Absent

 I was surprise to see no posts have been added since the beginning of the month, and here we are in the last week of October, I really don't know where the time goes.

A catch up and not in any particular order.

Visited my sister several times, she is doing okay and seems fine on the outside, but wonder what is happening on the inside.

Another outing with two of my quilting friends, this time we visited an apple orchard that has a shop with all fruity treats on display, so we had a nice long chat over an apple cookie and a coffee.  A bit too early for a cider plus I was also driving, so will save that treat for another day when I am a passenger.  

Attended the monthly jazz concert, saw two groups of musicians that we had not seen before which is always nice.

My friend "J" and I purchased another subscription to the Grand Theatre in London, ON again this year and attended the first play last weekend.  "The Play that goes Wrong",  the story was, a murder mystery being performed for the first time by a group of amateur actors and everything and anything went wrong.  It was a very good light hearted play, a bit over the top at times with the slap stick comedy, but I enjoyed it.

Saw the movie, "The Roofman"  it was a good movie based on a true story.

Monday, October 13, was Thanksgiving day here in Canada, on Saturday October  11th I was at DD1's family turkey dinner.  Again, DD1 did not want the turkey carcass, so it came home with me and into a nice big pot of soup.  On the 12th I was at my grandson's for turkey dinner, and met my youngest GGD  "H" for the first time.    "H", was wearing a knitted dress that I made for her mother, my grand daughter "C", when she was six months old, thirty years ago.  I had forgotten about the dress, but so happy it has lasted all of that time and still being worn.  

My DD2 was with her family on that weekend,  so last week I invited them over for a Thanksgiving dinner.  All of us had had too much turkey so I opted for ham this time.

Friday's happy hours upstairs here in the apartment building and a special get together to see the Toronto Blue Jays win the deciding game, now on to the World Series.  They won the first game of that series last night, however, I did not see that one.

Treated my ex to a dinner, for his birthday.  

 Yesterday, Friday October 24th was the convocation for my youngest GD "C", (not the same "C" as mentioned above).  She had graduated from college with honours for the three years of flight courses she has taken, so proud of her.  Now onto to further education, where she is taking courses to be a flight instructor, so that will allow her to accumulate more flying hours.  She has been accepted by an airline,  so when those hours of flying are done, she can then go for more schooling for the airliners planes.  Another couple of years and hopefully she will be flying the plane that takes me on a vacation. 

I have not done much quilting during the summer, but working on a fabric confetti picture.  What this entails is me choosing the fabric I need, using Steam A Seam so that I can iron the fabric where I need it to be in my picture.  However, before I can do that, I cut the fabric into confetti size pieces, use tweezers to put it on the picture, then iron it on.  I know what you are thinking.  No!  I am not crazy, well maybe a little bit, however, I love doing this type of craft.  When it is completed I will show you a photo and you can then see how crazy I am.  

Well that is that for me today.

Have a great day.

Cheers.
