Well we knew it was bound to happen, it usually does. The snow all melts, the weather warms and then this happens
Even though its not a total surprise it is a disheartening little event. We did not get the brunt of it but we got enough to make it look like a winter wonderland yet again. Sigh, Its heavy and wet and will be gone soon enough but it does knock the stuffing out of a person.
So there is a pot of soup simmering on the stove, the laundry is chugging away in the machine and I am currently ignoring the number of jobs that I would like to get done.
I would like to get the kitchen chairs finished recovering, two done, two more to go. I have a metal storage cabinet that I want to paint, I've had the paint for ages. I have some furniture upstairs that needs painting, There are more jobs but I just can't think of them at the moment. It amazes me how much I can want to do and how much I can ignore at the same time. I am a mystery unto myself.
I am getting one thing done, Probably the easiest thing for me to do and the one I love the most. Yes I am ignoring a lot of other things because of this:
I think this just may be my first donation quilt. I have given this a lot of thought. I will always want to quilt. I can only give away or have people ask me to make so many. Most of that market is saturated. I don't need any quilts, strangely enough I have more than I need. So I have decided to use my scrap stash and make quilts to donate to the local Women's Shelter. This one may be the first to go and I have no need of it but made it just because I wanted to play with the pattern. I nearly have it quilted.
The Banker stopped in yesterday and we had a lovely visit. She stayed far longer than she usually does. It was really nice. This pandemic has made us appreciate interactions with other human beings more than ever.
