Today was stay at home and work out day....so i put my big girl panties on and got after it. 30 minutes on the treadmill started me off. started at 2.5 mph and every five minutes upped the speed and the incline 1 notch. ... at 25 minutes, every minute went down in speed and incline until i was back where i started. then took a water break and wiped sweat and did some arm exercises on the cable machine and a few dozen squats. that should hold me for today.
Got over to the studio and got the binding on my Secession quilt. this was started in January of this year....i actually got it quilted and the binding on in the same year. how about that?
Then quilted up a little wallhanging for our vet. will drop it off at his office tomorrow on my way through town. sorry about the crappy picture. i do wish the camera fairies were nicer to me.
There were snow flurries today....i so am not a fan of snow. for a while it was tough...large flakes and wind blowing like crazy. thankfully it stopped after about an hour. nothing much stayed on the ground. i think the wind blew it all away. i hope it blows it all to Kansas or somewhere.
Went back to the house about 3 and put together 6 pillowcases for Sandy Hook Elementary. have 11 more to sew up. hope to get most of those done tomorrow. Brenda is making some, too. she tells me she has 7 done already and more on the way....thank you Brenda. and Sharon has a few done, too. don't i have the best, compassionate friends? will mail them off the end of the month.
My garden seeds came today, too. we might need to plow up more space. i think i will need the garden area plus the old garden area, too. i will be planting: bell peppers, banana peppers, carrots, okra, bushel gourds, watermelon, tomatoes for eating, burpless cucumbers, roma tomatoes for canning, cantaloupe, corn, pole beans, yard long green beans, and cushaw squash. there's going to be a lot of watering going on....then a lot of eating....then a lot of canning....and some playing with the dehydrator. going to be a busy summer.
Got 2 more DJ blocks quilted. Gonna go sit and read for a while. Talk to you...
tomorrow
