Since the last post, a lot has happened/ended/improved/come-and-gone. Here is just a sampling.
Been living from Tuesdays to Thursdays to get K-dub through his compressed college course, and he ended with a solid A! Yea, Karl! He even used the opportunity to get up IN FRONT OF THE CLASS AND SPEAK for an additional (but totally unnecessary) fifteen extra credit points, using as a topic one of his written assignments throughout the course. I am so very proud of him for following through and taking the class when he really wanted to drop out of it all those weeks ago.
Brian went to a tournament in Chicago over the weekend, and had his own brand of epiphanies. We'll see where it takes him over the coming weeks/months.
Must head to the library to take an online aptitude test (job-related), as our internet connection is so slow, and more than occasionally takes a diaper break in the middle of every operation. Would hate for that to happen during the typing test portion.
Have gotten halfway through RowD, and can now begin to look ahead to RowE. One-quarter of the quilt is nearly OFFICIALLY complete, and I am excited to say the least. A far cry from being in the first row with so much to look forward to. I confess, I believed wholeheartedly that the process would go faster - especially after the first few squares, but adding material (colors) to the palette seems to have made it more difficult and time consuming.
Dropped online a couple of days ago to log the computer off for the evening, and saw that my lovely friend Maria was online, and in her google account. By the time my home internet connection allowed the correspondence box to open up....she had signed out. I was disappointed to have missed the chance to face-to-face with her. [sigh] I hope she is doing well, and that her summer classes have brought her closer to reaching her immediate goals. Miss you, Maria!
OK, time to stop burning daylight. Enjoy your days and be well, everyone.
