And if you're not a Mom, I sent my wishes on to your family for a happy day nonetheless. Yes, I came down from the ladder - DH took me to Forbidden Kingdom yesterday. Relaxing. Today I paint the living room ceiling, finish the white base coat on my last wall (this is taking forever moving furniture around) and Monday start the colour. Going to take a piece of the fabric I'm making the curtains with to the paint store to match the wall paint tone - heck I've come this far might as well get the colour right. Stopped in at the Lazyboy store yesterday - we ordered a new couch (recliners on either end) and a new oversized giant recliner for Dave (6'3"). It has a great feature of extended leg rest you can push out with your foot so your feet don't over hang. These are do in a couple of weeks which hopefully works out for all of my old furniture around here that is spoken for and due to leave about the same time - otherwise the stuff can get introduced to the back garden shed. No love lost there! Finally getting our first living room furniture that's not hand-me-down. Only took 15 years but that's okay. At least it's cash and not on credit. Wonderful to see everyone is enjoying their families this weekend! Today is clean the fridge day, grocery shopping later. So I am thinking of what can I get myself for this week. Need to also start digging in the freezer to see what we have in there for meal planning. I keep forgetting. With food prices rising, I'm getting more and more fussy on portion sizes (less waste), quality and buying what we really eat and not stuff we might eat. I don't know how folk manage raising families these days. So expensive. Also have to think of packing lunches this week since I start my seasonal job of planting business/hotel garden beds. Need to pack lots of water. If ya hear me moaning next weekend about muscles I forgot I own this will be the reason behind it...I should dig out my bubble bath stuff too for this week! Enjoy your day today. Think ahead. I see apples in the fridge that need cooking (mmmmmmm), carrots and sugar free jello for later this week. Good week to get my single serving containers out to make my treats. Gotta get working on a new mini weight goal! Cheers, Peggy

WOW thanks! Look at all of us. Bunch of crazy Gemini's. HAPPY BIRTHDAY EVERYONE! Today I celebrate the 11th anniversary of my 29th birthday. Don't ask me how that is possible cause I just don't know. I am still a goofy little girl, so it CAN'T be right. DH is working today so it is just the kids and I. My boys are taking me to the movies this afternoon. They are being so cute about it too. They are paying with their allowance and birthday money and wont tell me what we are seeing. I just have to drive and have us there by noon. (Because the matinee is cheaper -LOL). DH bought Kenny Chesney tickets for my birthday. So we will celebrate in June with a concert and hotel in San Francisco. Can't wait! Hope everyone has a GREAT DAY!!! Even those not celebrating a birthday today. Dani

Okay ladies I think I have decided. I really loved all the names this year. It looks like most of the people in Group 1 that put in there 2 cents liked blockhounds. I like it too so Group 1 is now The Blockhounds. And for groups 4 I know some of you like fabric floozies but we did have an objection from someone being called a floozie or sassy so how does the Calico Queens sound. I really liked that one. Okay those are my picks for this years birthday groups. If there are no objections than those will be our official names this year. Blockhounds Peicemakers Off-kilter quilters Calico queens Thanks bunches for all the ideas. Amy
