My household at 1:40 PM

Oh boy---it's a LAZY Saturday at the Skatt-Ranch!



Overcast and low 70's.  It's actually a PERFECT day for some outside work, but I'm honestly POOOOOOPED out from my 8 hours of sunny gardening yesterday and 5 hours the evening before.  Paul isn't feeling that greatest, so I convinced him to do some relaxing too.  (His arm didn't need much twisting.)

Cassie's the only one awake with me right now, so she got the whole "licking bowl" to herself from a batch of scotch-a-roos I just made for a family outing tonight with friends.


I wanted something simple to work on OTHER than parking my butt in the recliner with the laptop.  THAT would have been simple, yes....but I actually wanted to accomplish something productive.  I definitely don't have the energy to stand for an hour-or-so at the quilting frame, so I grabbed the Bear Paw blocks and am working on piecing the quilt center.  

Hopefully your Saturday is meaningful!

My Saturday; not as planned

I was quilting away this morning, working on a quilt for my MIL; not feeling overly energetic, but still clippin along. I almost finished the quilting. But at noon, I came upstairs to make lunch and I never went back down.

Instead...

I spent a good hour (and then some) in the tub with a good book. I'm not feeling the greatest, so I've been sitting for the afternoon, reading and relaxing with the computer.

Although I didn't spend the day as planned, it was still nice. AND, I'm getting better at not feeling guilty when I don't quilt as planned.
