Good Night Irene

Hi Friends!
Got that last row added and now I will have to wait until my battening gets here.  Suppose to get here tomorrow. I have run slap out.
So I started working on another wheelchair quilt.. Making charm square good night Irene blocks.
This one measures 25 by 25 so a white border on each side would make it at 36 and two stacked would be fifty in length and they need to be 45. Don't think they will mind a little longer.
I may just make two  wheel chair quilt of these since I have more blocks started.
I am also running out of white so I am going to have to get some more of that.
I walked yesterday but Tommy didn't walk with me.
This is what he did.
He hates for limbs to get in his way when he mows so he trimmed up several in the yard. I didn't help him because I needed to vacuum so I did the whole house.
Took advantage of him being out side so I could get some work done.
Guess I will be making another good night Irene block this afternoon.
Took my car to the shop this morning early, because we will need it weekend after next to go to graduations. We will drive Tommy's baby until I get it back.
He bought his truck new the year before we got married and the only time in the last few years that we went on a trip in it the transmission nearly fell out. Had to have it rebuilt.
Makes me not trust it.
We haven't had any more trouble out of it since  but still......
Have a good one
Hugs

I am like your hubby, I too hate getting hit in the face with branches while mowing the lawn

Good Night Irene - love that - Irene was my aunts name. So your car is now in the shop too. They are not rebuilding my transmission - I am getting a new used one.

Your wheelchair quilt is moving along. Isn't it sad you have to have Tommy occupied to get anything accomplished. LOL I can relate to lifting the trees and bushes though.

We've been working outside for the past two days. Can't believe we actually had 2 days in a row without rain. BUT, it's in the forecast for tonight and all day tomorrow. Whenever we need to go out of town, I rent a car. It's just so much more comforting to know that someone will be there if we have car trouble, which Terry can no longer take care of. I guess we'll have to buy a new car, but I hate the price tags and too worried that a used car will come from a flood area.
