Hurt myself, again!!!!!!

Yesterday when I went out to feed & put fresh water out for the coons, I really hurt myself! It was the last time for the day. My Tom ran water lines to the back fence about 25 years ago. So I have a faucet right by the gate. That faucet gets a lot of use! It does not turn off like it use to!!
You have to really turn off the water, hard!! I turned the water off HARD! I pulled a mussel! My whole hand is swollen, & red. I am typing with my left hand only. Dr. Tom said I was not to do anything today, but put ice & then heat, then ice again on my hand. So I am putting ice & hot & ice again. I have only been out to feed & water once today. I will go out again when Tom comes home & he will turn off the water for me if I ask nicely.
See you all next time

Started a baby quilt top yesterday

I have never been much for patterns. I usually do my own thing. I
have made clothes, household things, and quilts. I have also made wallets and hand bags without a pattern. Yesterday I started a baby quilt top using a pattern, and it is hard!! A 6 inch block has 13 pieces in it. It is called a spinner, and it is suppose to be easy!! But for me, no.
I should be making my chair, arm covers, but you quilters know, we sometime get sidetracked. So next time I blog I will tell you how things are going.
I wish I had a digital camera, I could show you the start of my quilt top. It sure would make my blog more interesting! See you next time.

Ashamed

Yes I am ashamed I have not blogged in so long,and ashamed I have not done any quilting!!! I commented on Margerita's blog today, telling her about all the animals I take care of, and I did not tell her about ALL the animals! I realized when commenting how much time I spend for the animals. I told about all the water containers I have outside for all the critters, that I clean and put fresh water in everyday of the year no matter what! Freezing cold or raining cats and dogs!
Everyday!!! I also feed lots of animals too. I go out to do something for the animals 4 or 5 times aday.
I know I am not suppose to feed the wild animals but when I moved here my neighbor was feeding the possums and raccoons. He moved away 30 years ago and I have been feeding them every since. There was a time when I was feeding 3 foxes too. So it takes a lot of time!
See you next time.
