All righty then third times a charm
I hope by the time I am through with this the funny will come out. The first time the whole blasted journal page ran away. Don't know where it went. I didn't ask. It didn't tell. I was typin' away and looked up at some dumb noise the computer made and my journal page was gone, Daily strength had deserted me. Don't know what key I accidentally hit just know I was typing nothing on my desk top. Humm maybe not such a bad idea. The second time I deserted me. Wasn't sure I wanted to do all that typing over again. But my motto for the day is DO NOT let it get to you. It is really quite early in the day. Have only been up for about 4 hours (also very strange for me my day usually starts much earlier)
No coffee for me today. Not a good start to the day. Blood test this morning. (tried to study for it but you know how that goes).
So into the sewing room for me. Stayed out of the sewing room and moved onto the computer when I quit smoking but have since managed to get back in there. Gonna work on my quilt. It should be pretty when I get finished (if I get finished). I am calling it "The Quilt I Love to Hate" but maybe that should be "The New Quilt I Love to Hate" or possibly "Another Quilt I Love to Hate". Like the first "Quilt I Love to Hate" the colors are fantastic. The first was butterflies and I loved the fabric, however, the pattern messed me up. So designed my own way to put the blocks together. I really did love The Quilt I Love to Hate. It turned out great and I donated to a fuction to raise them some money. But this one IIII DDDDOOOONNNNN"TTTTT KKKKNNNOOOW!!!! The colors are purples and blues and golds. The center is giant pansies in those colors. I have cut the squares as perfect as I can,(Strike 1) My instructor said I had to put all my squares in a brown bag and pull two out and sew them together. BUt , but, but I might get two blue or two purple or or or. O.K. I did that. Didn't wannna but I did. I have my first seams as straight as I know how. (Strike 2) But do you think they will line up together. Not in this life time. Have fought with them for 2 days. (Strike 3) This quilt is scrappy. I don't like scrappy, I don't do scrappy. If you take the "s" off of scrappy what do you get? Hummmmmmmmmm. Four strikes and my instructor gets to finish the quilt. Oh, I know it's three strikes and your out but one of those strikes seems to be operator error. So I'll give her an extra.
All righty then, into the bath, get dressed and out the............Phone rang. Oh, Cool the grandbabies are doing a square dance at school. Does Grandma have bandannas (well, duh) , if she doesn't ((She does)) she soon will have. Of course they can use them. LIME GREEN? UH NO!!! I gots the blue ones, I gots de yellow ones, I gots the orange ones and the pink and the red. Lime Green? If Suzy Q will choose another color she can wear my cowgirl hat. Fair enough? Ok another disaster deverted. (Boy, I'm good.) Two hats? Noah needs one too. Wish I had of known sooner. We just locked 16 up in the AA shed. Wait what is this I see. This is not a basket. It's a cowboy hat. They gave it to Grandpa for the work he did on Roundup. And yet another catastropy shot to pieces. I'm on roll!!!!!
Now out the door, book in hand (have to have my book otherwise I sit in lab for hours. Take book no time to read.). Got the keys What......... phone again. Set down book, set down keys. Answer phone. Short conversation. Where are my keys and my book? Oh come on, Elsie you just had em. Got them..... out the door. Quick. Wind is blowing to beat the band. So much for brushing my hair. Oh well!
Made it. I am at the lab. My lucky day only one person a head of me. This can't be right. Ok, I knew it was too good to be true. No, paper work.. Again.... Ok, I will drive to the Dr. office and find out what is going on. The front office person says she has no idea what I am talking about. Pardon me, I personally spoke with you on monday. After I went to the lab like Dr. Joe told me to do on Sunday. And he was suppose to call the request into the lab then. You promised that if I went first thing WED. morning( Hello... it's wed morning) the paper work would be there. OH Yeah, now you remember. Dr Joe can fill those papers out.....WHEN? They said no eating... I am hypogycemic..... No I can not wait until after noon to eat. Tell ya what. I is doing fine. Feets is better. Gots me an appointment on monday with a foot dr. Will just pretend we are doing the lab test and not.
Go to Walmart. My britches don't fit. What's up with that. OHHHHH I member, I quit smoking. Cause Dennis has emphysema and the DR said smoking would give me a heart attack And now my body processes food different. Wait. Who said it could do that. Not me. No way! So I talk to him about my weight. Gotta loose that weight it'll give you a heart attack. Hummm sounds like a loose, loose situation here. All I can eat is meat and green leafy stuff. Can't have anything with colesrtrol.......... Humm.......... so that leaves green leafy things. Excuthe me. Do I look like a wabbit to you? O.k. back to walmart. I bought three top and a pair of Jeans. The tops were made by Omar the Tent maker. But they are really cute.
Went to the Grocery store. Managed to keep the cashier laughing for like 5 minutes. So got home decided I absolutely decided that I was not going to let any of this get me down.
