Can you believe that the middle of February was yesterday and now we are on the downhill slide of this month? Time continues to fly! I guess staying busy is one way to keep time moving quickly. I had school with Joseph, Isaac, Elijah, Esther, Joy, and Abigail this morning. Abigail completed another zippered pouch. She started one last week when I was at the church working in the library. She had a problem when she couldn't make the fusible batting fuse so she compromised and found another way...more quilting to keep the pieces together. Today she finished that pouch. And, I attempted to help her with the fusible batting...and though I bought it as fusible and have the paper instructions on how to make it fuse...and the receipt says that it is fusible. I agree with Abigail...IT ISN'T fusible! While I was having school this morning, Woody did his Wednesday Krogering with a stop at Aldis. I did manage to put away some of the groceries. After his shopping trip, Woody made some really good cookies, Spicy Molasses Pumpkin cookies. As soon as I finished lunch with a cookie for dessert, I headed towards the church with a quick stop at the public library. When I tried to check out an e-book last night it said that my card needed validating. So I stopped and got it validated...they just have to check to see if your address and phone number are the same as last year. I did find out that I can validate my card over the phone. I was glad to learn that as I got to wondering what I would have done if I hadn't been able to check out e-books while I was "chair-bound" during my gout attacks and couldn't have gotten to the library. I read lots of e-books during January. At least I learned that my presence isn't required at the library to get my card working again. After getting that task completed, I headed to the church library to work for a couple of hours. Donna, Fran and I got a lot done today. I came home pretty tired and headed straight to my chair and the heating pad...my back wasn't happy. I know that it didn't take very long before my eyes closed and I was dozing. Before going to sleep I did manage to get the e-book I had been reading checked out again. I woke up with Isaac in the room! He wanted to spend some time over here before his supper. He decided to play with Osmo Pizza Co. again. Woody and I have had supper and are settling in for another quiet evening. I have no energy...guess that I am still "recovering." It doesn't take very much for me to get worn out and tonight I have not a lick of energy. Perhaps I will be able to lift a needle to do a few more stitches on my sampler.
