Guess Who's Coming to Dinner!

We are getting very excited about the Kindelans coming to town on Sunday!  (Are you packed yet?)  Hmmm, the question is . . . will Kathy and I still be playing scrabble while we are in the same room?  Maybe we'll be talking too fast for that?  The weather is meant to be nice on Monday at least, then it appears we might have a bit of rain.  I had originally ordered lovely, sunny weather so we will see if I need to get my money back!

In honor of the occasion, I am cleaning up my sewing supplies, stash, obsession in the office.  I sure do love buying pretty fabric.  I pulled out the Christmas placemats that Barbara (my friend since 3rd grade) and I made two years ago and don't hate them as much as I thought I did.  I might even finish quilting them now.  I seem to lean toward Christmas projects and florals. 

I had my third physical therapy tonight after work and that gal worked me over something fierce.  Ouch! The best part is afterwards I get a warm, moist towel wrapped around my neck, the lights go off, a big wedge is placed under my knees and I am oh so comfy for ten minutes until the timer goes off.  She is teaching me that I have muscles in my back/shoulders that need to be worked to relieve the pain in my neck.  (No, that isn't referring to Dan for those of you who went there immediately! smile)

I talked to mom tonight and think she sounds a bit perkier.  She still has a ways to go though for sure.  Sue started a fire in the toaster oven and I appreciate the fact that she is trying to warm TX up one toaster oven at a time.  Speaking of toasters, ours gave up the ghost this morning.  We will be out buying a new one tomorrow for sure.  Ashley has me hooked on frozen blueberry waffles.  And, we wonder why I am not losing weight!  Ha, can't blame that one on Ash.  But, truly, it is sort of like eating a blueberry muffin; well, the taste is anyway.
