Staying hooked up, but having fun

Hit the ground running when I arrived in Phoenix.  Susan was there to pick me up Sky Harbor, so I got a little catching up and visiting done on the ride home.  A pile of mail and calling for appointments. Waited 4 hours for tree trimmer to come take care of the backyard palms that were wrecking ruin on the swimming pool with the blossom fall out.  The pool people had been in 4 times last week, trying to keep it from totally turning.  The water was a bit green, but they had done a pretty good job.  Trimmer not showing, I had to get on with other things, so headed out on errands.  Then I ran by to pick up Susan and we went out to visit the folks.  I took back some books we had borrowed, and picked up two quilts they had taken to be machine quilted for me.  It was great to be with the folks.  They fly out on Friday with Kelly Sue and Cody to attend Ryan's graduation.

The tree trimmers finally connected at 7:00 Wednesday morning.  So glad to get that completed.  After paying the trimmer, it was more errands, some much needed shopping but mostly, it was about getting Ryan's family culinary heritage scrapbook printed and into a binder.  It took a lot longer than we thought, but, Kelly Sue and I got it done.  I hope Ryan likes his custom made graduation/congrats on new job gift.

After accomplishing that project, Kelly Sue and I did a little pampering by going to lunch then to have a pedicure.  That was the fun part of the day.

Today I was out shortly after 7:00a.m. and down to get the car's new paint job buffed at the body shop.  The paint needed to season, harden or something, so we picked up the car and parked it in the garage hours before we moved to Colorado last month.  After that there were only 2 major things left on my to-do list.  I think I've done pretty good with what looked like a monster list. 

I'm preparing to pack the car now.  I am in the beginning stages of the last thing on my list....binding the quilts.  Will have to finish after camp meeting. Susan and I are traveling up together, so that will make more visiting time. Yay!

Binding cut and ready to sew
