THE FIRST 100 DAYS IN THE NEW YEAR

Wow - plans change ~SNAP!~  just like that!!   I went from wanting to organize my quilty things in Katie's room and the basement to MOVING my quilty things in her room TO the basement and spent most of Saturday organizing it all downstairs.  Katie is home and also brought along her friend and her friend's dog.  (I am NOT a dog person.)  She is a good dog, but - no, I don't want to keep her, no, I don't want to take her to the woods for her potty business - I just don't want her to take me down the hill like another friends dog did.  I was on the ground in an instant being pulled along by an animal that was much stronger than myself.  And, not saying anything about my shirt being ruined I had on at the time with grass stains from that little escapade!

Just finished mentioning to someone on a quilt site about my Blog here and how it's fun to have one, but have to figure out the Follower section (had 1 Follower who has now disappeared - think I accidentally deleted her) and the Comment section (either no one has anything to say about what I've written or they aren't able to comment for some reason that I haven't figured out yet).  I do admit I am not the brightest Blog writer out there, but I try. 

So - what have I accomplished the first 100 days of this glorious year?  Not much.  How could those days have gone so fast?  Who took them?  Is it really April 9th?  I have about 40 school days left until Summer vacation.  I always have plans - mostly quilty plans - and do tend to get lots done when I don't have to go to work where I mostly listen to kids whine most of the day.  If they would just do their schoolwork, it would actually take less energy to get it finished than by adding the whining attached to it. 

Oh - so back to the beginning.  I finally got my quilty things organized in the basement!  I now know where my needle threaders and seam rippers are.  Sometimes it's the little gadgets that are handy that mean the most.  Especially when you waste time looking for something you just KNOW you have!  All the to-do-projects are in closed containers so little basement buggies can't get to them.  I even have a written list of where they are so when I feel like it's their turn to be worked on, I can go right to them and grab onto them.  How organized am I!!

Well, need to scoot for now.  I feel the need to get SOMEthing accomplished on my last day of Spring break. 

Tada,     Trish
