Day 59 of 2026

We were out today near the Old House and decided to walk by

 and see how it was doing. 

We were shocked to see how inhospitable it was. 

I am so sad to see such a great house give off such a vibe. 

I cannot know what Great Grandpa H's reaction would be

 if he were still here to see this, 

but I imagine it would include both sadness and anger.

You can also click the Old House label in the left sidebar

 on the blog page for some pictures of the beautiful interior.

Sunshine, shadows and chimes.

 

Day 57 of 2026

One Big Adventure tonight was a Pacers game. 

It was fun even if they didn't win.

 

Day 56 of 2026

Here is another quilt top I just acquired. 

This one is very well made although maybe not quite square.

 It doesn't surprise me

 as the quilt is all on the bias before the borders. 

It measures approximately 86 x 90 inches.

Day 55 of 2026

I recently found a few quilt tops. 

This one has 31 different embroidered flowers. 

I can see lines under some of the stitches. 

I can't tell if they were printed on the fabric

 or traced by the maker. 

Either way, this one will be fun to quilt up.

 

Day 54 of 2026

It was a happy mail day. 

M sent me a new sticker for my water bottle. 

The sentiment is so accurate.

 

Day 53 of 2026

GB#5 asked me to play a game today. 

I said yes.

Right after you win, you are instructed

 to flip the spinner over to the mirror side 

and smile at that Pretty Pretty Princess. 

GB#5 followed instructions.
