CAME BACK WITH A SWEET QUILT

Some serious handiwork.  
Lots of stitching went into this sweet quilt.

DRIVING ACROSS THE KANSAS PRAIRIE took my breath away with its beauty.  Still have lush green pastures sprawling across gentle hills with gorgeous blue skies and fluffy white clouds shadowed with gray.  We ventured out on this Friday taking advantage of the cooler weather.  Needed a break from working on the COTTAGE.  

Hubby put in 7 hours in the heat working on the shed door as I painted primer on the oversized kitchen cabinet.  I'm not finished, but hope to be by Monday.

Reviewing where we went.  
Bank deposit.
Wood working shop.
Lunch at Sugar Creek.  Rachel Salad.
Macadamia Nut flavored Almond Milk Steamer at MJs.
Office Max for sheet protectors so I can sleeve a multitude of papers. Large binder for obituaries print outs.
God's Storehouse.  Bought a twin size quilt!  Bright mustard colored border.  Cheery.  In pretty good shape for $20.  

BONUS: Free cabbage, sweet potatoes and green apples were picked up.
Fuel for the car.  Gas prices have come down.
Natural Grocers.  Free organic candy bar and shopping bag for an Anniversary Celebration.  Needed Co-Q-10.
JoAnn's Fabric for brown ribbon.  50% off.  Now I will make ribbon hoops to hang the Autumn wreaths on the front doors.
Menards for water and trim.
Went to Long John Silver's for supper, but the dining room was closed so we tried a New Mexican Restaurant.

Drove HOME with the tireds coming on.  I'm fading.  Unloaded spoils.  Rested and worked on Book of Remembrance of Loved ones and friends.

I did absolutely horrible on my calorie count today.  I ate black licorice which is loaded with calories.  This put me over the top on calories.  IF...and I say if, I had only ate one piece it wouldn't be so bad, BUT I ate I think 6 pieces.  That's not the way to lose weight.  Tomorrow I will have to eat way less like two hard boiled eggs, V8, salad for lunch, soup for supper, no snacks.  Lord, Help me.

Almost Saturday,
