Easy Friday night
Last night ZoeJane came over and we watched “Bridge to Terabithia” and then hung out while I worked on sewing a purse and she did some Spanish homework. I hadn’t read the book in maybe 15 years and I couldn’t remember more than this: There are these kids, right, and one of them dies? Maybe falls into a river and drowns? And there’s a rope swing? Maybe some running in there somewhere? Yeah?
About 20 minutes into the movie the two main characters come across a rope swing across a little stream. I said, “Ah ha! I was right!”
Today I went out to the pool and called a college friend and we chatted for awhile. It was good to catch up with her.
Now I will do laundry, work on my purse, put away the sewing stuff piled everywhere, clean the apartment, rearrange the furniture to make it more party-ready, do more laundry, go to the store to buy party food and beverages, bathe the dog and myself…
ZoeJane replied:
’twas fun. 🙂 I’m looking forward to tonight.

I have been thinking about quilts of late. You have joined, willy-nilly, a special group of people who make things that are treasured for years and years (until they disintegrate) and are often considered very valuable. The extrodinary variety of things that come under the rubric of “quilts” will stretch your imagination in ways you could never have suspected. Some time you should come to our house and see some of the quilts we have acquired over the years. (Bring that butler, man of the hour and man-in-the-corn, too,)
