I am not enjoying my new embroidery machine lately. I have to many projects! Once people find out you have one, everyone has something that needs to be embroidered. I volunteered to do the embroidery for Glenn's (Kentridge) play "Happy Days". It is based on the TV show and written by Gary Marshall. I am not happy with the quality of some of what I'm producing. I have to "babysit" the machine while it works.
Just finished! I spent 4.5 hours just today on it.
Finished up Jamie C quilt yesterday. Still have to finish wrapping it though. Karma's is done except the hand border. I'll start that tomorrow. Learned of another wedding quilt I want to do, not until June though.
Rachel is in her school play. Have to sew her a 50's "mother" dress this next week.
I'm on hold for a conference call with my 2 sisters. Neither are calling in guess.
I'm going to go have my nails done.

Confessions for not blogging
It's been a month since my last blog entry. What can I say my life is boring. My day to day would not be interesting to anybody but me. Here it is
- I sleep for 10 hours or so. Don't give me a hard time or wish you could. It is medically necessary.
- I help get my kids off to school, ie make a lunch and sometimes remind them of things they should do before they leave (like dishes or brush their teeth)
- I read 2 chapters in the Book of Mormon. Currently I'm in Alma with the people of Ammon. I love Alma the younger! This is good stuff!
- I am trying to establish a habit of working out on the Wii Zumba, just haven't got it yet.
- Shower or stay in PJ's.
- Then I sew and sew and sew. It's feeling like job these days. I am extremely happy with the quilting job I finished yesterday. I can't stop looking at the back side of this quilt! Even my family thought it looked good, or at least they said so. They think I'm hard on myself, so even if they weren't impressed they wouldn't tell me. Gotta love'em.
- When the kids get home from school I give them some face time, but they don't tell me enough. We eat a snack together.
- 4:00 I get the 2 younger ones to practice instruments (when I remember)
- Then we go our separate ways or I'm driving and picking up kids etc.
- 6:00 dinner, we sometimes remember to read Doctrine and Covenants as a family, we are up to section 98 I think.
- Dale and I connect if we are not running somewhere.
- Bed my 8:30'ish
