I've fallen behind in reading blogs the past few days, and also in commenting or responding to comments on my own blog. Life happens.
Monday I played golf. Tuesday I had appointments.
Wednesday morning began early as I had to make a quick trip to the clinic for a blood draw prior to my annual physical. But just before I left we both got phone calls from friends to share some very bad news. In the tiny rural town we lived in previously there had been a house fire, just 2 doors from our old house. The husband and wife living there both died in the fire. We were neighbors for 2 decades, I taught with her for many years at the same school, our kids went to school together, she gave both of my girls piano lessons. I just had lunch with her 2 weeks ago. It was just so shocking and so sad. The loss of these 2 fine people will leave a big hole in the community.
One row was assembled for the Buckeye Beauty top, and I made several of the QOV blocks that I had kitted up for Leaders/Enders. Today I hope to get more rows sewn with the Buckeye blocks.
