August 16th
Another set of four blocks were finished last night for the scrap log cabin.
I also cast on another pair of socks last night so that the travel bag will have something in it. LOL!
Are you registered to vote? If not, what are you waiting for?

Still waiting for the plumber - he caught something from his kid so we will see him next week.
I did the last part of the living room rug and now have to wait for it to dry.
Sun’s out but they predict rain later.
I am off to get some things done so have a great day!
