I try to post each week along with LeeAnna at Not Afraid of Color. Some weeks are harder than others to find things to be grateful about. Several friends share on a weekly basis - be sure to check them out. I know you will find something to inspire your too! I always do!
It's Springtime in Wyoming! " We need the moisture", they say! While I know this is true, "Yuk!" I say!

I’m so ready for sunshine, warm air and blue skies! And kite flying!
I did some sewing and was thrilled that on Sunday, while ZOOMING with our son, I got a notice that Amazon delivered my Square Up ruler! It was on the front porch when I got off the call. So I was able to trim and finish up the blue blocks for the Full Stop sampler.
And my Table Scraps Challenge table runner will be ready to post on Friday!
Tuesday I was able to finally get my annual mammogram done. It always amazes me that they are booked so far out. I had it scheduled in December first! Then we decided to spend Christmas with our son “because”. They couldn’t get me in til February 23. My birthday! That worked I thought! Then Covid vaccines happened and my second shot was February 19th. Warnings on news programs, and websites said that having the vaccine could cause your lymph nodes to enlarge and that might give a false reading on the scan. So I rescheduled again. And again not for 2 months! But it’s done. Addendum: Wednesday morning the report from the radiologist and the doctor! No change, no recommendations! Hurray!
I’m hopeful! I feel justice was done in Minneapolis this week. I’m not jubilant. That doesn’t feel right!
I’m hopeful for a change in the way people of color are perceived and treated in our country!
I finished reading.
And started this one that I had put aside when my brother loaned me Educated!
And some photos from family made me smile.
And our very cute great nephew on the quilt I made for him!.
Join me over at Not Afraid of Color to what other good things are happening!
Stay Busy and Stay Happy and Healthy
What size square-up ruler did you get? Looking forward to your table scraps runner. I used to read Mary Higgins Clark all the time. I need to go back and re-read them. I crave “gentle reads” now that I’m older! Your great granddaughter and great nephew are cuties. Isn’t it a relief to get that mammogram behind you? Hope you get some spring weather soon.
ReplyDeleteYep we got a lot of snow too. Your blocks are gorgeous! What cuties. Glad you got your mammogram done. Great likes.
ReplyDeleteI too was very glad to hear the verdict in Minnesota but at the same time thought it awful that we to actually hear the words when we could see the guilty in the video. Northern Arkansas had snow too - glad it missed us. your birthday is the same as my daughters is. Glad you mamo came back good
ReplyDeleteSnow here as well.
ReplyDeleteJoy for the verdict.
Thumbs down for snow, but thumbs up for a clear mammogram! Your Full Stop blocks look great, and love the photo of the little guy on the baby quilt, too. What did you think of Educated? I just couldn't believe what those parents subjected their children toM
ReplyDeleteyes to amazon presents! lol
ReplyDeletegreat sewing, brave girl by herself, yea to the results!
Everyone got snow this week! Your quilting looks great. Educated was a good book.
ReplyDeleteAw Judy love those photos you ended your post with. So sweet. We have been enjoying deliveries as well..so fun and sometimes I’ve forgotten that I ordered it. Beautiful stitching. We got a little snow as well but gone now. I’m due for my mammogram but it has been postponed...know the feeling when you find out it is all good.
ReplyDeleteI listened to Tara Westover describe some of her experiences on a couple of podcasts. Good for her that she left that messed up life. Yes, the verdict felt like justice had been done. Happy you got the all clear on your mammogram! PS, that Snoopy mug is too cute!
ReplyDeleteI love the photos of GGD and GN on quilt!!!
