Early morning ramblings.....

It's getting way to late to still be up.... I do have to go to work today, but I have a closing shift, so that is a plus for me! I need at least eight hours of sleep, and often nine or ten is even better!

This past weekend my buddy and I sewed up a storm! Got my black and white blocks done for the About. Forum swap, now I need to label and get them to the Post Office. Finished the last row of my blue and yellow log cabin quilt.... haven't unearthed the rest of the top yet, but it's buried somewhere in the never ending pile of UFO's. Made a quilting date for the 18th of January to get a blue star quilt quilted on the longarm.

Started to fill my external hard-drive (that I got for Christmas) with all my digital scrapbook kits.... I think I might have to get another volume to put all my actual pictures on.... Like everything else I get into; I've just got tooooooo much stuff.

Work, slow to say the least. Bright spot is that by the weekend I'll have my first delivery of pansy and primrose for 2009!!!!! It is very windy, and lot's of rain. I'm talking drenching rain, not the mist, drizzle that the Puget Sound usually gets.... but downpours that are so noisy on the roof to the outside nursery area you can hardly hear the person next to you talk. There's so much water that the concrete floor is wicking water to the surface, and rain is running inside from the large doors that open to the front sidewalk area (think very large garage doors.) After spending my shift in that environment I feel like I've been in the water all day. I'm thankful that it has warmed up to the high 40's, I've had it with snow and ice and cold here on the west side of the Cascades.

Okay, enough for now. Hey, I also figured out how to add a playlist to my blog! LOL, that purple color has got to go..... not working for me in my green space here.

Found a Gem!

I just found the funniest video on You Tube, Uncle Jay explains 2008, it's just the year in one silly nutshell! Check it out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TWiXy55OHyY
