Sunshine, running, quilts, and family.

Been loving the wonderful sunshine we've had the last few days.  We are waiting on the surveyor to give the go ahead to dig the footers.  The cut out is made for the crawl space floor. It looks so big!!

He dug between the house and the boat garage and that makes it even look bigger.

Had a bit of a scare today.  Was drying clothes.  Normally a 51 minute dry cycle doesn't always get them dry.  It had been running about 40 minutes and I decided to check them.  The clothes were so HOT I couldn't handle them.  The top of the dryer was so hot I couldn't touch it!  Ours isn't that old at 11 years, but I was hoping to get a new set for the new house.  I hate to spend a lot of money trying to fix the old one at that age.  So we may be drying on the clothes line for a while.  I am definitely afraid to use it now. I like line dried clothes anyway :)

Got in a decently long run today.  It felt great and my heart rate stayed pretty much where it should be for that exertion.

 Finished up the convex quilt and got some ideas on how to quilt it from a long armer at the quilt shop in Knoxville. I hope to get started on the quilting tomorrow.

My DIL sent this picture of their adventures today.  Her best childhood friend is visiting. They are having some fun times.

And speaking of my little granddaughter.......WBIR, the Knoxville (local to us) television station came to our house to interview me last Monday about Emma's meeting prince Harry.  Too bad they couldn't interview her, but time and distance barriers were too much.  It is going to air on the Live at Five at Four show on Monday, May 14th.  I guess that is going to be the Royal week due to Prince Harry's wedding. Honestly I dread hearing myself......I'm sure I'll sound like a country bumpkin!
