Car Update

Today I went to lunch with a couple of friends. When I returned home, the tow truck was at the house loading our car. :( So sad!!! It reminded me of the time our little white Mystique was totaled in Twin Falls. Some friends towed it home for us. When I cleaned the car out it wasn't such a big deal. However, when the tow company came to get it and haul it off, I cried. I loved that car! I love this one too! I'm wondering if I should just turn my keys in and quit driving!

SERIOUSLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I cannot believe it!! I was coming home tonight from picking up our items that we entered in the local art council's show at the high school. I was minding my own business, driving down hwy. 30 between Boise and Webster streets when 3 deer came running across in front of me. I missed the first two, but not the 3rd. My poor little PT Cruiser! This is the second time in 5 weeks that I have hit a deer. We got the car back from the body shop last Thursday. The damage from the Feb 19th hitting of the deer was nothing compared to this. Car not drivable other than to get it home!!! I am so stinkin' frustrated!! What on earth were those deer doing in the middle of town? Don't they know they don't belong there? I guess not! The lady that saw what happened told me there had been 20 deer in her backyard and those 3 were the last of the 20 to cross the highway. Needless to say, we are back to one vehicle for awhile! I want to just sit down and CRY!!!

Oh My Word!!!

I've been toying with the idea of opening a home based quilting business. I can't believe all the technical rules and regulations there are! WHY? I just want to quilt! I have been given tons of reading to do and I don't want to do it. I told Eugene he should do the reading and then tell me what I should do. He didn't think that was a very good idea! :( All the reading and technicalities is enough to discourage the most ambitious person, not to mention discourage me!

Relay For Life Survivor Quilts

Last year at the Relay for Life, each cancer survivor that attended was asked to leave their handprint on a quilt block, sign their name and how long they have been a survivor. I took the blocks home and made three quilts. These quilts will be auctioned off at the Relay in July to raise money for the fight against cancer.
Here are the quilts.
