Peebles Island

 We had a trip planned to go to Peebles that we had to put off a week not realizing that the next Sunday Popster had a golf tournament.  It was a beautiful day so Jess, Tyler & I went anyway.  Mistake # 2 came when we got into the village of Waterford we noticed they were holding a 5K race. We drove down the street towards the bridge & parking area & found it was closed for the race.  We found a parking spot on the street & walked down.  Mistake # 3.....the race was just starting & they were running across the bridge & around part of the island
 Mistake # 4 we decided to walk across the road part of the bridge to stay out of their way
 That was a great idea until we got to the part that was a steel grid that the dogs couldn't walk on....h*ll we could hardly walk on it!  Jess said "no biggie I'll just carry Molly"....all 55lbs of her!  Crazy girl!!




 It was a perfect day for pics as the sky kept changing
 See the big fat fish?



 Our customary photo shoot on the picnic table

 We've had no rain this year so the ducks are practically walking on the rocks

Today we have a riddle???

 What do you get when you cross a pile of scraps, a sewing machine, a woman possessed, & a husband on a week long golf trip?  The following.........  This is a tablecloth for my kitchen table....forgot to take the finished pic  Cover for my sewing machine...very proud of this as I quilted the whole thing.  This is the back....got tired of doing squares!  Matching cover for my serger.  I meant to post these a while ago & must have forgot.  I have done a couple other projects since then which I will get around to posting soon.  Had computer problems so I have some catching up to do Love

Sewing, weaving & emptying the waterbed

 Monday morning began bright & early as we needed to finish emptying our bedroom.  Mark was dropping LiLi off before 8:00am as she does not have school this week.  We needed to drain the waterbed before we could take it apart.  As usual we were having no luck getting the water to siphon out & even resorted to having LiLi (all 35lbs of her) sitting on it with us!!  It probably took over an hour & who knows how many tries before it worked.  Got the mattress out & discovered the decking was falling apart.....good thing we decided to do this project,,,,I was able to find a local place so we can just replace it & to be safe I also got a new safety liner & heater.  I don't want to be doing this again for a while!  While Popster worked on replacing the baseboard & window trim in those two rooms LiLi & I started working on this doll kit she had gotten for her birthday.  All the pieces needed to be sewn togeth...

C of O ....Sun Room...Day Twenty Three-Twenty Five

This came in the mail today which made me realize I never posted the last couple days updates.  They really all rolled into one as Jim ended up leaving at noon on Weds...it started to snow & didn't work at all on Thurs.  Friday he finished things up by lunch time but had to spend the afternoon emptying my garage of all his tools.  We had our inspection on Monday which wasn't a problem.  It has been so sunny this week so far so it is so nice to sit in there & enjoy the view!  Yes Molly hangs out in her a lot.....I have nose prints to prove she looks out of all the windows!
