Quilt was won by Brittany

Each year for our family reunion I make some kind of friendship block.  Everybody that attends the family reunion gets to sign the inside of the block and we put the birhdays under their name.  Then after dinner we put all the blocks in a bag and draw a block.  Whoever's name is drawn wins the quilt.

Brittany is the new wife of my cousins  that had only been the family for a few months.  She requested a wall hanging so I did not sash it and only put a small border on it. I put a sleeve on the back to hang it.

My cousin called me a few days before the reunion this year and told me that at 7 pm after the reunion his daughter was getting married.  I know "You know your a redneck if you get married at a family reunion!
Well his new son in law to be won this one.  I will put it together and present to the winner next year at
the family reunion.

This Blogging is for young folks!

The more I try to learn about this blogging the more I find there is to learn.  I have learned that free does not always mean free. 
I have got to stop bloggin now long enough to get some quilts finished.

I Really Messed Up Last Night!!!

I found out how to download music and add it to my blog. But when I tried to come to my blog my computer would not open any internet explorer windows.  I went to windows explorer and found that I had no more room on my hard drive in my laptop.  I proceeded to look to see what was taking up so much room that I could get rid of.  I got jump drives and put all my saved stuff on them and freed up some room.
I finally realized that the music place I had downloaded had taken up all my room.  I tried to uninstall it and I kept getting a popup block that told me I had to have permission to uninstall it for me to call them. 

That did not work.  I called iYogi my tech support at 11:00 pm.  That was a mistake.  I did not get off the phone until 5 am.  I got rid of a lot of stuff on my computer and the music place download but he also did away with all my passwords.  I had to add passwords all day today to be able to get back on the sites I normally visit.  What a day.

I joined a water aerobics class in town that meets Monday, Tuesday and Thursday from 10:30 till 11:30.
I did not wear any sunscreen on my face and now I have fever blisters all over my top lip.  But I lost 4 pounds last week. 

Boy did I Mess up!

I worked half the night to find out how to make my blog have music.  To no avail.
I got up fresh this morning and managed to figure it out.  I downloaded what music I wanted and when I came over here to add it to my blog  my computer crashed.  I spent all day working on it and it took me two hours just to defragment my laptop.  Someone had set the preferences to NEVER where it ask when is the next scheduled defrag.   Boy these technologolocal thingamajigs just drive me crazy!
