I don't know why, every interest that I have has to have a meeting in the same week, but this is what happened.

Quilt Guild on Monday, Writer's Club on Tuesday, Bible Study on Wednesday and Celtic Club on Thursday.     

Am I getting involved. OR WHAT.  Dick would have been holding me back.   Actually it is the timing, not the interests.   (I mean that, Dick!!!)   Hopefully, I will be able to spread things out a bit.   But it did work.

I am meeting good people and getting involved. 

Today was great.  I saw Dr. Toy and my bones are not too bad considering the weather.   I had a furnace maintenance done and my lawn mowed.   Tomorrow I have NOTHING.   What a relief.  

Actually, Mary will come to clean, but I don't have to do anything except let her in for that:)

Time is winding down.   I am tired.   It looks like the condo may close a bit early.   That would be nice.   It will be pleasant not to be paying a house payment again.   I spent part of this afternoon sorting receipts.  Each year I do the same thing  throw them into a folder and then about this time of the year realize that I have a spider's web and sort.  Tee Hee.  Must be an easier way.

Talked to Leslie today.  We always have a lot to talk about.  They are doing well and have a full house, as Sara and her husband Jon, and Joh and Sara's son Matthew are staying there.   I got to talk to Sara's Jon the other day and was impressed.  He seems like a sweetheart and loves our Sara.

Just got home from Writer's Club.   A good meeting.   I pulled out a short story that I wrote many years ago as the group is planning on publishing an anthology on Amazon before Christmas.    Jed said that I can write or submit a couple of poems for Segway but I DO have his ONE short story too.

Tomorrow, Bible Study and the dentist.

I got the papers for the sale of the condo notarized and sent off to Alison today.   So it was busy.

Had a visit from Bart this afternoon too.

Just got back from Quilt Guild meeting.   It is fun to do that and I get to do it with Barb.   We had a quilt judge go over the criteria and steps they go through in judging quilts at the shows.   The Wichita Mountain Guild (the one Barb and I belong to) has a show every other year and February 2017 is the next one.    I am working on the President's Challenge and will enter a wall hanging or two in the show.   FUN.

I was busy all day.   Made reservations for the hotel in Chicago, hand quilted a bit, paid some bills, just generally a busy day.   Did not finish all my list until after 3PM.

Tomorrow I will be getting the papers for the sale of the condo notorized and sent back to Alison.   The condo will close on the 30th.   Then I can pay this place off and be done with all of that.   Whew.

It was muggy today and tomorrow will be the same but then it is supposed to cool down a bit.   Actually, it was cool when Nicky and I walked this morning.   That was REALLY nice.

A beautiful day.  I had air coming though my home today.   What a pleasure after all the heat we have had.

I went to mass at 8:30AM and got a donut afterwards to socialize with my church friends. 

The rest of the day was too quiet again.

I did accomplish a lot but do miss my sweetheart.  Just somebody to talk to.
