Short and sweet this week. Last week at this time I was up in the mountains at a quilting retreat. Thank you to all you faithful Randomeers for continuing to post the randomness that IS life, even when I haven't been able to catch up with reading all the great posts. I appreciate you all.
By the end of the weekend, the temperature dropped and on Saturday night it rained, and because we were at 7,000 feet, it turned to sleet. Someone started a fire in a huge stone fireplace. Perfect.
I spent some quality time with selvages from
Laurie Wisbrun. I'll post more about those on Friday, along with information on glue basting, which has changed my life.
Okay, the totally random thing was that I stayed with my friend,
Deborah, who has a cabin directly across the lake from our quilting retreat, along with
Vicki. When driving to the cabin one night after dark, Vicki and I saw cows. Cows!! We kind of couldn't believe it. I mean, we were at 7,000 feet elevation. In the mountains. By a lake.
Proof.
When I came home on Sunday, Mark and I celebrated Charlotte's birthday. We took her out to dinner, along with her brother.
How do they grow up so quickly??
Her other grandparents took her shopping and got her some shoes.
You have to see them more closely. Really. She loves her bling.
Our daughter-in-law,Christa, has started being a consultant for the company
Thirty-One. It makes the most amazing storage items--containers, totes, etc. She just received the "room to grow" utility bin. Apparently you can even store a small child in it....with room to grow.
I leave you with this thought.
Your turn.
