I Need To Plan My Days!

I know, that`s an odd title for a blog post. I knew some plans were not going to come together yesterday. The picture below shows my best intentions and that`s as far as it went.


Upper left hand corner. Half the ingredients for dog cookies made it to the table. Whole wheat flour, corn meal, soy flour and molasses. The measuring cup contains camomile tea, one thing I did follow through on. The tea is for kitty`s irritated eye and puppy`s sore tail where he was bitten by a neighbor`s dog. The quilt blocks were supposed to be cut to start  a small disappearing nine patch quilt. The blocks were gifted to me a few years ago! Dare I admit that? Why a day of no accomplishment? A half day spent in town shopping and later in the day, the KIRBY!!!


This is a workout and it does a great job. I have to be in the right mood to drag this puppy around the house and I make the most of it. I was tired when I finished but I won`t have to clean tomorrow. We live on a dirt road and there is constant dust. I am disappointed this vacuum is no longer made in the states. There`s more plastic than metal. 


This picture shows thick ice we dug out of our prospecting equipment last week. This is the machine that washes the dirt leaving the heavy gold behind at the top the sluice (the long narrow box) It was under 20 degrees at night. Today we are over 60 degrees and will be all week, yea!


Thank you for visiting. I appreciate it. Next post there will be sewing pictures, I promise!
