Margie and I were able to sew the jelly roll into a quilt top in 1 hr and 36 min. We both had problems with our machines that we don’t expect to have with the ones we will be using at the fair so we may be able to do it a little faster. The resulting top is kind of boring, being just strips sewn end to end back and forth but it is in the doing. It is the journey, not the destination. Or some such stuff. We feel ready to compete and after the race, we will play at the fair and eat fair food! As you can see by Itzl's concerned look, this group is for us to check in at to let people know we are alive, doing OK, and not affected by such things as heat, blizzards, floods, wild fires, hurricanes, tornadoes, power outages, or other such things that could keep us off DKos. If you're not here, or anywhere else on DKos, and there are adverse conditions in your area (floods, heatwaves, hurricanes, etc.), we are going to check up on you. If you are going to be away from your computer for a day or a week, let us know here. We care! IAN is a great group to join, and a good place to learn to write diaries. Drop one of us a PM to be added to the Itzl Alert Network anytime! We all share the publishing duties, and we welcome everyone who reads IAN to write diaries for the group! Every member is an editor, so anyone can take a turn when they have something to say, photos and music to share, a cause to promote or news!

Lil Zen has taken the day off work to come see us sew and I am sure she will stay and play with us. She and I haven’t been to the fair for years but always had a good time. She got licked in the face by a zebu calf when she was 7 or 8. That lick pulled her right up to her tip toes. She giggled. It was the best. On the home front, Bill saw the doctor today and was told he can not return to work until at least July so I imagine he will get fired next week. The Kaiser A.I. bot sent me a letter basically saying pick out a plot, suddenly everything is pre disaster, its depressing. I am going to get a complete work up so that I can get everything at once and let my Dr tell me WTF is going on. Old age! Both of the mollies in my aquarium died last week but hadn’t looked good for a few days. All 7 of my new fishies are still thriving in the green water of the pond. The cats are fine, the dog is getting old and slow, like me and Bill. End of report. Take care.
