Friday morning dawned like any other...I got hubby off to work, (he wasn't happy to be awake) the kids didn't want to go to school...especially my youngest who is 13. He doesn't ever want to go to bed at night and the "I have a stomach ache" excuse is used at least twice throughout the week. Well, Thursday night he came into my room after lights out claiming he was nauseous...he was pretty convincing! Clammy skin & goose-bumped, I administered the Pepto and sent him back to bed with a bowl, just in case. He didn't say much in the morning, so I figured things had passed, to school we went, I dropped him off and told him to call me if he got pukey again, with the "hey, it's an early release day and a long weekend" pep talk, I drove home and finished my pre-work ritual. I had no more than rounded the corner out of the neighborhood, when the school called me to come pick him up (big sigh). I called my Sgt. to let her know I wouldn't be in and started planning my day at home. Here is what I came up with
I made 9 blocks with red before wondering if a less traditional color would be more to my liking...upon asking my husband which color he liked best, he wisely pondered the blocks on the wall before answering, "How many do you have done in red?"
Ohhhh, he is funny, funny boy!!! "That is NOT what I asked", said I. "Okay, I like the green". I have to say that I agree with him! Heck, what would a quilt of mine be if I didn't have a moment of indecision I ask you?? On a slower note...I all but have the first row hand sewed together on my Grandmother's Flower Garden!! That makes me pretty excited to say the least. Not much indecision there, I gotta say that I am pretty pleased with the color combinations on this one...and with that, I will leave you.
