QUILT-ZILLA IS COMPLETE! Also, bye Wisconsin.

I've been working on a quilt for over a year (long story) and finally finished the binding today. I worked on it in the car, during intermission at Cinderella, and at other random times in between everything else happening during the last week. Pictures someday.

I spent...hmm...roughly 18-20 hours driving between Tuesday and Saturday, and I'll be in the car for a 3 hour drive to the airport tomorrow. I was blessed to see many wonderful friends...so good. The week also included:

Eating sushi for the very first time (stickier than I assumed...)
Searching for a match on State Street to light a cupcake candle
A poem about an onion
Driving in the rain & fog & sunshine
Going for coffee and consuming no coffee at all
Dilemmas involing the La Crosse Family Restaurant
Home-made bread and one absolutely good-natured baby
Pancakes in taxidermy central
A new baby, new paint, and introducing a small child to the word "whack" (not pertaining to the baby)
Getting an impromptu bath during a hibachi/teppanyaki dinner
Giggling at stick-on mustaches
Washing the same white pants two days in a row
Crazy woman glasses
A family picnic
Neon ugly step sisters
Lots of hugs & good-byes

Last night in Wisconsin for a lonnnng time. Stars and moon, I like you from this side of the world. Looking forward to seeing you yet another way. : )
