Went uptown and bought black & white sleeveless sweater. We all went to bed early so we could be up early for excursion.

Quilting has taken over
I haven’t had much time for my genealogy lately. It’s the chaos of summer and quilting that has me busy as a bee. Hopefully things will calm down now that all the trips are done with and Grandpa is settled. I’ve discovered quilting really relaxes me so I’ve been working on that a little more then genealogy. I’ve got the itch to have a genealogy day soon though! My research didn’t happen this summer because of circumstances, so I have a little more time now to sort through my family files and get them straight. I’m still transcribing Llewellyn’s Diary, and I have an inbox full of emails to answer today. So don’t give up on me yet! It’s just a sign of summer.
