August #6

Good morning 
I didn’t mean to disappear but last week was different than I thought it would be.  The 3 grands that live in our school district were here 3 days and then they went to school for 2 days,  and now, in person schools are already closed again because Covid rates jumped way higher in our town.  Our schools will be doing virtual learning for a while.  
My husband made a last minute and unexpected trip to his parents in Arkansas.  He is home now.  
Anyway,  the theme of 2020 seems to be plans change at the drop of a hat.  

So, here is my new to do list - notice the repeats of the meals because they didn’t get cooked last week.  

The empty circle doesn’t mean anything- I’ll write something in it later.  



➡️➡️➡️link for a new mask style ⬅️⬅️⬅️

My daughter asked me to sew this style mask.  The pleats are vertical instead of horizontal and it’s supposed to fit looser over the wearer’s mouth.  
I made just one and she tried it on and thought she liked it better so I’ll sew up a couple more this week.  
And if you follow this video and pattern,  the mask is fine but she says 2.6 inches and 1.8 inches πŸ€” ( not exactly how Americans do fractions). So I just got as close as I could.  The video maker normally uses metric.   And I lengthened the elastic to 7 inches instead of 6 as specified.  



Speaking of masks,  this is how my daughter is keeping up with her family of 5 and their masks - who ever imagined we would need masks organization?  But we do! 
The bag is for masks that need laundered,  I think that’s a great idea.  



My husband picked these beautiful peppers and scrawny radishes this morning.  So I’ll be processing some of them this week.  


And last week was so weird, so I worked 2 puzzles,  with a little help from grandchildren and Nina.  
This one was a really nice puzzle with big, sturdy pieces.  I think it was a handmedown puzzle as when I buy puzzles,  I buy mine at Dollar Tree or Walmart and this was a much higher quality one.  


Hope you all have a good week.  
I’ll be staying home until virus  things settle down in our town

August #5 - to do list

Good morning everyone 

3 grands will be here some this week and then they start school Thursday.   

We had scrambled eggs and English muffins for breakfast because on my Walmart pickup order, they were out of the 1 package of name brand muffins I ordered so they substituted 6 packages of Great Value muffins instead, for the price of the 1 name brand package.  



That’s a lot of muffins, right?


The 3 grands that are here today attend a brand new school that was just completed during last school year.  
The architect firm took some professional photos to showcase their work. 
Because my daughter is a school employee,  she signed up her children to model.  
Isn’t that an amazing elementary library?  It’s a shame the virus is keeping it from being used.  

Have a good Monday everyone!
So many of you have left the sweetest comments.  I’m glad my blog brings some help and happiness to you.  
Thank you all for your kind words.
