Rain, Rain

It started raining in the night and I knew this because I was awake a lot—nightmares, terrible ones!  And, it has rained off and on all day today.  Made for a very muddy walk morning and afternoon!

Mom and I spent the day sewing and quilting.  She almost finished a quick little quilt from a pattern by All Washed Up.  When its finished tomorrow, I will post a photo. 

I am almost finished with that Thimbleberry’s quilt Marti!  One more row and then the bottom border and I will be finished, YEA!  It looks really great.

Why is it so hard to get good customer service any more???  Remember about a month ago I had my Pfaff sewing machine (my 10 year old, very expensive Pfaff sewing machine) in the shop—it had just stopped sewing in the midst of making a quilt.  The repair shop kept the machine for over 3 weeks and today as Mom was sewing the machine did exactly the same thing—made a noise and froze.  GRRRRR—now it has to go all the way back to the repair shop in Billings!  Thank goodness for simple little Singer Featherweight machines—Mom is using that machine to finish the quilt. 

Michael worked out in the shop on Steve’s project all day and Chuck read and played on the computer.  That’s about it for our day.

To answer some questions from readers:  No, we are not in Judith Gap—but our internet carrier shows up as Judith Gap, MT when we log onto blogs—don’t ask us why???

No, Karen—Mom and Chuck are going over to Yellowstone Park on Wednesday in their motor home.  They are both going to work in the Park for the summer—Mom is an auditor (counts the money) and Chuck works in one of the stores.  We will get to see them occasionally on their days off.
