It's here!!

 It came! Merry Christmas to me! Next Monday the folks will come to set it up. I should be having some lessons after that. Then, I'll be off to the races.

My supervisor was busy but stayed quiet during the un-loading operation.

Mr Wazoo used his hand truck and made several trips for all the boxes.
The freight driver unloaded at the bottom of the driveway and left.
Mr W took his pick-up down and got the boxes in the back, then drove to the top and unloaded them.
What a good guy!

The next morning, I was up with the sun, and off with Gail to Franklin, NC to pick up her quilts from the quilter. It was a fun, quick trip with one stop in Hayesville, NC at the fabric shop to get backing for my last two Christmas quilts. Some  bolts of  Christmas fabric were in the sale room, and I scored some great buys!

After the trip, I relaxed and took a nap like I am supposed to do, with my faithful companion for company.
I'm doing everything I am supposed to to recover from my surgery.😉

This morning, I sewed the Christmas quilt blocks together and made backs for the last two quilts.

A surprise package arrived while I was sewing, and this beautiful art glass heart was inside with a note from my friend in Florida. It is just perfect! My favorite color (lime green) and a pretty addition to my family photo table. It made my day. Thank you Georgia!

While I was off getting my annual mammogram, Mr Wazoo put up the Christmas tree! Let the decorating fun begin!

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

A little block sewing

 I started late today after taking it easy this morning and enjoying the TV morning shows. I sewed the blocks for the Christmas quilt, and have them sorted and staged on the design wall. I'll sew the top together tomorrow.

My friend thinks the blocks look like wrapped gifts! I'll go with that.

I have a doctor's appointment tomorrow to talk about my surgery, my neuropathy and the medicine I'm taking. I hope to find out more about how long I'll be off my game. My machine might come this week and I am anxious to get to know it. That's all for now! See you later.
