Our Monday meeting

I got up around 7:15. Got on the computer until my alarm went off at 7:30. I fixed and ate my breakfast, took a shower, grabbed a jar of bean salad for lunch, and headed out. When I got to the SPC, it was unbearably warm. Finally we had a warm day (50's), so opening the windows was not as effective as I hoped. Anyway, I started setting up, and others came to help. We had show-and-tell for what seemed like an extraordinarily long time because people kept coming in late and we'd show it off again. But finally we got down to work. Several ladies worked on a QOV to be quilted tomorrow. The rest worked on baby quilts, and we actually made good progress. I mostly cut strips 'cause it seems like we are running low on kits. But I don't know how many we finished. At least 4. Kim reported that we sent off 5 QOV's to Afganistan. Yea!! After the rest of the ladies packed up and left, I stayed for a bit to sit and rest, and to play the piano. I miss my piano, and the chance to be alone to play it. Yes, I have a keyboard here in the apt, but I feel like I am bothering the neighbors. They have a piano and I don't want to hear it.
Chris came home while I was working on one of Julia's quilts. I had just turned it right side out, and was stitching it shut. We were alone in the apt and I made a suggestion, but my bright orange skin was apparently a turn-off. The old niacin flush. Michele came home, and then we ate supper while watching CSI episodes. I also was able to finish the tying of the quilt, and do some more crochet on my rug.
