OMG treble that quilt is fantastic!!

Glad to hear everyone is safe.

NS lol look how my Sonny was dressed for halloween last year. He was not all that interested in being a lobster, I tried to get a decent photo, but caught him while he was yawning.

OMG my dog wouldn't of been yawning she would of been biting me for that!!! Too cute! She was mad at me for dressing her like a dallas cowboy for Halloween one year and that wasn't nearly as bad her paws were free. After that I didn't torment her again, all the kids were all over her scared her to death .

are they're really a/c in pools? gee.. i thought everyone wanted heated pools..this might start a new trend...

I'll take the heated pools over the a/c pools anyday!
DS took a walk around the neighborhood and they really lucked out, there was massive amounts of damage to cars as well as homes and office buildings. A car in their complex got totally crushed by one of those huge garbage thingy's. Their bayou is to the top but seems to have stopped filling, hopefully it won't start raining again north of them or they will be wading. DD and her bf got back from his mom's just as the power came back on. They had a heck of a time getting home, I-45 was under water in one spot and I-10 was also flooded in one area. We got about 2 hours of pouring rain that was sideways from the wind blowing so hard. It actually leaked in places like around the doorknob from it hitting so hard. Otherwise though other then hours of wind with big gusts we didn't get anything like they warned us about thankfully and so far haven't heard about any tornado's. DH didn't get called into the hospital so doubt there was any. thanks everyone for all the caring you've shown me even though I'm new here. You all are all very wonderful and I'm so glad I joined! Off to vote if I still can.
Oh yes treb beautiful quilt, love all the color!

Lol. You girls had a lot of fun with out me. First I had to go to town to calm mother in law down. DH's niece threatened to kill mil's dog cause he is a puppy gets excitd and tinkles. Then called my mil who is in hospital telling her she owes her $100 for a quilt spot peed on. Mil is in hospital by the way. Tuesday oughta be a hoot while we are all up there for her surgery. Maybe a jerry springer brawl at the hospital. I got a new camera so I will get pics for ya. LOL.
This was the worst night ever. I have never seen so much rain spin off from hurricane. Our roads are impassible. I lost power, then the phone line while talking to aphena. Luckily it came back on in the night. I went to bed and I be damned if the roof didnt start pouring water in on top of me. I made hubby move my bed so it didnt get ruined. I slept in the living room floor. UGH hopefully today is better.

Shoot! My secret is out! Why use dull boring colors when there is so much pretty fabric in the shops? Actually, I think I was color deprived as a child. We didn't have all of the pretty bright and hot colors in our crayola boxes in the 60's that the kids have now. I just love all of the pretty colors! I'm too old to wear them, but I can certainly enjoy them when I "play" with my quilting fabrics! I wish the colors had photographed "true". They are prettier in person than in the pic.

Thanks for all of your kind comments on my quilt! I worked on it all summer, and will enter it in the county fair today. Keep your fingers crossed for me!

You would win in one of our fairs. I don't get the way they work tho, it's like the simplest things win (crocheted dishclothes for pete's sake) and then something more complicated. but never seen anything as fancy as THAT!

so GOOD LUCK AT THE FAIR! and if it's rigged and ya don't win, give it to a 4-H club member to sumbit as her quilt, and split the prize

ohhh yeah, i keep forgetting I mailed a SASE to the contest to get list of winners. So who knows when i will get that...

that's a good idea. but they will post them..eventually...

Hey, have I missed something? Have they extended the
contest? Should I be voting????

OMG my dog wouldn't of been yawning she would of been biting me for that!!! Too cute!

1. the yawning is what makes this picture so funny.
2. that's nuts! esp doorknobs leaking
3. they're called refuse containers and they go by tonnes. (hubby was a sanitation engineer, i could even tell you if it was a front loader, rearloader, roll off or boom truck that had to pick it up)

yup one of my many talents, useless trivia.

[Aphena]

Yeah, but with the SASE I may get them first LOL. THen I will ask for donations to share....hehehehhehehhe

[NSangel]

my internet is acting wonky guys..

nothing was loading earlier, and now only this site

are u guys trying to keep me all to yourselves?

[roseofblack25]

LOL earlier I could get on everything else but SC
I was complaining to boo about it and he couldnt get anything to load either

[stardreamer7880]

You all with kids in the contest may have already thought about this but if you want to save the comments for your kids then just copy and paste the positive ones and leave out the negative. You can put it on some nice stationary and print it out for them. Just a suggestion, have heard some mention that its a shame you wouldn't be able to do that.

[haunish]

still voting, by the way anyone know a good exorcist..lol...my doors keep flying open and closed ...freaking me out..

[roseofblack25]
