It's Official - I can't make windows 7 work.

Well, I give up. All I wanted to do was download a new calendar for January 2011.  I purchased Office Home and Student 2010 and it won't load along with Office 2003.  I don't know how to get it to work.  I'll take it to the kids down the street and pay them  to fix it.

Happy happy day!

Happy new year anyway

It's Another Friday

Dear bloggie,

Hello again,  It's another Friday and the weekend is full.  The quilts are progressing nicely and I wish I had more time to finish.  More photos to come of what's been done so far. 

I have some still in the works and some that are needing to be done.  This is my life and will be this way until I stop.   I'm both blessed and cursed. 

Tonight is quilting with the gang and I will work on the quilt from Jerry's class.  I need ideas to quilt it. 

Until I have time to post again...

Update - Life of Debbie

Dear Bloggie,

A lot has happened since I last posted.  I've been halfway around the world and got a new part time job.  I went to work for state Board of Equalization in early August.  I like it, except for commuting downtown, and the work is not hard.  I get to see people two days a week. 

The trip of a lifetime #1 is in the books.  I spent twelve days traveling through Europe and had a ball!  Buckingham Palace,  Oberammagau (Sp?), the Seine, the Rhine, Rome, Florence, Venice, Lucine, the Train Ride, the Palace at Versailles (SP?), the Moulon Rouge, the Eiffel tower, too much!  My favorite was Florence.  I could long-term visit there.   The trip was "If It's Tuesday, it Must Be Belgium." genre.  Very fast and I wanted to stay longer, which set me up for another tour. 

More later....

Dear Bloggie,

Went to Arty Q's today and showed three quilts. Well, Two wall hangings and a quilt. McNamera sampler was a hit. I got down on the floor to point things out and then was able to get up. The gym is paying off! Photos to come

Slow days

Hi Everyone!

Very slow unproductive days. The only thing new is the decorations on the front porch. Pictures to follow.

Going to Tayo's to work on a project.

Good Morning Bloggie,

I went to the art group meeting yesterday and was inspired by what others have done. I learned a lot, too. I learned that what I create in my head and imagine as a project usually will not produce the exact same image after scissors are put to fabric.

I also learned if the first image doesn't work well, make another one. Others do this, too.

There is a group that meets in the south area twice a week that excluseively work on their own projects. I lost my place I used to sew once a week (read I left because of wagging tongues). I'm hopeful this group will be a better fit for me. A safe place I can go to piece my own stuff.

I'll keep you posted.

Onward

Dear Bloggie,

Also getting card to insert my cell phone chip into my computer to get the pictures off the phone. I have 152 pics on the phone. Mostly quilts. blah blah blah.
