FOR TODAY … 21 June 2011.
Outside My Window… Robins pulling worms out of the lawn. Sun setting. Someone walking by with a grocery cart fully of bottles in a trash bag.
I am thinking… I’m not ready for 96F! Why can’t we have a summer of 80F????
I am thankful for… Friends and family…and hopefully for a new place to live by the end of July.
From the kitchen… Potstickers and leftover salad. Not much.
I am wearing… shorts, brown tshirt, barefoot, hair up…it’s hot. 85F inside right now.
I am creating… Well…I had to put up my ric-rac quilt until I can order some border fabric online, which means I have to wait unitl pay day. Big sigh. None of my LQS had what I needed. I’ve cut out the first part of Rachel’s (ps i quilt) quilt along.
I am going… whimper a bit…the Giants are being beat by the Twinkies. It was 8-0 in the 1st inning. ACK!
I am reading… flipping through Food Network magazine.
I am hoping… not hoping, am praying…for patience, peace, more patience, and a puppy.
I am hearing… Kruk and Kuip on Comcast Bay Area Sports.
Around the house… Leo is a sad kitty. He wants a new house with a fenced lawn too.
One of my favorite things… helping people out with gardening. 🙂 Since I don’t have but a few pots of maters and peppers, it’s fun to help out others.
A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week… hopefully work on the quilt along quilt, go tubing on the Truckee, go to the Reno Rodeo, maybe catch Thor at the $3 movies.
Here is a picture thought I’d share with you…
Black Krim Heirloom maters growing.

Hi,
I found your blog a few weeks ago and I’m really enjoying it. Love the quilts–I have no talent in that arena so I really admire those who do. Beautiful!
I “borrowed” your simple woman’s daybook questions, and I’m going to do it every Monday. I hope you don’t mind.
I, too, live in Reno. I don’t know what kind of place you are looking for, but the condo complex we live in (and which I think is really lovely) has a number of vacant units. Let me know if you want more information (just email me).
Thanks again!
Jules
Hi Jules!
Please do use the Simple Woman’s Daybook.
We have a house picked out , it’s a short sale, so it’s taking a long time to work it’s way through the system. My sister’s boss is actually buying it so we can rent it. Hopefully in a few years our foreclosure will be off our record and we can look again.
From the look of one picture on your blog, I’d say you live near Rattlesnake Mountain?
I whimpered for you when I saw that score this morning! A most shameful way for your favorite AL team to treat to your favorite team period. 😦 And while I’m at it… WHY can’t the Tigers beat the ailing Dodgers?? Sheesh!
We were also very hot after work yesterday, and SO humid. My hair looks like I was playing around a light socket with a fork.
Fingers crossed and prayers for a new home ASAP!
Stupid Twinkies. Your Tiggers better not pull that on us in July! 😛
Ummm…it’s 105 here but we have coastal breezes and the beach (hint,hint). July is right around the corner 🙂
