Back from a lovely day in the sun in Auckland. We took our daughter (her birthday tomorrow) and her boyfriend to Devonport for lunch - and no I did NOT venture in to Cushla's Quilt shop. We went up to North Head and also sat along the waterfront watching people out enjoying the day.

Evening all, home safe and sound, has a great week end and the Dude managed to get friends new computer all set up, so she is all happy now. Los of traffic on the road, with a few idiots who always have to take risks and place others in danger. Have a few new quilting ideas, otherwise not much was done except talk and exchange magazines and ideas.

Yes shell...it was well and truly bedtime! I remember it wasn't that long ago that you were commenting about the late nights some of us had...welcome to the club!
Breakfast is ready and waiting. It has been raining all night and the skies are leaden again today. Maybe we might get some more much needed moisture. There has been a total fire ban for a while now and everything is crispy brown. Sil has been irrigating so that there is something for the animals to eat.
Housework is first on the agenda for me today. Have a great one yourselves.

well i woke up at 5 this morning with mega tooth ache, was not pleasant, took some panadol went back to bed did not get back to sleep !! Its ok now but i will have to go to the dentist me thinks and have it looked at the thing is i hate hate hate the dentist, im petrified already and i havent even rung yet..they gonna have to knock me out if i have to have fillings done.
I had all my 4 wisdom teeth out a few years ago but i went on waiting list and had done at the hosp.
Whats for tea ?? too hot to cook, its blowing like hell here at the moment.

shell156 - 2013-01-07 17:40:00
39083

Ooh shell...toothache is horrid. Just go to the dentist. They are used to nervous people and I'm sure they would look after you well. They are no friend of mine either...but I'm always surprised at just how short the time in there is, and how painless too. Take L with you to hold your hand...unless of course he is afraid too.
I've had ham and salad for tea and it was yummity yum. Also did quite a bit of sewing today so am happy.

Thank you for breakfast...just the cold one thanks Dilli. I have another batch of apricot chutney on the stove...that's four lots so far. It's yummity yum...and I think the grandboys like it too. Youngest one came over with an empty jar yesterday asking if I had any more of 'this stuff please'. Muttley was amazed that they had got through a jar in a day...I think he has forgotten just how much boys eat!
More sewing for me laterer...I am enjoying my time in the shed. What are you all getting up tp? Going to the dentist shell? Get it over and done with as early as you can then you won't fret about it for too long.

How on earth did you do that grizz? I bet it made you a bit grizzly at the time!!
I got one of the packages of fabric today...and it is wonderful. I am going to look at the shop for our stitching group tonight because I want a piece of turquoise to do a baby quilt in. Oops...MORE fabric. Oh well...you can never have too much eh?

jumbobon - 2013-01-08 12:41:00
39098

Ooooh Grizz, that sounds painful. Good to know it hasn't stopped the sewing!

I have now sandwiched my "bookshelf" together and am sewing inside each and every "book". It looks as good as I had imagined. Slow work tying off the threads and threading them into the sandwich though. Any hints for making that easier . . . . all you machine quilters? I am sewing inside each 'book' individually because I like the look of not having the stitches travelling over to the next book.
