April 15th . . . payday for the government. Given all the expenses Washington DC has incurred on our behalf over the last year or so, I'm pretty sure April 15th isn't going to help all that much! Anyway, I filed our tax returns on-line the first of February, got our IRS refund and sent our our California tax payment as close to the deadline as possible. They don't worry about us losing interest so I like to return the favor!
Still sort of recovering from the 'lost' weekend. Our next door neighbors decided to throw a party with a live band. Just to make sure the LIVE band could be heard within the small confines of their backyard, they amped it up to share it with everyone within six or eight houses away. Since our house was shaking with the vibrations of the LIVE bass, we called the police and I have to admit, the neighbors were kind enough to come right over and apologized and did turn down the amplification. It was still loud. They shared with us that they were having the party for their brother who is very sick and not likely to survive his illness. I told my husband that if I'm ever at death's door, please do not park me out in the backyard next to a loud band in 55 degree weather with a cold wind blowing.
Quilting got some attention yesterday. Started out with a specific pattern in mind and ended up free lancing, AGAIN, with my own scrap quilt concepts in mind.
