I can't believe it is already Monday night and I haven't blogged in over a week. Last week was almost a blur! Work was rough and I was 5:30 and 6:00 getting in every night! By the time I got home and fixed / ate supper and read the paper... I was exhausted. Early bedtimes didn't seem to help... I have to remember I am still recovering from the surgery. I got ho,e Friday at about 3 pm and laid down across the bed fully clothed with even my shoes on and fell into a deep sleep. I slept for 2 hours! It was wonderful.

Friday night we met our friends at Steamroom Grill. That's one of our very favorite places to eat! The food was great and the conversation and company was delightful.

Saturday my buddy Becky and I went to Canton to the P Is for Primitive yarn shop and took a class in rug hooking! I am hooked! That was such a fun day and I really have enjoyed working on the piece. It is just 10 inches by 20 inches so much smaller that a rug, but it is a fun craft. I can't wait to enter it into the state fair! I met 3 other ladies who are "hookers" and we had a great day learning and visiting. When we got back to Brandon, Becky, and her husband and daughter met Mike and me at Newks for supper. We had a fun time visiting with them and telling them about our class.

Sunday afternoon Mike and I basted in my latest quilt. It is one I pieced about 3 years ago and its a real pretty scrappy block of the month quilt. I am ready to start quilting it but can't put down the rug hooking.. HaHa

Sunday about 5:30 I got a call from Scarlett. She was telling me all about her new bed and was asking me to come see it. Well, come to find out it's really Savanna's bed, but Scarlett is so proud of it. We went and picked up pizza and went to see the bed. The girls were just precious and we had such a fun visit with them. It's hard to believe they are getting so big! Oh yea... the bed is cute too! HaHa It's a tiny junior bed just right for Savanna with fairies on the canopy and the bedding. She was so sweet trying it out, but was a little confused about why she had to go to bed when Grammy and Grandad had just gotten there!

Tomorrow night is our New Stage play. It is "Gee's Bend" a play about the Quilters of Gee's Bend Alabama. It should be a great play and I am looking forward to it.
