Last night I figured out how to set my
alarm for 6:30.  I could not figure out how to set it only for today.
 I woke up in the middle of the night and had a little trouble going
back to sleep.  When I woke up the second time, I could not tell if
it was still night, or just beginning day.  The microwave declared it
to be 6:18.  I got up and took a shower.  My alarm rang while I was
getting dressed.  I went outside to see how much rainwater I had
collected.  I brought it in and filtered it, then put it through the
coffee pot, and then into the fridge.  I checked e-mail, then packed
my breakfast and lunch into a tote and headed out, a little after 7. 
My phone rang on the way.  It was Beverly.  I could not find the
phone fast enough to answer it.  But she was waiting when I got to
the church.  There were about 10 ladies waiting.  One of them was way
too perky for the hour.   At 7:30 we got into 3 cars and headed up 72
to a McDonalds.  The other ladies ordered food, but I ate my prepared
breakfast and took my supplements.  Then we drove for some time, and
ended up at an out-of-the-way place called Moore's.  It had two big
rooms of fabric and one of consignments.  I loaded up and counter,
finding fabric as fast as the lady could cut it.  Since there were so
many of us, it took a while to get out of there.  We drove for a long
time, and pulled into an Arby's for lunch.  Again, I ate my own food.
 Then we went to a place called Hammer's.  It was a department store
with a good size fabric department.  I loaded up there, too.  The
clerk was telling me about a potato chip quilt that she had made.  It
was called that because it was so simple you can't make just one. 
She drew the pattern on a piece of paper for me.  Then Beverly
started a rumor that I would have one done by next Tuesday.  Ha, Ha. 
From there we headed back.  But first we stopped at an Amish food
store.  There was very little I could eat there.  Their 'home-made'
applebutter had red dye #40 in it.  Then our driver wanted to take a
little side tour of where her father's farm used to be.  THEN, we
headed back to Huntsville.  When we got to the church, I loaded my
fabric in the car and came home, really tired.  I laid down for a
bit, then got up to eat and read e-mail.  I played an audio while I
digested and cleaned up a little.  I got a package from MaryAnn with
pretty kitty-cat fabric.  I skyped Kurt because skype said he was on,
but it lied.  Still, he skyped me back and talked for 3 hours.  He
wants to buy a used car and I told him he could have mine WHEN I'm
done with it.  I had to sign off then because it was time for bed.
