7) How about a movie? For me....out of the house is
more fun; I'm here too much already! Someone else's
house is fine-doesn't have to be at a theater.
(Though I am lucky enough to have $1.00 movies on
Monday nights at our local theater)

Well I was just sitting here thinking one of the biggest favors I could do for myself right about now was to develop a better plan for Things to do on Rainy Days...and by the look of that forecast I would say it should be a LONG list!... 1) Go Fishing! The fish tend to bite well in the rain! 2) Play Cards! Canasta was always a childhood favorite! Lately my family gravitates to "Florida Rummy" Do not play on the porch though, after a while the cards won't shuffle well when stuck together...LOL! !3) Read! Read! Read! I use the summer to catch up on all the magazines I don't seem to have time for the rest of the year, and, since I have been trying to cut down on clutter, I'm tossing them out or passing them on just as soon as I have read them! I still don't do quite as good a job letting go of Quilting Mags though...LOL! 4) Go for a walk in the rain! I have to keep reminding myself...What's 'gonna happen? You're going to get wet? Who Cares?!! 5) Well of course you can quilt all day long! 6)..and it's a great time to catch up on Organizing/Cleaning/ Letter writing. As far as that C-word goes, I like to do one of those big uggy chores that actually takes some time. {Last week I moved all the furniture upstairs--maybe it was 2 weeks ago...it's been raining so much I don't remember...LOL!} 8) Hit the Garden Center!...How I love being around all those brightly colored flowers on a rainy day! Oh! That just reminded me that I saw the most beautiful flower arrangement in a blog this week! It was a row of different colored hydrangeas, arranged 2 to a container...in purple and blue aluminum tumblers along a fireplace mantle...I wish I could remember where I saw it! This will help you imagine it!
There are also things I would suggest that a person NOT do on a rainy day... 1)Watching Infomercials...please...someone get me a rope... Okay so that's only ONE thing, but I really really mean it! LOL! Meanwhile...more important than all of today's marcia-babble... This next is an email posted on Karolina Kwilters on June 26th, and I think it should be shared to hopefully help find the owner... "On Sunday, June 21st, one of my neighbors found a quilt on
the westbound lane of Hwy 64 near Tarboro, NC. She says the quilt
was wrapped in one of those plastic blanket packages. The quilt
appears to be newly made, in wonderful condition. She says it is
hand and machine quilting. There is no label attached and she cannot
find a signature. She wants to return it to its owner, as she is a
needle worker, and says she would be sick if she lost one of her
works. Please pass this email around and if anyone knows
anything, email Alison Boyette at
mom4matkat@gmail.com " Happy Quilting Week! Marcia :o) " When it rains, make stew" No one really said that, it just seems like a good idea! |
