Buzzy Weekend–A Lot To Do

 

I seem to have so much to do and little time to work on anything.  I envy all you stay at home retired quilters.  You have time on your hands, I just come home and want to hit the bed I am so tired, but I will not let that stop me for following your blogs (at work) and joining a few blog Hops (really need to slow down on that too).  I will be featured in the Great British Blog Hop.  I really can not think of what I will be featuring yet, put I know I will come up with something my August 1.  OH MY!!! that is day after tomorrow and I am already ready to hit the bed.  I will think of something they don’t call me the Last Minute Quilter for nothing.  OH Hell I’m the Slow Quilter right?  What every I will have something to show.  Please click on the side bar and it will take you to the link of participants.great british blog hop

 

 

 

 

My weekend starts on Friday when I go bowling.  I have not been in the last 3 or 4 Fridays, as I wrote in a previous post, on of those bad thunder storms caved in the roof of the bowling alley we bowled at and had to find another place.  It only took them a week to find one, put then I was packing to go on my trip, so this Friday was my first day back at it, did not bowl to good (new alley and all) yea, right, I just was have a bad day.  But it was a great night, because they had Bull Riding in the bowling alley.  No I did not get on the bull, Tom would have made a seen, if I broke my neck.  But here are few photos of those who did.

  After the meeting, I stopped by the house to drop of my things and run over to my girl friends mother’s house, were a full blown block party was going on for the support of CANCER.  The do this block party every year and it was the first time I went.  I did not stay long, could not take pictures since it went dead on my at the work shop.  When I left there I went home and fell in the bed, and you know that Sunday is the Lords day for me, I am glad I was able to stay up through the sermon John 3:16.

I also received my Black & White Quilt that I sent out to have quilted, put I will have to show you the pictures tomorrow.  I am going to bed and it is only 7:24 pm.

So I will blog with you later

Blog Hop Buttons: Do You Keep Them or Delete Them?

O.K.  I have to make this quick since I am blogging from work.  I was just wondering what is the procedure for old Blog Hop buttons?  If the Blog Hop is over with do you keep it on your side bar, or do you delete them to make room for other Blog Hop buttons, or do you move recent button on top and old on the bottom.  This is a burning question I must know.  So please get back to me on this.

Now I must introduce you to two Blog Hops that I have on my side bar for you to click and join if you have not already.  And I will get more into the buttons once I am home.



Happy Quilting

Only in This Stupid World...do drugstores make the sick walk all the way to the back of the store to get their prescriptions while healthy people can buy cigarettes at the front.

Only in This Stupid World...do people order double cheeseburgers, large fries, and a diet coke.

Only in This Stupid World...do banks leave vault doors open and then chain the pens to the counters.

Only in This Stupid World...do we leave cars worth thousands of dollars in the driveway and put our useless junk in the garage.

Only in This Stupid World...do we buy hot dogs in packages of ten and buns in packages of eight.

Only in This Stupid World...do they have drive-up ATM machines with braille lettering
