There were a lot of audios posted this week, and I really tried to get through all of them. I listened through exercise and breakfast, while writing a check and clearing e-mail, even putting out the recyclables, baking a loaf of bread and gluing the latest round of Sunday school projects. I Googled images of pea and bean plants to see what I planted in my garden. Turns out they are radishes. I like radishes, but they are not very productive at one per plant. Now the question is: what happened to the peas I planted? I took a few minutes to lay in the sun. Yesterday I made myself a short list of things to do and accomplished all but one. I cut another leg for my extension table because it was rocking. On my way to the table saw, I noticed a rather large puddle under the pingpong table. It extended over to where the birds nest in the ceiling. Sounds like the hall bathroom. I called Bob 'cause I knew it would make his day. He'll be over in a few days. I wonder if it is the shower or the toilet. Bob asked me to mark the puddle in case it dries up. So I looked through my craft boxes for some sidewalk chalk. All I found was regular chalk, but it was enough. When putting it back, I had to lift my box of fabrics from Japan. I went through it and found some that didn't belong, so I took those out to make more room, but somehow it didn't. I washed all the fabrics I took out and ironed them dry. While they were washing, I hand-basted the quilt top that I sandwiched yesterday. I carried it over to the machine. With the extension table, non-stick surface, proper thread color and sewing foot, I was all ready to free-motion quilt. No excuses. But I could not think of a design to put on it. And even if I did, I would be afraid of messing it up since I have no experience in this area. Chris came home and fixed his supper. I picked greens from my garden and added some from the fridge to make a large salad. I also ate some pickled brussel sprouts. Pickling them seemed like a good idea at the time. Must be an acquired taste. Maybe I should have thrown them in with the kimchi. I squeezed in another audio, and then we watched episodes of MASH. The last one had Mariette Hartley in it and I can't remember what else I saw her in. Chris thinks I might have her confused with Marilu Henner, which is possible.
