Mondays are quilt association meeting days for me and generally, I'm out of the house by 9:15 am. Today I was leaving later and following the meeting - planning to meet my friend Pat for lunch and afterwards, go to our LYS for one of these cute hats to knit ~ sortof as a break from our other forms of hand work - mostly quilt applique´and stitching bindings on finished quilts. We have both just recently finished with major quilt projects and have several (I use the term several loosely) knitting UFOs, vying for our attention. Anyway, we thought a fun knitting project would make for a nice break and serve too as a catalyst to get us back into a knitting frame of mind.
The morning began with a perk: FaceTime with friend Mary. Afterwards, I called Pat only to find out she was feeling a bit under the weather. Upon arising, Norman announced that he too wasn't quite feeling himself ... As they say: "Life gets in the way of one's plans... I never made it to my meeting but as I pen this, I'm happy to report that things are looking up for all parties concerned. Hoorah! And now, onto the post:
Last week's mail was filled with many items of delight:
- a Costco member reward certificate for a whole $3.53 cents...
- a bunch of coupons for free or discounted food delivery and/or a free box of snacks...
- a uniPOSCA white pen for writing on photographs...
- a fun KateSpade rotating rubber stamp : some of the sentiments are: be an elegant thinker; live colorfully; read fine print...
- AliEdwards February story kit: bond...
- "still my President" decal and
ALL.THE .WAY. FROM. JAPAN
- a three color Otho red-blue-black pen and 0.5mm pencil Pretty neat! and
THE BEST of ALL
- My Women's March on Washington T-shirt!
Again this week I'm joining Sian of From High in the Sky for Monday's Memos, Mail, Me. Do pop over to see what others have shared. I hope this week the postal service brings you a bunch of goodies. Til tomorrow...
Cheers~
