Random Thought Thursday

*******
Correction to blog entry "Mid-Winter Get Away" dated February 19, 2010: In the Roman Catholic church, Saint San Sebastian is commemorated by a memorial on January 20. This is the day we visited the village of San Sebastian. The celebration we were able to be a part of was not the founding of the village, but rather the memorial to the Saint San Sebastian.

Once again, the Clock Doc is coming by to "fine tune" the chime on our antique German wall clock as well as the chiming mechanism (it is off on the number of chimes at any given hour). This will make the third time he has been by in the past two weeks, but it takes "fixing and watching" to get it right. Hopefully this will be the last visit for a while.

I'm very anxious to get down to my sewing machine to make a little peasant top for Chelsea for her birthday. The pattern I want to use is $10 so I'm waiting until next week to get it on sale for $2. It would also be very cute made up in a little summer nightgown.

My mom and dad are traveling to Colorado for a few days' visit. I can only imagine the fun get together tonight as they have dinner with Natalie, et al, Nancy et al, and Connee.

Today I Am Very Much Looking Forward To:
(1) Finish transferring hand written personal history notes to the computer.
(2) Finish spring cleaning the great room and dining room.
(3) Helping out my parents and Cousin Kimberley by making not one, but two, airport runs as they are going traveling today.

your clock sure has a lot of problems. mine does too - but so worth it, right?

you need to send me what number the pattern you'll be getting is because i need one. in houston, i would buy ahead a bunch of tanktop style shirts for chelsea, but here in CO the weather at night gets too cool for sleeveless so i'm in constant search for good short sleeves that aren't merely tshirts. need to get going on the summer wear now!
