Our granddaughter Mary, Rose's mom is expecting another baby and discovered today it is a BOY.  We are happy about that because all our great granddaughters are girls . Congratulations to Mary,  Albert and Rose.

We went to the salon this morning to get haircuts only to discover the appointments were for tomorrow. 
So we decided to go for lunch. We went for pancakes at IHOP but got eggs and sausages too. Good stuff and we had not been there for some time.
Then we went to the medical equipment shop for some belts for me and then because the casino was right next door we went there for a time but not for too long. We were home early and I was once again tired so I had a nap.
 I read for a while, a book called The Eleventh Victim. I have no idea where I got it and it has been recovered in a heavy black cover with no title or author inscribed on the cover. A mystery but the book reads well and I am enjoying reading it.

I discovered today that I can down/upload books from the library. I will try again. The last time I tried the librarian had no idea how to do that but it was a while ago, so I'll try it again.It will be a bit less expensive or a lot less expensive.
I may go into the library tomorrow while Ray is getting his hair cut.  

We are watching Bomb Girls a series that is a look into the past for me. I recall much of what is going on in this series. I was a girl during WW2 and it was the most important thing happening at the time. I feel as if I was situated in the middle of this period piece.  
I thought this one was funny, we love these wonderful horses. once when we were in Sealand in Florida we saw teams of these guys that belonged to Anhauser Busch. Ray had his picture taken with them. He used to work with these horses in the logging camps in ontario when he was young and fell in love with them.

A table runner with no pattern. I have a quilt show tonight without patterns.
What a pretty log cabin quilt covering the table for tea time.
Another pretty piece sitting on a garden bench.

16 patch makes for a lovely quilt. 

Not a quilt......adorable though.

But this is and it is a 4 square basket quilt.

So here it is the end of the blog and the beginning of the evening.

Well it is actually 9:00 so not quite the beginning LOL.
Good night folks.
