Nadine wanted me to visit this week to work on the project we’ve been dinking around on since Sew Expo this year. Bill drove me over about 9:30 and I immediately showed Nadine my throw top for Trudy. She oohed and ahhhhed appropriately. Over a cup of tea we reviewed the supply list for the Bomber Jacket class we will take next month. Then we set to work on our respective projects. All I had left to do on mine was the binding so I did that while Nadine continued working on her project top. She did her black border and when she couldn’t find the green fabric she needed for the next border, she set that aside and worked on another sweatshirt jacket from a recent class. She got so far along and couldn’t find fabric she needed for that, but while looking she found the green for the first project and switched back to that. It’s comforting to find someone who is as unorganized as I am!
Somewhere in the midst of all this we ate a bowl of chili and finished with a Skinny Cow. I finished tacking my binding with a few minutes to spare before Bill was due to pick me up to three o’clock. He asked if there was anything I wanted to do and said I just wanted to go home. Then he told me this was the last nice day for awhile and wouldn’t I like to go over Allyn. The Skinny Cow has barely had time to settle on my hips and he’s talking more food. 
I told him we could go if he wanted but I needed to go home first.
I took care of a few things at home and we headed off about 3:30. We dawdled away about three hours on the deck of Lennard K’s while snacking on shrimp, steamer clams and a mini pizza. In between snacking I finished knitting Deanna’s hat and started another one with fuzzy stripes. Having forgotten all about that Skinny Cow, I said “yes” when Bill suggested a wild mountain blackberry milkshake from Bubba’s to slurp on while we walked out on the pier. We saw two seals out there and we think we saw a third one over in another area.
Now I can watch one of the two movies I have here before time to hit the sack. Tomorrow I’ll have to get back to work on the birthday throw. August 23rd is looming over my head.
I’ll check within my own heart first,
The obvious to see,
That faults I find in others
Are really faults in me. —D. De Haan
Therefore, as God's chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity. - Colossians 3:11-17
