Sewing Bee

Okay lately things have been crazy and seems as though everyday I want to be lazy but then something happens and I am spontaneously out the door within 20 min. This morning I saw Pravan out the door and onto the bus at 8:15. I then snuggled with Priyasha for a short while and got her dressed for the day. I then let her play with her baby dolls and clean her room up. I took some time to sew all the six inch squares I had perfectly laid in a pattern on the floor. Last night Pepper , my cat had a luxurious bed and messed up my fabric.
It was not long before the phone rang and it was an automated call from the library. They had a book for me to pick up. Since I was going there I went early and stayed for story time. I ordered more books from this book list I have for the kids and then headed to the supermarket. When we got home Priyasha and I had lunch and then she took her nap. I continued to sew my quilt and then Pravan came home. When he got of the bus he was sleepy and tired. Poor guy, this has been a hard week with a major change for him. He had a snack and then helped me bake some cupcakes. I am planning on taking it to school for the kids in Pravan's class. Priyasha also helped. Pravan's package for his birthday from grandma finally arrived. Yeahhhh !!!!!. She mailed it on Aug 04 and it took 24 days to get here from the east coast. That is insane. It should have taken 10 days. Pravan was thrilled and we called grandma to give her the good news. She asked Pravan to go ahead and spend the $20 anyway. It is like he is having a birthday all over again.
I am almost done with the African quilt for the toddler bed. It is looking good.I will show you pictures when the project is completely finished. I keep adding more things to do on the list so it may be another week or two. I also treated myself to this new Smirnoff cosmopolitan drink. I am not sure that I like it very much but hey it is a martini. I am off to drink that and relax.
Take care !
