until later this evening. (I'm going to an AA meeting with a friend - I do this for friends who need to go and don't want to go alone.)
I want to make a few more cards, and I need to address and send them out. STILL have to find two addresses and I MEAN I was busy yesterday so I did not get to it.
I like my new rheumatologist enough. My blood pressure was a bit high yesterday but I think that was just me being tired and high pain levels.
Still a bit achy today, but I'll survive!
There's so many challenges I still want to do so maybe some scrappin' today! I never did finish clearing off my work space, but...
ALSO REALLY tempted by this sale!
Have a great day Cherries!
