The cool ties are done. I shipped 192 to the Ships Project this morning, they should be well on their way to Iraq/Afghanistan by the end of this week. Another 17 went into 5 boxes to Nick's group on Saturday. I think I'm done for awhile.
Didn't make it to any movies over the weekend. I'm hoping to hit a couple this week, at least. Monster House, maybe Clerks II. Still on the list: Barnyard, Ricky Bobby, You, Me and Dupree, John Tucker Must Die, Devil Wears Prada and I STILL haven't seen the Breakup!
Otherwise I rented 5 movies this weekend, and watched them while I was sewing. I FINALLY sat all the way through Mary Poppins, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, Jack Frost, Irving Berlin's White Christmas and Christmas with the Kranks (seen a few times already but still funny). Jack Frost was okay, but a little depressing. I'm getting to where I kind of resent movies that talk about dead people "still being with us". That's a bunch of crap. My dad is gone, and no matter how many memories I still have of him, I still really miss him. Someone telling me that he's still with me, only in my heart, just makes it seem like a copout. He's NOT really with me, if he was, I wouldn't be going to the cemetery every time I'm at my mom's to replace/look at the flowers. Sorry, tangent there. LOL
Anyway, back to quilt-making mode. I got together with the girls Saturday and set a Linus quilt for them, it's pretty cute. Marge is going to put my name on it so I'll start getting the newsletters. I didn't even know there was one. I want to do another Yellow Brick Road quilt to get back in the game. Those are a lot of fun, and mind-numbingly easy.
Myspace is turning out to be one big ole' high school reunion. :) What fun! Hi, Brent!
