I'll Take Your Challenge --

Amy tagged us so here's my list of things we'd never say. Some may be a little lame, it really did take some deep thought to come up with these:

Things I'd never say:

1. Can I have avocado/guacamole with that?
2. No thanks, I really wouldn't care for a Godiva chocolate.
3. I think I'll mow the lawn today.
4. I'd love to sit down and watch that baseball/basketball/football game with you.
5. Let me kill that spider for you.
6. You'll never find me sewing/quilting.
7. My hair looks so great, I don't think I need to wash it today.

Things I think that Steve would never say:

1. I never forget where I put anything.
2. I'd love to have a huge piece of that chocolate cake.
3. I hate yardwork.
4. Let's go shopping.
5. I'd like to sleep in tomorrow morning.
6. I think the front lawn can go without mowing for a couple of weeks.
7. I've never liked the Dodgers.

Steve concurred with his list and has just discovered that he can't remember where he left his Church keys.

Summer's End

The summer is nearly over -- just 2 weeks until school begins again. It seemed like at the beginning that things would not be as hectic as usual and I mentally compiled a list of all the things that I wanted to accomplish. I wish I could say that I had accomplished all or at least many of those things, but there's always another summer. I did get to do those things that were at the top of my list: Taking a class and learning how to machine quilt; I finally made Brooklyn's quilt -- it was about 3 years overdue, but it was my 1st quilt that I made from beginning to end, thanks to having taken the machine quilting class. I was able to attend a huge quilt show in Long Beach as well as visiting about 20 quilt shops in Southern California. The very best part of the summer was having all the kids and grandchildren spending their vacation at our house. What fun!!

Kids slumber party -- did they get any sleep?
