I cannot believe that it is Easter already! Feels like only last week when we were celebrating the New Year!
With four days off, I think need to try and get some things on my 'To Do' list ticked off. These are only some of the things I have lined up:
- Paint the Study (going to be shades of green to match the blinds)
- Level the grass area in the front. This will involve planting stay poles, then putting knocking the sides onto these, line this with thick plastic and fill it with good soil. Will see about this job!!
- Finish the leaf applique and sew the side panels onto the centre block
- Finish my 'Mother of Mine' wall quilt for my Mum
- Catch up on ironing
- Take Paxton for some decent walks
- Scan some more magazines for the library of our quilting group
- Try to relax
And I have how many days off I said?
Friday, 9 April, I will try my hand at golf (going with a group from work)! I do not suppose having played hockey will count for anything towards my handicap? No? OK, thought not.
Blessed wishes for a peaceful Easter with loved ones, discovering the true meaning behind all the chocolate eggs, fluffy rabbits and other delectable treats!
Warm regards
Ha, got myself all prepared for an afternoon of participating in activities with Miniatures Enthusiasts Tasmania (Kingston group), only to discover that it was our Annual General Meeting that was taking place LOL. Anyway, nothing lost - paid my membership for this year and heard what everybody did in the past year that I had missed from not being present. Just had too many personal issues that needed sorting out before I could immerse myself into this hobby again. Now the time is ripe again.
We have the Miniatures' Extravaganza taking place in July this year in Hobart and I think it is going to be another great effort by everybody working on the project. Although I would love to participate in building my own box, I do not have enough confidence in my abilities yet at this stage as I see myself as a newbie in miniatures with very little experience.
I also got my study assignment in today on its due date and started on the next one - pity my 'lesser' half decided that he will listen to music in the car downstairs in the garage so as not to bother me with music out the back. Only problem - it is so loud, he may have been playing it on his computer next to me in the study!
Now I do not have to feel guilt when I work on my quilt tomorrow! Woo hoo. I am really looking forward to this. There are just SO many things I want to get started on but do not want to create too many objects that end up as UFO's. I know, the outcome will be the same anyway - everybody has UFOs!! I need to learn to let go and enjoy the moment - get structured in something else, not planning my projects like military exercises.
Off to pull out the fabric and get the cutting board ready ........
Warm regards
