Russ came home from the post office with a big box today. I had no idea what was in it. SURPRISE!! It was a box from Blogging buddy Carol, from Carol K’s Journey. Carol became a grandma for the first time this year and just recently purchased a sewing machine. She wants to learn to quilt and said it has been a long time since she has done much sewing. However, from the looks of what she sent me, she hasn’t lost her touch.
Russ pulled things out of the box and tried to explain to me what they were. He said there was a scarf, two ear muffs, and a pillow. And since he was all dressed in his best Duck Gear, he said the entire present must be for him. (basketball not included, batteries sold separately!)
No, Russ, WRONG, guess again.
No, it is NOT an arm warmer.
As any WOMAN can tell you, this very nice handmade present is a table runner, two pot holders and a throw pillow. If the pillow wasn’t so nice, I would throw it at Russ!!
Carol and Dave know we are Duck fans so she could not have made anything any nicer or more appreciated. She says she was just practicing but it sure doesn’t look like “practice” to me!! Thank you so much Carol. I really appreciate your thoughtfulness.
In other news…we are almost packed up and ready to roll on Sunday afternoon. Will probably only go as far as Seven Feathers the first night but it’s a start. We are in no hurry and are just meandering down the road at our own pace. We plan on about a 4 week jaunt. Who knows how far we can get in four weeks???
Time for a little rolling Therapy!

BTW, I’m not big on conspiracy theories, but…certain nefarious types have let it be known that they are going to annihilate FB tomorrow on Guy Fawkes Day (Google it!) Who knows if they will be able to do what they threaten but that may not be all they hack. I backed up my blog today just in case!!
