Me vs the Quilt Machine

We got up this morning both feeling a lot better. Our walk was good and Jazzy behaved (she was on the leash part of the walk).

When we got back from our walk, I started trying to load one of my Aunt Margaret's quilts onto the new quilting machine. I am sure that all the problems I encountered were of my own doing because Aunt Margaret is a meticulous quilter. I finally got some actual quilting done about 1pm this afternoon. Sure am glad she said she didn't care what I did to these quilts--I have a few square circles on this first one!

Lonnie and LoraLee came for dinner tonight. LoraLee is recovering from rotator cuff surgery and Lonnie has an appointment with a surgeon tomorrow morning to discuss back surgery. Much of our conversation tonight centered on weight loss and how hard it is. Lonnie would like to lose weight and perhaps avoid back surgery but has a hard time doing so. Laci, our granddaughter in the Air Force stationed in San Antonio was at a restaurant last night and left her wallet on the table and of course someone helped themselves and proceeded to have a really good time last night with her debit card. I thought I had educated that child about being in the big city but I guess it didn't sink in!

It was an absolutely beautiful fall day in Montana.
