So the long weekend started with getting out of work at 2. Was nice to get out early, the only part that sucked was that I still had class so I only got to chill at home for an hour before having to go out again. Oh well. Life keeps moving onward.
So Thursday, Thanksgiving, Stacy and I went over to mom's house for the day. Got over there at about 11am and didn't leave until around 4p. Watched 3 movies, Shrek 3, some Beatles movie, and Limony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events. Food was good. There was a spastic episode after we had eaten when Rosie was chewing on a bone and Sandi walked by her so Rosie grabbed Sandi by the neck. I think that Rosie was just holding onto her as Sandi did not make any noises of pain. But because it was mom's dog mom flipped out and dropped her plate into a grip o pieces. Needless to say that the end of Thanksgiving was exciting to say the least.
So then we get to Friday.... Oh boy mom is such an early riser... Wish I had been able to sleep in!!!! Oh well. So I went over to mom's house to push her to finish my quilt. Well it worked!!! Got her to finish sewing the top n bottom strip on the front....
And another of her finishing the top....
Then it was time to push her to finish the back. Love the pattern! Next it was time to roll it up and "burp" it. Then turn it inside out...
So that's us rolling it up....
We finally figured out how to unroll it and here is what it looked like unrolled.
We're done!!! Well not quite.. Had to go over Friday and Saturday. With finally finishing it on Sunday. Here are pictures of me "quilting" it.
And another....
Not exactly the way I wanted to spend my 4 day weekend, but I am grateful that my quilt is finally finished. I do not have a picture of it on my bed yet as I had just finished most of the finishing ties at 10p Sunday nite.
On a side note, Stacy and I are playing basketball again and it feels good. Took Chocolate to the park two days outta the four day weekend. Had a blast... Can't wait for a REAL break lol....
Well back to work... I am covering receptionist duties for Lori... On the day that the potential buyers AND some of the higher ups are here!!! YIKES!!! LOL Back to it...

glad you like the quilt. Not sure I like the pics of me!!! I had a great time with you working on the quilt, and know it was hard for you to give up time off, but hope you think was a fair deal.
Love you.
Mom
