Weekend Journal Report

The last two weekends I've had something to journal and didn't!

Two weekends ago I spent Saturday at a great inservice at the Tennessee State Museum. They have a new exhibit on TN slavery with a spotlight on the Wessyngton Plantation. John Baker, a descendant of slaves from Wessyngton, spoke on the plantation and his journey into genealogy. He was very interesting as were the other speakers and activities.

I spent the rest of the weekend with my friend Elizabeth. She was exhibiting at the National Needlework Association's market. We had dinner both nights and I helped take her exhibit down. I loved spending time with her and her son.

Last weekend I dog sat my nieces.





It was my brother-in-law's birthday and they took a little trip. I left presents behind. :)

Journal - Feb 4-8

This has been a calm, quiet week. Very little to report. I made a nice roast early in the week and have not done much knitting or quilting. Maybe today will be a quilting day. Tonight I have Rising Above and right now a very very light snow is falling. 

We were supposed to wake up to an inch but apparently the snow gave out as it made its way to us. It gained a little boost and now a little is falling for the next few hours. The temperature is supposed to rise and it will all melt this afternoon. But right now my yard doesn't even look like it's falling. I would really like a pretty snow.

Snow day!! But no snow. :(  I really want some snow and a lot of it. Tennessee has had cold weather, but not much precipitation.

I spent the day in my sewing room working on a tshirt quilt. I've had the tshirts for 6 years and it is time to get this quilt finished and off to it's recipient.

I also did a little ripping on a hat and I'm going to do a couple of rows on sisters hat remake.

Good day!

Today the groundhog saw his shadow. More winter for us??

Typical Sunday with church and  a little grocery shopping. Watching movies for the afternoon.

Saturday Feb 1

Did the laundry and lots of reading. Watched a few John Wayne movies. :)

Texted with sister about her hat remake. Hope to finish it Monday. May have to mail it to her so that she can wear it while it's still cold. We really need to see one another face to face more often!!
