Friday night

"Fractured" is quilted.  I did add more quilting, diagonal lines in the other direction but only half as many, resulting in rectangles instead of diamonds.  After auditioning several pink and turquoise fabrics, I chose a couple of purple/turquoise prints to use for binding.  There's not quite enough of either one so I will probably use equal parts of each.

Yesterday e came over for a while.  We went to the park again, where she played alongside a little boy.  We were surprised to discover part of the climbing structure had been removed.  This week the library was open, so we checked out four books, two of which were about trucks.  After lunch and reading, I put her in bed despite her protests.  But she didn't sleep.  E and ec came over for supper of baked chicken and veggies; K had a business dinner that kept him in the city.

Last night fierce winds and rain blew through the area.  My goodness!  This morning on my way to E's to use her dryer I saw several trees down and lots of twigs and leaves on streets and sidewalks.  As our sheets dried E drove to the Target in Emeryville to get a couple of drapery rods our local store didn't have, leaving both children with me, a test run of sorts for the time E returns to work.

Tonight Randy and I watched "Hell or High Water" as we ate salmon patties and roasted potatoes.  So often lately by the time supper is over and the kitchen cleaned up, it seems too late to start a movie.  By eating as we watched we were done with supper and movie by 8:30, with minimal cleanup to do afterwards.
