I have fought my way in

I am back in just before bed. My daughter called last night. After some offers and counter offers, they have a house. She says she will believe it when they have the keys. Now that the house is sold, the sellers are putting in a new septic system, then it will be move in ready. I have a new nightly routine. There is a craft project I have been following along for six weeks now, but had not started my version of it. It is a sew along of twelve quilt blocks. Last night I started sorting out my fabrics for it. I still have not sewn any of the blocks. I trimmed down some scraps for some squares. I have, but have never used, an electric strip cutter that should come in handy for some of this. I hope to read the instructions and use it tomorrow. This is my treat to myself, to get some sewing done and be creative. Hubby is in bed and I should be. So "goodnight, sleep tight".

Yes, she was feeling badly that she just was not enthusiastic about any of them. That changed some with this house.

I am excited for them. Son in law works hard and does a lot to keep things up. Daughter has been wanting more outdoor space, and so has he.

I'm very happy for your daughter! Your sewing project sounds good. I'm going to have to get busy doing some things for a little fundage (like this). My side sources of "extra money" (like that's really a thing) have almost dried up. Weather here has been sunny in morning, cloudy in the afternoon. Sometimes the clouds turn into thunder storms, sometimes not. Usually not forecast correctly. I got a couple new baby shrubs to plant for my back garden area, probably won't do that till the weekend. Have fun with your sewing!

I need more than "extra" until school starts back up. There is always something to do in the yard. I love it.
