The Sashing is done!
It was 8:30 or so when I finally got out of bed. I read some e-mail, exercised, ate breakfast and read another chapter book. This one was one of the Boxcar Children series. In order to send out my new e-mail address, I went through my address book and clicked on each of the people I wanted to send it to. I had to do that three times before Yahoo allowed it. But then it would not send the message because there were too many recipients. How is it that a hacker can send spam to everyone in my address book but I cannot send them all a change-of-address? Well, it ought to come from the g-mail account anyway, right? But after I copied it all over to G-Mail, it still wouldn't work. So frustrating! Turning my attention away, I watered my seedlings and other plants. I picked some of the swiss chard and collard greens. I juiced up some carrots, and used the juice to blend up the greens. I poured the result in a popsicle maker. It was only enough for one. I had carrots left, but needed greens. So I picked a bunch of edible weeds from the lawn. I blended that up with more carrot juice and made enough to fill the second popsicle maker. Then I spent more time than I wanted to cleaning up carrot bits and juice. I froze the carrot pulp for a future carrot cake. I laid out in the sun after lunch. Then I checked e-mail again before going out to find yard work. I decided to pull out the black-eyed susans since they looked so blighted. After awhile, I noticed that my finger was abraided. So I went in to wash my hands. I decided to take a shower, too. Then I finished the sashings on the stack and whack quilt, taking pics along the way. Chris came home from work and started his Friday night game with the voices. I ate supper and checked e-mail. It occurred to me that I have an army e-mail account that I never use. I only check it once every 5 months when the password expires. I tried copying my change-of-address message over to it, and Bingo! It had no trouble with the number of recipients. Sent it out slick as spit. I remembered Deb asking for a block from a drawing. I called it up on my computer and then copied it in fabric. Truthfully I probably needed a special ruler to get all the edges in perfect relationship. Still, it came out ok. But by then it was 11pm and time for bed.
