Since leaving my ex a couple of years ago, I have been living in a new apartment building, and loving it. Last Summer a new building next door was started, so we have lived with noise and dust for most of the year. This past week the final touches are being made to the outside parking and gardens, so good bye construction equipment, noise and dust.
Friday, July 4th
It was a nice sunny day, not too hot, only 28*C with no humidity. Went to my Yoga class in the morning.
I am a quilter who does not throw out any of my scraps, previously I had sorted those pieces in sizes, 1 1/2 ", 2 1/2, 3 1/2 squares and up, ( I know, nothing get tossed). This method did not work very well, so today resorted into colours, and they were all placed in their colour coordinated bins. Yes, I have way too much time on my hands. After all of this work I deserved a rest, so went to happy hour in our lounge.
Saturday, July 5th.
Very hot and humid today, but I did not mind as I was going to an outdoor music fest in a near by city. Music groups from different countries were playing on five stages. Over 200 vendors serving food from different counties, and crafty vendors selling everything under the sun. Seated in my chair, under a huge oak tree, cold drink in hand, with the occasional cool breeze, I listened to music during the afternoon. Wanting a break from sitting, I wandered through the vendors and could not resist, I made a purchase, then chose a delicious sub sandwich for my dinner. Music continued until 11:00 p.m. Returning home when everything shut down. Lovely day.
Sunday, July 6th.
Still hot and humid. Lazy day due to busy day yesterday.
Monday, July 7th.
Cooled down somewhat, so my eldest granddaughter N and I went to visit my DD1 and SIN who had rented a cottage on the shore of Lake Huron.
Had a nice day visiting, walking the beach with great grands who played in the sand and on the edge of the water, too rough for swimming.
Tuesday, July 8th.
Still nice and cool, lazy day due to yesterday and continued to sort some fabric.
Wednesday July 9th.
Yoga in the morning, and then tidied my sewing room after all the sorting and started sewing those scraps.
Thursday, July 10th.
Turned hot again.
Grocery shop and had my hair cut.
Friday, July 11th.
Went out with two quilting friends, as we do every couple of weeks or so. This time we picked up a coffee, went to the local park, sat and had a nice time chatting about their vacations from which they both recently returned from. After three hours, women can find numerous things to talk about, can't they, we decided what and where we were going during our next "outing".
It's Friday again, so went to Happy hour.
Today Saturday, July 12th.
Heat warning in place today, so not sure if I will go to the Nostalgia Days festival here in the city where I live or not. Heat being absorbed by the streets and crowds of people have me thinking it would not be a wise thing to do.
Stay cool, keep hydrated.
Have a great day.
Cheers.
