The kids in my daughter's class built this for fairy tale week.

(I did take a picture yesterday, but it's of a kid who isn't mine and I don't want to get into trouble.  Spoiler alert:  he looks like a four-year-old Harry Potter.)

Cub scouts were making Easter baskets tonight.

Ornithology is not my specialty.  But I think there's some red-tailed hawks moving into my neighborhood.

Right now, it's about 82" square.  I'll be adding ten more inches of border to each side before it gets layered and quilted.  Think I'm gonna have to borrow the hall at the church for layering it...

(Inspector No. 9-lives still approves.)

Daughter wanted to see the balcony at church this morning.  These stained glass windows are in the balcony.  There's a rose window above them (and also you can see part of the pipe organ).

Yesterday's picture.  I don't understand how this is a comfortable way to sleep.

Looking out my back door this morning.

Well...TRYING to look out my back door.  The window was a little obscured.

Having a glass of wine and going through the mail.  It's been an emotional couple of weeks for my friends--three people have gotten engaged, someone announced a pregnancy, somebody getting married next month, and on the flip side, there's been seven deaths, including someone's much-loved furbaby, and a miscarriage.  On top of that, two of them moved across the country.  To say nothing of all the miscellaneous health and weather issues.

This one's for all of you, whether we're celebrating or remembering.

Dinner tonight was roasted chicken in a Caribbean marinade and fresh green beans sautéed in garlic and olive oil.

You know.  Comfort food.

Well, I made it a month and a half into the year before I slipped.  I didn't manage to get a photo yesterday--between the terrible weather and a sudden bout of illness, I simply didn't mess with my camera yesterday.

Got this shot this morning, though...you know what they say about a red sunrise...

It's like there's some big furry deal about today...I just can't put my finger on what...

Oh.  That's right.  Fat Tuesday is just around the corner.

Packages from BOTH grandfathers arrived today!  Big bucket full of munchies, and also a princess garden!  (Her brother got a big bucket full of munchies and also a dinosaur garden.)

The collection of photos on my refrigerator says, "Please put up newer pictures."  (The one at the top left is from nearly nine years ago, and I can't get my head around that.)

Yesterday's shot.  New feature in the living room.

Didn't turn out quite like I expected.  But I'm assembling the quilt top, so that's a good thing...

Today's photo is brought to you by Dr. Teeth.  This is actually in my dentist's office.

Yesterday's photo.  Kitty does not approve of being interrupted while shopping online.

Spending the weekend at the Franciscan campus.  So are the deer.

Retreat weekend!  This is hanging on the wall in the hallway of the hermitage.

This statue stands in my backyard.  I don't know a lot about it; it was here when we moved in.  I think she wishes it were spring too.

And the last two squares are done.  I haven't had a lot of time to work on it lately, so the top remains VERY unassembled.

I tried capturing this picture last night, but first I couldn't get the lighting to look even remotely decent, then the cat got all up in the middle of everything, then the battery in my camera died.  GAH.

Anyway.  Still lots of assembling to do, and I've spent most of the week unable to do my hour a day of sewing.  Keeping my fingers crossed for next week...

No, I'm not hiding in the kitchen, why would you ask?

The previous two are out of order--apparently I'm not clever enough to hit the "publish" button every time.  Grr.

Music practice.  Also, a game closet that needs a reorganization.

Another of my many hobbies.
