Work...
Richard finished painting the living room ceiling, his office ceiling and our bedroom ceiling. The only ceilings left are the laundry room and the dining room. I spent most of yesterday writing. In between web-surfing, playing with fabric and cleaning up my office/sewing room. I threw out 2 bags of trash that had accumulated - old magazines, old bills and paper scraps of numbers, dates and whatnot type notes I write to myself all the time. I pulled out my nephew Billy's quilt top and will decide what to do with it over the next few days. Katie's quilt is currently at the long-arm quilter's. Since we are going up to visit them in June, I thought it'd be a good idea to have their quilts done. I hung SECOND STAR TO THE LEFT, STRAIGHT ON TILL MORNING in my office today. Everyone noticed, of course. I had to explain the stars, the quilt, the story. They thought it was great. Anyway, must get back to writing. I have a June 1 deadline for this book! ACK!
