Now that the office mess is just about conquered, and I've done all I can on the book, I'm beginning to want to make quilts. Trouble is, my right hand is so arthritic, it can hardly hold a book, let alone a needle. I'll just have to go the machine-stitching route, I guess. There are several quilt tops in the cedar chest, including the beautiful basket quilt that I made from Mama's blocks. That's the only one I'd really love to get quilted. But I'll think about that tomorrow, or next year.
This has been a long week. Hard to believe that just a week ago we were "snowed in." Downton Abbey ends this-coming Sunday, and Project Runway doesn't have many more Thursdays to go. I guess for entertainment I'll have to watch old reruns of Property Brothers and Castle. I may start reading books again--but that's how the house got in such a mess. If I got hold of twenty new books as good as Patrick O'Brian's Jack Aubrey series, the house could cave in for all I'd notice.

My hands are giving me more and more trouble too. I'm afraid my days of doing handwork are numbered.
